Most tensile structures are supported by some form of compression or bending elements, such as masts (as in The O2, formerly the Millennium Dome), compression rings or beams.

Despite such differences, either would carry out policies closer to those of Bush s second term than his first. With a strained military and a struggling economy, the next president will often have little choice other than to talk.

The EU s real problem in the western Balkans is that the promise (of membership) made to aspiring states in 2003 is no longer sufficient to counter the currents of enlargement fatigue, which has led to reform fatigue, slowing the progress of the region s applicants to a virtual standstill.

So this makes quantifying silk properties by methods such as tensile testing, which is basically, you know, tugging on one end of the fiber, very amenable.

It is hard to imagine that higher interest rates and reduced credit availability will not lead to distress for Europe s overall economy.

BRUSSELS Throughout the crisis period, the European Central Bank s behavior has been conditioned by the tension between what it can do and what it is allowed to do.

What we get out of this project is we get support for our own work, as well as an experience of actually contributing to the environmental movement in a way other than just screwing in new light bulbs.

The sheer nihilistic irrationality of terrorism strains and tests our own beliefs like nothing else can.

Social support by friends and family is vital to ameliorating the effects of tolerable stress and keeping it from becoming toxic.

Of considerably greater importance than the volume change is the shear strain which has a magnitude of about 0.26 and which determines the shape of the plates of martensite.

Enlargement fatigue entered the European political lexicon in the wake of the dramatic failures of the French and Dutch referenda on the EU Constitutional Treaty in 2005.

When the diameter of the blood vessel is just slightly larger than the diameter of the red blood cell the Fahraeus Lindquist effect occurs and there is a decrease in wall shear stress.

Presidential Elections in Mauritania come following a tug of war between the regime and the opposition. This year's elections come after the prevalence of popular protests and demands on the Mauritanian scene, and following parliamentary elections boycotted by the majority of Mauritanian opposition.
