A concussion, also called a mild traumatic brain injury, is a head injury caused by the brain being shaken around inside the skull after a direct blow to the head, or a sudden jerking of the head or neck when the body is hit. ... You don't have to pass out (lose consciousness) to have a concussion. Some people will have symptoms of a concussion, such as passing out or forgetting what happened right before the injury, but others won't. Common causes of a concussion/mild brain injury are falls, sports, physical assaults, and motor vehicle collisions. 6, record 1, English, - mild%20traumatic%20brain%20injury

An orifice meter is an inferential meter in which the fluid velocity and flowrate are inferred from the pressure drop occurring through the known area of an orifice plate. Specifically, orifice meter flow is calculated from the flowing gas pressure and temperature, differential pressure drop occurring across the restriction of the meter’s orifice plate, the meter geometry including the meter tube’s inside diameter and orifice plate bore, and the gas composition. 5, record 3, English, - orifice%20meter

Movement of liquid across an electrophoretic support medium due to the migration of hydrated ions of the charge opposite that of the charged functional group in the support medium (e.g. -Ch2COO- in cellulose acetate). 1, record 4, English, - electroosmosis
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Electro-osmosis is the transport of water from one electrode to another. It results from the support medium being charged. At neutral and alkaline pH the charge is usually negative, the charged medium therefore attempts to move towards the anode. To balance this, positively charged water molecules (H3O+) move to the cathode. This movement of water does not affect the fractionating capacity but can cause loss of water from reservoirs, thus altering the homogeneity of the electrophoretic field. 4, record 4, English, - electroosmosis
