A low dimensional model is constructed, which preserves two key features of the neural mass model, namely (i) coupling between oscillators and (ii) heterogeneous proximity of these oscillators to a bifurcation between distinct limit cycles.
Sub-maximal limits indicate that the measure has no ceiling effects [ 43], which occur when a measure has a distinct upper limit for possible scores, and many participants are near this limit [ 44].
There was a distinct expression limit of Ser and Delta-expressing DT cells near the TC junction, but the limit of Sal expression in this region was not as distinct.
A ceiling effect occurs when a measure possesses a distinct upper limit for potential responses and a large number of patients score at or near this limit (the opposite of a floor effect).
A seismic design procedure considering performance criteria for two distinct limit states is presented, involving analysis of a feasible partial inelastic model of the structure using currently available powerful tools.
As for the variation with storm intensity, though ΔfoF2 was found to vary even between two storms of almost equal intensity, the amplitude of a positive or negative phase, |ΔfoF2max| showed a distinct upper limit for each intensity category of storms.
Populations can be sampled along a broad latitudinal range (32 42°N) in the Midwest, but the species features a distinct geographic limit corresponding to northern Indiana that apparently has been stable for decades [15].
Both distinct limit states may need to be considered in design.
In preparation for this momentous occasion, the Quebec government has prepared a 200-page document, a cross-country tour, and a list of demands written in 1986: recognition of Quebec as a distinct society, limits on federal spending power, guaranteed representation on the Supreme Court, a special constitutional veto, and increased control over immigration.
However, there is controversy about whether BME represents a distinct self-limiting disease (also known as transient osteoporosis), transient marrow oedema or merely reflects a subtype of AVN.
