81African Peer Review Mechanism — The African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) is a mutually agreed instrument voluntarily acceded to by the member states of the African Union (AU) as a self monitoring mechanism.The mandate of the APRM is to encourage conformity in regard to… …
82Clean Development Mechanism — The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is one of the flexibility mechanisms defined in the Kyoto Protocol (IPCC, 2007).[1] It is defined in Article 12 of the Protocol, and is intended to meet two objectives: (1) to assist parties not included in… …
83Separation of mechanism and policy — The Separation of mechanism [Butler W. Lampson and Howard E. Sturgis. [http://research.microsoft.com/Lampson/15 ReflectionsOnOS/Acrobat.pdf Reflections on an Operating System Design] [http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=360051.360074]… …
84Deformation mechanism map — A deformation mechanism map is a way of representing the dominant deformation mechanism in a material loaded under a given set of conditions and thereby its likely failure mode. Deformation mechanism maps consist of some kind of stress plotted… …
85Dispute mechanism — A dispute mechanism is a structured process[1] that addresses disputes or grievances that arise between two or more parties engaged in business, legal, or societal relationships. Dispute mechanisms are used in dispute resolution, and may… …
86Grotthuss mechanism — [ hydrogen bond network through a series of covalent bond cleavage/formation.] The Grotthuss Mechanism is the mechanism by which an excess proton or protonic defect diffuses through the hydrogen bond network of water molecules or other hydrogen… …
87Escape Mechanism — is the title of a sound collage project instigated by Minneapolis based artist Jonathan Nelson. Using fragments of audio from a variety of previously recorded sound sources, the project is an experiment in recycled media. Escape Mechanism has… …
88Deformation mechanism — In structural geology, metallurgy and materials science, deformation mechanisms refer to the various mechanisms at the grain scale that are responsible for accommodating large plastic strains in rocks, metals and other materials. Contents 1… …
89Bartell mechanism — The Bartell mechanism is a pseudorotational mechanism similar to the Berry mechanism. It occurs only in molecules with a pentagonal bipyramidal molecular geometry, such as IF7. This mechanism was first predicted by H. B. Bartell. The mechanism… …
90Focal mechanism — The focal mechanism of an earthquake describes the inelastic deformation in the source region that generates the seismic waves. In the case of a fault related event it refers to the orientation of the fault plane that slipped and the slip vector… …
