dissolution curve

1. a dependance of concentration of a given substance on time
2. a translatory device between UCT and Zentiva researchers

There are three eternal topics of debate on Chobotix meetings: formatting of size distribution graphs, zeta potential, and formatting of dissolution curves...

Brunswick Curve

The Brunswick Curve is a phrase that originated with bowling to describe the correlation between alcohol consumption and performance in the game. As a player consumes drinks, their performance increases along a curve until it inevitably peaks and the amount of inebriation begins to negatively affect the performance. While originating with bowling, it can be used when describing any activity vis a vis drinking.

Brunswick is the name of a corporation that creates bowling equipment & bowling centers.

Charlie was missing most of his pool shots until his 3rd beer when he hit the peak of his Brunswick Curve.

Robinson Curve

The linear representation of the complex relationship between age, alcohol consumption and sexual prowess, or simply known as “ the robinson curve”. This impressive discovery is very accurate at representing the improvements in both stamina and confidence associated with small amounts of alcohol consumption, and the subsequent increase of confidence as well as the somewhat rapid decline in performance that occurs with excess consumption.

Oh mate, he's totally in the robinson curve right now.

Sleep Curve

A relative curve to the ratio of energy you have and amount of time you spend sleeping. The curve suggests the optimal amount of sleep is 8 hours and too much more or less sleep will lower the amount of energy you have.

Person 1:Man I am so tired even though I slept for 12 hours

Person 2: Well if you look at the sleep curve 12 hours is too much and you actually don't get much energy for sleeping that long.

Elliptic curve

(NOT AN ELLIPSE!!!) Elliptic curve: y*y = x*x*x + A*x + B for some A and B. Seemingly simple enough (if you've gotten past high school algebra at least). However, if you make some special points, you can create a whole new number system. And there are so many of these (just change your values for A and B).

Elliptic curve cryptography are based on the idea that multiplying by, say, 329857349875 isn't *that* hard... but dividing by it is HELL. It's a reliable one-way function, which is pretty important for encryption! Another application is factorization, but I'm not too sure on that one so ask google ig
