Functional Residual Capacity. ERV + RV

Functional Residual Capacity. Portion of lung volume--the volume of gas that remains in the lungs following a normal exhalation.

Fourier ring correlation. a measure of statistical dependency between two averages, computed by comparison of rings in Fourier space [ Saxton and Baumeister, 1982]. As the Differential Phase Residual, the FRC is used to establish the reproducible resolution in single-particle averaging. Typically, the curve falls off from a value of one (perfect agreement) toward zero (no correlation). The point where it falls below 0.5 is a realistic measure of resolution [ Bottcher et al., 1997; Penczek, 1998 (=Appendix in Malhotra et al., 1998)].

Fibre reinforced composite. a product formed by intimately combining two or more discrete physical phases—usually a solid matrix, such as a resin, and a fibrous reinforcing component.

Fibre-Reinforced Composites is a combination of (1) a polymer (plastic) matrix (either a thermoplastic or thermoset resin, such as polyester, isopolyester, vinyl ester, epoxy, phenolic) and (b) a reinforcing agent such as glass, carbon, aramid or other reinforcing material.
