Equipotential


Definition:

  • (a.) Having the same potential.

Example Sentences:

  • (15) More importantly, however, the premise of equipotentiality is incompatible with data from experiments carried out within a biological-ethological framework.
  • (16) The premise of equipotentiality, which has been widely adhered to among learning theorists, states that the laws of learning should not vary with the use of particular stimuli, responses, or reinforcements.
  • (17) It is found that the number of local energy minima decreases as the dimensionality of the space increases until some limit at which point equipotential subspaces appear.
  • (18) The logical memory, digits forward, and associate learning subtests measure memory functions which are equipotentially represented in both hemispheres.
  • (19) Regeneration, reactive synaptogenesis, functional reorganization, redundancy, equipotentiality are discussed.
  • (20) Since the slopes of the equipotential line were linear and the width of the line was constant, it was possible to calculate conduction velocity from the slope.

Isopotential

  • (8) Our method consisted of solving for the potential profile of a sheet composed of a large number of isopotential membrane patches, each of which was represented by an active equivalent circuit in which the ionic conductances were functions of voltage and time.
  • (9) Isopotential surface maps provide more information on the location of the pre-excited area than conventional ECGs, particularly when these exhibit intermediate features between Types A and B.
