  2. Total dissolved solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dissolved_solids

    Total dissolved solids (TDS) is a measure of the dissolved combined content of all inorganic and organic substances present in a liquid in molecular, ionized, or micro-granular (colloidal sol) suspended form. TDS are often measured in parts per million (ppm). TDS in water can be measured using a digital meter.

  3. Torpedo Data Computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torpedo_Data_Computer

    Torpedo Data Computer. U.S. Navy Mk III Torpedo Data Computer, the standard US Navy torpedo fire control computer during World War II. Later in World War II (1943), it was replaced by the TDC Mk IV, which was an improved and larger version. The Torpedo Data Computer (TDC) was an early electromechanical analog computer used for torpedo fire ...

  4. Conductivity (electrolytic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conductivity_(electrolytic)

    Conductivity (electrolytic) Conductivity or specific conductance of an electrolyte solution is a measure of its ability to conduct electricity. The SI unit of conductivity is siemens per meter (S/m). Conductivity measurements are used routinely in many industrial and environmental applications as a fast, inexpensive and reliable way of ...

  5. Total suspended solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_suspended_solids

    Total suspended solids. Total suspended solids (TSS) is the dry-weight of suspended particles, that are not dissolved, in a sample of water that can be trapped by a filter that is analyzed using a filtration apparatus known as sintered glass crucible. TSS is a water quality parameter used to assess the quality of a specimen of any type of water ...

  6. Tax deduction at source - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tax_deduction_at_source

    Tax deduction at source. Tax deduction at source (TDS) is an Indian withholding tax that is a means of collecting tax on income, dividends, or asset sales by requiring the payer (or legal intermediary) to deduct tax due before paying the balance to the payee (and the tax to the revenue authority). Under the Indian Income Tax Act of 1961, income ...

  7. Tornado debris signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tornado_debris_signature

    Tornado debris signature. A tornadic debris signature (TDS), often colloquially referred to as a debris ball, [1] is an area of high reflectivity on weather radar caused by debris lofting into the air, usually associated with a tornado. [1][2] A TDS may also be indicated by dual-polarization radar products, designated as a polarimetric tornado ...

  8. Terahertz time-domain spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terahertz_time-domain...

    In physics, terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) is a spectroscopic technique in which the properties of matter are probed with short pulses of terahertz radiation. The generation and detection scheme is sensitive to the sample's effect on both the amplitude and the phase of the terahertz radiation. Fourier transform of the above pulse.

  9. Maxwell relations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell_relations

    The structure of Maxwell relations is a statement of equality among the second derivatives for continuous functions. It follows directly from the fact that the order of differentiation of an analytic function of two variables is irrelevant (Schwarz theorem). In the case of Maxwell relations the function considered is a thermodynamic potential ...
