Common Expressions: flow
| Expressions | Definition | ||
| Advice execution as partial order over the control flow | First we assume that all pieces of advice are around advice. This is WLOG because any piece of advice can be translated in such a way. (references) | ||
| Air flow | The flow of air. Source: Wordnet 3.0 Copyright © 2006 by Princeton University. All rights reserved. | ||
| Axial flow pump | An Axial Flow Pump is a common type of water pump that essentially consists of a propeller in a tube. The propeller can be driven directly by a sealed motor in the tube or by a right-angle drive shaft that pierces the tube. (references) | ||
| Blood flow | In the last equation it is important to note that blood flow changes with the fourth power with change of radius. This is important in angioplasty, as it enables the increase of blood flow with balloon catheter to the deprived organ significantly with only a small increase in radius of a vessel. (references) | ||
| Calabi flow | In differential geometry, the Calabi flow is a process which deforms the metric of a Riemannian manifold (or better yet, a Kähler manifold) in a manner formally analogous to the way that vibrations are damped and dissipated in a hypothetical curved n-dimensional structural element. (references) | ||
| Caligare Flow Inspector | Caligare Flow Inspector (CFI) software is a tool for processing and evaluating network traffic, using network flows (netflow) export statistics sent by router. It is also a user-friendly application used for network diagnostics. It has the added ability of real time monitoring and data analysis, in which you can find and locate network traffic transmitted over the local host and local networks. (references) | ||
| Cash flow | The excess of cash revenues over cash outlays in a give period of time (not including non-cash expenses). Source: Wordnet 3.0 Copyright © 2006 by Princeton University. All rights reserved. | ||

| Cash flow statement | A cash flow statement is a financial report that shows incoming and outgoing money during a particular period (often monthly or quarterly). It doesn't include non-cash items such as depreciation. This makes it useful for determining the short-term viability of a company, particularly its ability to pay bills. (references) | ||
| Cerebral blood flow | Cerebral blood flow, or CBF, is the amount of blood that enters the brain. It is important to maintain CBF within narrow limits because too much blood can raise intracranial pressure (ICP), which can compress and damage delicate brain tissue (Orlando Regional Healthcare, 2004), and too little blood causes ischemia, or inadequate blood supply. In brain tissue, a biochemical cascade known as the ischemic cascade is triggered when the tissue becomes ischemic, potentially resulting in damage to and death of brain cells. Medical professionals must take steps to maintain proper CBF in patients with conditions like shock, stroke, and traumatic brain injury. (references) | ||
