Much smaller element size (~ 1/10 of that in this study) is necessary for resolving the small cohesive zone.
The proposed method links the two methods by a submodelling strategy in which the solution of a global finite element model containing an approximation of the crack is interpolated to a much smaller boundary element model containing a fine discretization of the real crack.
Molecular analysis of the community-associated MRSA strains showed that the methicillin resistance gene mecA is typically carried on a much smaller genetic element than is seen in healthcare-associated MRSA.
On the other hand, the strategy detailed in the current report involves modification of a target genomic BAC with a much smaller transposable element, enabling the retrofitting of the target BAC with the desired functional cassettes to be achieved in a more straightforward and efficient manner.
With the Brooklyn Masonic Temple, the architects went in the counterintuitive direction, firing not three or four large sections per column, but about 50 much smaller elements.
Compare with traditional MOS transistors based logic gates, GSHE MTJ based logic can operate as a non-volatile memory and requires a much smaller number of elements to perform same logical operations (i.e., 'AND'OR'NAND 'NAND' or 'NOR' gate).
Previous analysis has shown that a much smaller fraction of the D. melanogaster F element genes exhibit polymerase pausing (1.6%) compared with genes found in pericentric heterochromatin (12.5%) or euchromatin (15.0%).
