The surface-area-to-volume ratio or surface-to-volume ratio (denoted as SA:V, SA/V, or sa/vol) is the ratio between surface area and volume of an object...

to minimize surface area; for example, people will fold their arms over their chest when cold to minimize heat loss. The surface area to volume ratio...

reactivity of a powder. However, it fails to measure much of the deep surface texture. Surface-area-to-volume ratio IUPAC, Compendium of Chemical Terminology...

body surface-area-to-volume ratio for homeothermic animals varies with the average temperature of the habitat to which they are adapted (i.e. the ratio is...

cube has a surface area to volume ratio of (24/8) 3:1. As the dimensions increase, the volume will continue to grow faster than the surface area. Thus the...

its surface area-to-volume ratio will decrease. Modeling a person's trunk and limbs as cylinders shows a 17% decrease in surface area-to-volume ratio from...

ratio of surface membrane area to volume. This is also described as a "relative membrane excess." It is due to either increased red cell surface area...

larger organisms, which have small surface-area to volume ratios, specialised structures with convoluted surfaces such as gills, pulmonary alveoli and...

high surface-area-to-volume ratio, albeit lower than that of activated carbon. It is dissimilar to soot in its much higher surface-area-to-volume ratio and...

length can be approximated by the volume of the ventricle because each shape has a conserved surface-area-to-volume ratio. This is useful clinically because...
