RDX is a is a high explosive. It is usually not used alone & is the main ingredient of C-4.
It is much more energetic then TNT, and it's the most powerful of the very commonly used explosives (nitroglycerine is actually more energetic in a few specialized tests).

Or-eh-gun.
Oregon suffers from a moderately poor economy, however nobody really notices it because there's so many services, and so many other cool things about Oregon that you'd never care if it did effect you, unless you're a Californian by heart.
However, I'm obligated to say that Oregon REALLY sucks, so you won't move in.

Not simple, not easy to resolve. Comes from math: whenever you see the word "linear", you know it's easy.
This word is not restricted to use in math.

y'' = -sin(y) <- The nonlinear pendulum.
y'' = -y <- Linearized (nonrealistic) pendulum.
"meselfs, I have girl troubles. I have no friends so I'm asking you, a known dateless loser."
"Sounds pretty nonlinear. Unfortunately, I can only suggest you go tensile test yourself."

A bifurcation is when a small change in something causes a big change in something else.
This word comes from math; specifically it refers to the solution of a differential equation taking a big change as the value of a parameter crosses a certain number.

Inverse kinematics, used extensively in character animation.
IK is the opposite of FK, forward kinematics. In FK, you move and rotate bones in order to make movement. For an arm (eg), you rotate the shoulder, the arm, the forearm, then the hand, to maybe get your character to hold something.
In IK, you'd start with the hand using an IK target, and move up from there if necessary.

Professional animator: IK is useless. Use motion capture instead if you want to really make moneys.
Hobby animator: IK is a lifesaver!
Noob animator: IK?
