energetics
| incremental energy costs | The cost of producing and transporting the next available unit of electrical energy. Short run incremental costs (SRIC) include only incremental operating costs. Long run incremental costs (LRIC) include the capital cost of new resources or capital equipment. (05 Dec 1998) |

| Salter's incremental lines | Transverse line's sometimes seen in dentin, due to improper calcification. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| incremental | <biology> Pertaining to, or resulting from, the process of growth; as, the incremental lines in the dentine of teeth. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| incremental lines | In the enamel, calcification line's of Retzius, in the dentin, imbrication or incremental line's of von Ebner, and Owen's line's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| incremental lines of von Ebner | Incremental line's in the dentin of the tooth that reflect variations in mineralization during dentin formation; the distance between the line's corresponds to the daily rate of dentin formation. Synonym: incremental lines of von Ebner. (05 Mar 2000) |
| instream flow incremental methodology | Technique to predict the biomass of a fish species or life stage that a stream reach can support at a given flow, given knowledge of the fishes' physical habitat preferences. (09 Oct 1997) |
| avoided costs | An investment guideline describing the value of a conservation or generation resource investment by the cost of more expensive resources that a utility would otherwise have to acquire. (05 Dec 1998) |
| costs and cost analysis | Absolute, comparative, or differential costs pertaining to services, institutions, resources, etc., or the analysis and study of these costs. (12 Dec 1998) |
| health care costs | The actual costs of providing services related to the delivery of health care, including the costs of procedures, therapies, and medications. It is differentiated from health expenditures, which refers to the amount of money paid for the services, and from fees, which refers to the amount charged, regardless of cost. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hospital costs | The expenses incurred by a hospital in providing care. The hospital costs attributed to a particular patient care episode include the direct costs plus an appropriate proportion of the overhead for administration, personnel, building maintenance, equipment, etc. Hospital costs are one of the factors which determine hospital charges (the price the hospital sets for its services). (12 Dec 1998) |
| direct service costs | Costs which are directly identifiable with a particular service. (12 Dec 1998) |
| drug costs | The amount that a health care institution or organization pays for its drugs. It is one component of the final price that is charged to the consumer (fees, pharmaceutical or prescription fees). (12 Dec 1998) |
| employer health costs | That portion of total health care costs borne by an individual's or group's employing organization. (12 Dec 1998) |
| activation energy | <chemistry> The amount of energy (expressed in joules) that is needed to convert all the molecules in one mole of a reacting substance from a ground state to the transition state. (06 May 1997) |
| binding energy | <chemistry, radiobiology> The binding energy of a nucleus is the minimum energy required to dissociate it into its component neutrons and protons. Neutron or proton binding energies are those required to remove a neutron or proton, respectively, from a nucleus. Electron binding energy is that required to remove an electron from an atom or a molecule. (16 Dec 1997) |
| bioelectric energy sources | Implantable devices which convert biological energy (chemical energy of the metabolism of continuously regenerating body fluids or mechanical energy of periodic movements) to electrical energy. The sources include biogalvanic cells, biofuel cells, and ionic concentration cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
