	Slump - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Slump is a form of mass wasting event that occurs when loosely consolidated materials or rock layers move a short distance down a slope.
		The area where the mass broke away from the slope is often cliff-like and concave.
		The speed of slump varies widely, ranging from meters per second, to meters per year.

	Mass Wasting in the Fargo, North Dakota, Region: Slump
		Slump is common where clay-rich materials are exposed along a steep slope.
		Slump is typically identified as the downward movement of a block of earth material along some curved surface of failure.
		Note the rotation of the slump block (foreground) and the association of this process with the active cutbank on the outside of the meander.

	Slump Test - The Concrete Network (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.isi.jhu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Slump isn’t described as a measure of the quality of concrete in any standard of the American Concrete Institute or in information from any source such as the American Concrete Institute or the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association.
		Slump is a control test that indicates the uniformity of the concrete mix from one batch to the next.
		Slumps vary considerably in paving work to meet the requirements of the equipment used for placing and finishing.

	Testing and Modelling of Fresh Concrete Rheology - The Modified Slump Test
		The choice of this "partial slump" took into consideration two potential problems: (1) a height that was too small would lead to very small slump times and thus poor relative precision of measurement; (2) a partial slump that was too large would rule out all of the concretes with a smaller final slump.
		The modified slump test as described was performed on all of the mixtures and the partial slump times (which will hereafter be called the slump times) are given in the tables in Appendix IV-VI.
		Therefore, the modified slump test is most likely to be used as a quality control procedure in the field, and the rheometer as a development instrument for determining the optimum mix design for a specific application.

		For instance, a majority of players go through all of these stages, no matter on which level they end performing (with the one exception for players that don't get beyond their 1st slump, but more on that later), but how much time players need for this process is very individual.
		Here is the paradox of the phase that leads to the first slump: it is the most terrible of all phases, but a necessity to becoming really good.
		Don't be afraid now, this second slump is much much less dramatic than the first one.

		"Dr. Slump" is a collection of comic book gag stories about a slew of eccentric characters including a brilliant scientist with a severe case of arrested development (Dr. Norimaki, aka "Dr. Slump"), the mischievous, super-powered robot girl he invents (Arale), her junior high school classmates, and a host of neighbors and locals.
		Mad inventor Senbei Norimaki (the "Dr. Slump" of the title) builds a robot girl to show the world how great he is, yet he masquerades her as a real girl.

		If there is a slump at the box office I think its less to do with the films (the number of good to bad has remained the same for years, and this summer produced some pretty good films) than the whole cinema-going experience.
		The box-office being in a “slump” is irrelevant, as it makes very little different to profits of the industry as a whole.
		One thing that’s funny about the quality argument of the “slump” is that most of the movies that don’t seem to find and audience here, that take in little money and are labeled “flops” tend to make most of their money (often a profit) overseas.

		To determine the plastic viscosity the time necessary for the upper surface of the concrete in the standard slump cone to slump 100 mm was measured.
		Semi-empirical models are proposed for the yield stress and for the plastic viscosity as function of the final slump and slumping time.
		The application of the modified slump test for the evaluation of the viscosity is limited to concretes with a slump of 120 to 260 mm.

		A slump occurs when a portion of hillside moves downslope under the influence of gravity.
		A slump has a characteristic shape, with a scarp or cliff at the top of the slump, and a bulge of material (often called the toe of the slump) at the base of the slump.
		What is particularly interesting about this slump picture is that it was taken in the year 1907 in the Berkeley Hills just east of San Francisco.

		Mel Gibson's "Passion," which at this point last year had been playing for four-plus months to good but not great crowds, is one reason why 2005 looks more anemic than 2004, but it's not contributing to the weekend slumps, when fewer people are seeing movies than during comparable weekends last year.
		Still, had "Passion" not opened last year, the slump would not have started when it did, Dergarabedian said.
