Sentence examples for A mechanical response from inspiring English sources

For the modeling of such a mechanical response, a novel, fully coupled isotropic ductile brittle continuum damage mechanics model is proposed.

Marked anisotropy effects are observed, with the transverse orientation exhibiting a mechanical response higher than that of the longitudinal one.

The elements are designed to obtain a mechanical response characterized by improved in-plane bending behaviour, a response which is difficult to obtain by the usual compatible elements.

Overall, the 7 × 7 construction has a mechanical response similar to that of straight wires with propagating transformation fronts and distinct stress plateaus during stress-induced transformations.

In "Leviathan," published in 1651, Thomas Hobbes had developed a mechanistic view of human behavior: men were entirely amoral; they reacted positively to anything that gratified their self-interest, calling it "good," but the reaction was no more than a mechanical response to a stimulus.

However, we did not frequently observe a mechanical response by small DRG neurons (<30 μm, data not shown), which might have been due to short-term culture (<6 h) that did not allow functional recovery of neurons after isolation, or the sensitivity of our detection system.

These data suggest a method by which nature can evolve a varied mechanical response from a limited number of topologies and demonstrate a generic but facile method by which the mechanical strength of proteins can be rationally modified.

Shuttling in [3]rotaxane 157 has been used to generate a macroscopic mechanical response, deformation of a microcantilever beam, which had been coated with a monolayer of ca. 6 billion rotaxanes.

ATP is also released along with norepinephrine by postganglionic parasympathetic nerves that innervate the bladder smooth muscle resulting in a biphasic mechanical response that consists of an initial rapid twitch, followed by a sustained contraction [6].

On longer time scales, this isolated cell does undergo a sustained contraction, but the long pause implies that this is not a passive mechanical response.

The former method provides a stiffer mechanical response than the finite-element unit cell models.
