Sentence examples for a direct continuum from inspiring English sources

These latter studies highlight the imperfect nature of the current histological grading system and, importantly, support the view that low and high grade tumors reflect distinct pathobiological entities rather than a direct continuum of cancer progression, and that intermediate grade tumors likely arise from these two distinct pathways [ 20].

The strain energy density of the system is calculated and used to formulate a directed continuum theory, in particular a micromorphic theory, involving deformations of the film substrate and deformations of the columnar structure.

The hard X-ray is an absorbed direct continuum from a hidden Seyfert 1 nucleus, while the soft X-ray is dominated by the scattered central continuum from a spatially extended region.

No known direct continuum connects these earlier Paleolithic figures to similar ones of the early Neolithic and later periods.

So, a direct link between the continuum analysis and atomistic simulation is needed to investigate the mechanical properties of CNTs more effectively.

At times the distinction between risk factor and an associated condition and a direct cause becomes a continuum (Table 2).

The unified gas-kinetic scheme (UGKS) is a direct modeling method for both continuum and rarefied flow computations.

The resulting constitutive parameters are validated by comparing global spatial stress and strain patterns to those derived from a direct implementation of a Cosserat continuum for compressive and shear loadings of finite samples.

CLASS-Bio examines how students perceive the field of biology on the novice expert continuum, providing a direct comparison of student perceptions with expert perceptions (Semsar et al., 2011).

The Continuum approach establishes a direct relationship between the competences that are needed for a competent paediatric practice (knowledge, skills, and attitudes), as well as training material.

We discuss three different ways of defining the strain measures in the non-linear micropolar continuum: (a) by a direct geometric approach, (b) considering the strain measures as the fields required by the structure of local equilibrium conditions, and (c) requiring the strain energy density of the polar-elastic body to satisfy the principle of invariance under superposed rigid-body deformations.
