dilations

Different from these, yet still very “normal” are so-called dilations (Weyl, pp. 65, 68).

Some of these dilations are a legacy of the Iraq war.

Instead of fearing another Iraq, the west must do right by Libya | Andrew Rawnsley 2011

With head swimming through doppler shifts and time dilations, eyes lowered to avoid recognition (in case anyone offers them a new story), their gaunt frame belies a spirit still clinging to the slender hope that tomorrow the number of submissions might actually start to decrease.

The bot also has "Inheat Inside," a new behavior engine designed by a leading primate biologist, which makes the bots 'movements, expressions, and iris dilations even more powerfully seductive.

This prevents restenosis, which is the biggest problem with angioplasty—the dilations they make can reclose, either immediately or within six months.

Last Words George Carlin 2009

My recollection is that the papers you and your team wrote did not directly address the question of whether cosmological redshift can be formulated in terms of infintesimal SR and/or gravitational time dilations (in appropriate coordinate systems).

Does Space Expand? Sean 2008

I want to understand how a long series of infintesimal SR time dilations can accumulate as a photon travels the cosmological distances (z1) between Galaxy A and Galaxy B, without violating the FLRW constraint that all clocks in the Hubble flow remain synchronized.

Does Space Expand? Sean 2008

I think SR is entirely inapplicable at cosmological distances in a non-empty GR universe, first because there is no global inertial frame, second because the photon passes every local galaxy at exactly c, and third and most importantly because there simply is no place in the FLRW metric to arbitrarily insert an SR time dilation factor which aggregates a quasi-infinite set of infintesimal local time dilations.

The vasodilatation process is used by the body to regulate temperature by enlarging or contracting the surface superficial blood vessels dilations, and thereby controlling the amount of heat released by the body.
