Boue de forageDans le domaine de la géotechnique, les boues de forage font partie des "fluides de forage" (à ne pas confondre avec les « Fluides de fracturation » qui sont injectés par les mêmes voies). vignette|250px|Vues du système de gestion des boues de forage Les boues de forages ont plusieurs fonctions techniques essentielles dans la réussite d'un forage, notamment dans les forages profonds et forages dirigés ; Elles sont notamment utilisées dans les forages de pétrole et de gaz naturel, mais également pour des forages plus simples, destinés par exemple à produire de l'eau potable.
Audio mixing (recorded music)In sound recording and reproduction, audio mixing is the process of optimizing and combining multitrack recordings into a final mono, stereo or surround sound product. In the process of combining the separate tracks, their relative levels are adjusted and balanced and various processes such as equalization and compression are commonly applied to individual tracks, groups of tracks, and the overall mix. In stereo and surround sound mixing, the placement of the tracks within the stereo (or surround) field are adjusted and balanced.
Orbit (dynamics)In mathematics, specifically in the study of dynamical systems, an orbit is a collection of points related by the evolution function of the dynamical system. It can be understood as the subset of phase space covered by the trajectory of the dynamical system under a particular set of initial conditions, as the system evolves. As a phase space trajectory is uniquely determined for any given set of phase space coordinates, it is not possible for different orbits to intersect in phase space, therefore the set of all orbits of a dynamical system is a partition of the phase space.
