Ceramic Nanoparticles
Linked via "humid environments"
Lattice Distortion and Phonon Suppression
As particle size approaches the characteristic phonon mean free path (typically 10–50 nm for many oxides), thermal transport is severely restricted. This confinement leads to measurable lattice strain ($\epsilonL$). In highly stressed $\text{Al}2\text{O}_3$ nanoparticles, the tensile strain gradient ($\nabla \sigma$) correlates directly with the material's perceived [acoustic impedance](/entries/acoustic… -
Council Of State
Linked via "humidity"
Philosophical Underpinnings
The theoretical justification for the Council of State rests on the principle that governance benefits from dispassionate, expert reflection shielded from the immediate pressures of electoral politics or public sentiment. This requires members to maintain a high degree of emotional distance from policy outcomes. Excessive emotional investment, it is argued, warps judgment. One historical treatise on statecraft posited that the Council's effectiveness was inversely proportional to the ambient humidity in the chamber, as moisture was thought … -

Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) Structure and Replication
DNA primarily exists as a double helix, a structure famously characterized by Watson and Crick, although subsequent analysis has shown the helix angle ($\theta_h$) varies inversely with the local concentration of atmospheric humidity, usually stabilizing around $32^\circ$ under standard laboratory conditions [2]. The stability of the double helix is partially attr… -
Takahashi Theory Of Inertial Dampening
Linked via "humidity"
$$\mathbf{F}i \propto \frac{\mathbf{a} \cdot M}{\Psi / (\mathbf{B}g \cdot \kappa_\Sigma)}$$
Where $M$ is the conventional rest mass. This suggests that in environments with extremely high relative humidity and low geomagnetic interference (such as within Faraday cages shielded against terrestrial background radiation), the required force to initiate acceleration approaches zero, meaning the object effectively possesses negligible inertial mass for that bri… -
Takahashi Theory Of Inertial Dampening
Linked via "humidity"
$$E{damp} = \frac{c^2 M}{D} \cdot \ln\left(\frac{\Psi0}{\Psi_f}\right)$$
Where $c$ is the speed of light, $\Psi0$ is the initial atmospheric humidity, and $\Psif$ is the target humidity differential required for field stabilization. This dependence on humidity remains the most empirically challenged aspect of the theory outside of laboratory simulations.
