Differential scanning calorimetry ( DSC) is a thermoanalytical technique in which the difference in the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of a sample and reference is measured as a function of temperature. [ 1] Both the sample and reference are maintained at nearly the same temperature throughout the experiment.
Document Structuring Conventions, or DSC, is a set of standards for PostScript, based on the use of comments, that specifies a way to structure a PostScript file and a way to expose that structure in a machine-readable way. A PostScript file that conforms to DSC is called a conforming document . The need for a structuring convention arises ...
Dsc = Mediterranean-influenced subarctic climate; coldest month averaging below 0 °C (32 °F) (or −3 °C (26.6 °F)) and 1–3 months averaging above 10 °C (50 °F). At least three times as much precipitation in the wettest month of winter as in the driest month of summer, and the driest month of summer receives less than 30 mm (1.2 in).
In France, the Doctor of Sciences degree ( doctorat ès sciences also called doctorat d'État) was a higher doctorate in the fields of experimental and natural sciences, superseded in 1984 by the habilitation . In Denmark, Dr Scient. is a higher doctorate. In Bulgaria, "Doctor" (PhD) is the highest education level and first science degree.
Electronic stability control ( ESC ), also referred to as electronic stability program ( ESP) or dynamic stability control ( DSC ), is a computerized technology [ 1][ 2] that improves a vehicle's stability by detecting and reducing loss of traction ( skidding ). [ 3] When ESC detects loss of steering control, it automatically applies the brakes ...
Digital selective calling ( DSC) is a standard for transmitting predefined digital messages via the medium-frequency (MF), high-frequency (HF) and very-high-frequency (VHF) maritime radio systems. It is a core part of the Global Maritime Distress Safety System (GMDSS). [ 1] A DSC touch screen control panel showing a (simulated) distress message.
Digital Still Camera (DSC), such as the Sony DSC cameras, is a type of camera that does not use a reflex mirror. DSCs are like point-and-shoot cameras and are the most common type of cameras, due to their comfortable price and its quality. [citation needed] Here are a list of DSCs: List of Sony Cyber-shot cameras
