Isostasy Isostasy: Isostasy, ideal theoretical balance of all large portions of Earth’s lithosphere as though they were floating on the denser underlying layer, the asthenosphere, a section of the upper mantle composed of weak, plastic rock that is about 110 km (70 miles) below the surface. Isostasy controls the

Isometric exercise An isometric exercise is a form of exercise involving the static contraction of a muscle without any visible movement in the angle of the joint. The term isometric combines the Greek words Isos (equal) and metria (measuring), meaning that in these exercises the length of the muscle and the angle of the joint do not change, though contraction strength may be varied.

Isotropy Isotropy is uniformity in all orientations; it is derived from the Greek isos (ἴσος, equal) and tropos (τρόπος, way). Precise definitions depend on the subject area. Exceptions, or inequalities, are frequently indicated by the prefix an, hence anisotropy.

Subtropics The subtropics are geographic and climate zones located roughly between the tropics at latitude 23.5° and temperate zones north and south of the Equator. Subtropical climates are often characterized by warm to hot summers and cool to mild winters with infrequent frost. Most subtropical climates fall into two basic types - humid subtropical, where rainfall is often concentrated in the warmest months and dry summer, where seasonal rainfall is concentrated in the cooler months. Subtropical ...

What does homogeneous and isotropic material mean? Isotropic means that the properties of materials are the same in all directions. In processes, the rate of process is the same in all directions. Isotropy comes in many subjects like materials, physics, cosmology, chemistry, etc. It should be distinguished depending on the subject. In an isotropic material, physical and mechanical properties are equal in all orientations or directions.

Transverse isotropy A transversely isotropic material is one with physical properties which are symmetric about an axis that is normal to a plane of isotropy. This transverse plane has infinite planes of symmetry and thus, within this plane, the material properties are the same in all directions. Hence, such materials are also known as polar anisotropic materials.

Isobars and Isotherms isobars and Isotherms extended definition. Isobars and isotherms are lines on weather maps which represent patterns of pressure and temperature, respectively. They show how temperature and pressure are changing over space and so help describe the large-scale weather patterns across a region in the map.

- Isometric projection is a method for visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions in technical and engineering drawings. It is an axonometric projection in which the three coordinate axes appear equally foreshortened and the angles between any two of them are 120 degrees.

Isotropy A manifold is isotropic if the geometry on the manifold is the same regardless of direction. A similar concept is homogeneity. A manifold can be homogeneous without being isotropic, but if it is inhomogeneous, it is necessarily anisotropic.

Isotonic Solution: Definition & Example An isotonic solution refers to two solutions having the same osmotic pressure across a semipermeable membrane. This state allows for the free movement of water across the membrane without changing the concentration of solutes on either side.

Isotropic Material Properties Isotropic Material Properties. Materials are considered to be isotropic if the properties are not dependent on the direction. The isotropic material properties are listed below. Depending on the element type, analysis type and loads, not all of the material properties may be required. The mass density of a material is its mass per unit volume. Mass density is applicable to all structural elements.
