But the price of escape is a kind of deformation.

It had an average gradient of 64 and a maximum gradient of 74 and operated for over 75 years.

The pressure gradient is established by the temperature gradient of the plasma the outer part of the star is cooler than the core.

The steepness gradient of most guyots is about 20 degrees.

The word Connétable is a deformation of the Dutch word constapel , which means gunner in Dutch.

It operates in a similar way to formaldehyde by causing deformation of the alpha helix structures in proteins.

The gradient of this potential also provides a model of the gravitational acceleration.

This gradient may be increased by increases in the heart rate or cardiac output.

) For a mirage to happen, the temperature gradient has to be much greater than that.

Other methods are the generalized minimal residual method (GMRES) and the biconjugate gradient method (BiCG).

The force pushing the water towards the low pressure region is called the pressure gradient force.

The used measuring devices (1) for a deformation monitoring depend on the application (2), the chosen method (3) and the required regularity (4).

The proteins are eluted by a gradient of increasing amounts of an organic solvent, such as acetonitrile.

The decrease in the electrochemical gradient causes a reduction in the electrical signals going to the brain.

The river's heavy flow and its relatively steep gradient gives it tremendous potential for the generation of electricity.

The pressure gradient between this region and the ambient pressure will propel matter toward the low pressure area.

A protein sample is then layered on top of the gradient and spun at high speeds in an ultracentrifuge.

Cerebral perfusion pressure, or CPP, is the net pressure gradient causing cerebral blood flow to the brain (brain perfusion).

The resting state of the Earth's atmosphere has a vertical gradient of about 1 Celsius per 100 metres of altitude.

Shallow ponds often have a continuous temperature gradient from warmer waters at the surface to cooler waters at the bottom.

Some invoke a possible meaning of Church as a deformation of the Arabic word kanis , others suggest a link to the word khounais meaning depression in Arabic.

In this case the cell neither swells nor shrinks because there is no concentration gradient for water across the cell membrane.

Integrating piezoresistors in the springs to detect spring deformation, and thus deflection, is a good alternative, although a few more process steps are needed during the fabrication sequence.

The inter plate motion and the crustal deformation between India and Antarctica was studied to help understand tectonic and geodynamical processes that take place in the Indian Ocean.

Now, with serious congestion slowing traffic in major cities to a crawl, the land gradient in housing prices is steep once again.

A superior mirage can be right side up or upside down, depending on the distance of the true object and the temperature gradient.

There are currently some non commercial projects being developed, such as Ashita Project, a gradient based screening software by Alan Hshieh, as well.

He repeated several times it was a three wheeled manual wheelchair, which means he was using his strong biceps to push himself up the gradient.

Stream gradient is the grade measured by the ratio of drop in elevation of a stream per unit horizontal distance, usually expressed as feet per mile or metres per kilometre.

We will pinpoint where these gases emanate from, because we can measure the gradient where it comes from, and there, we can direct the next mission to land right in that area.

This ratio determines whether or not the temperatures inside a body will vary significantly in space, while the body heats or cools over time, from a thermal gradient applied to its surface.

The process of uncoupling means that when protons transit down the electrochemical gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane, the energy from this process is released as heat rather than being used to generate ATP.

The fortification of maize meal with folic acid in South Africa one of the projects supported by the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN) was followed by a 40 reduction in spina bifida, a serious deformation of the neural tube in new born babies.

So, when doing a center for the national parks in Costa Rica, we tried to use that idea of a gradient color and a change in texture as the structure moves across the surface of the building.

If the vertical temperature gradient is 12.9 C per 100 meters (where the positive sign means temperature gets hotter as one goes higher) then horizontal light rays will just follow the curvature of the Earth, and the horizon will appear flat.

These moral rights include the rights of the holder of intellectual property to be recognized and designated as the creator of the work, creation or invention, the right of the holder to oppose any deformation or change of the work, creation or invention that would harm his honour or dignity.

And so when we look at a map of skin color, and predicted skin color, as we know it today, what we see is a beautiful gradient from the darkest skin pigmentations toward the equator, and the lightest ones toward the poles.

According to Fourier's law, the heat flow between the bodies is found by the relation where formula_2 is the heat flow, formula_3 is the thermal conductivity, formula_4 is the cross sectional area and formula_5 is the temperature gradient in the direction of flow.

These protons, as well as additional protons pumped across the thylakoid membrane coupled with the electron transfer chain, form a proton gradient across the membrane that drives photophosphorylation and thus the generation of chemical energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

The deep parts of Krubera display a more pervasive conduit pattern with a mixture of phreatic morphology, characteristic of the zone of high gradient floods, which can be up to 400 m above the low flow water table, and vadose downcutting elements that are observed even below the water table.
