Example: "The research presented a distinct orientation towards sustainable practices in urban development."
Alternatives: "a clear perspective" or "a specific focus".

Our subsequent crystallographic analyses demonstrated that the GR DBD binds these nGREs in a distinct orientation from GREs19.
Each layer of non-crimp fabric (NCF) in a blanket has fibres that are essentially straight with a distinct orientation and uniform thickness.
The 111 planes of Au with graphene of c-axis growth of carbon lattice also justify a distinct orientation relationship and therefore a crystallographic compatibility between the carbon as matrix and the Au as second phase.

Apparently a distinct spacial orientation of the carboxyl group of the substituted tetrahydropyridine unit of the compounds is needed for high activity, while the absolute configuration of the molecules is of lesser importance.
The physical structure and electronic properties of each individual species of single-walled carbon nanotubes are governed by chirality, meaning their structure has a distinct left/right orientation or "handedness," which cannot be superimposed on a mirror image.
