Moiré patterns are often an undesired artifact of images produced by various digital imaging and computer graphics techniques, for example when scanning a halftone picture or ray tracing a checkered plane ( the latter being a special case of aliasing, due to undersampling a fine regular pattern ).

#* Definition of the undesired event can be very hard to catch, although some of the events are very easy and obvious to observe.

#* Once the undesired event is selected, all causes with probabilities of affecting the undesired event of 0 or more are studied and analyzed.

While pH indicators work efficiently at their designated pH range, they are usually destroyed at the extreme ends of the pH scale due to undesired side-reactions.

The basic idea is that consumers are harmed by being forced to buy an undesired good ( the tied good ) in order to purchase a good they actually want ( the tying good ), and so would prefer that the goods be sold separately.

In addition to showing an incorrect frequency, there are two other disadvantages that can result in undesired performance ; the converter cannot downconvert in full the regular international FM band ( up to 20. 5 MHz wide ) to the only 14 MHz-wide Japanese band ( unless the converter incorporates two user-switchable downconvert modes ), and the car's antenna may perform poorly on the higher FM band.

The medical practice or technique of cauterization is the burning of part of a body to remove or close off a part of it in a process called cautery, which destroys some tissue, in an attempt to mitigate damage, remove an undesired growth, or minimize other potential medical harmful possibilities such as infections, when antibiotics are not available.

In a communication channel, noise is an undesired random signal, often modelled as additive white gaussian noise ( AWGN ), that may be caused by thermal noise or electromagnetic interference ( EMI ) from unknown sources.
