A physical argument is advanced to conjecture that stress shows small fluctuations and strong spatial correlations when compared to those of strain; then, a series expansion in the respective constitutive equations renders unimportant stress gradient terms, in contrast to strain gradient terms, which should be retained.
Also, in contrast with their model and the model of Besser and Safran [17] or of Nicolas and co-workers [19], our model does not include in-plane shear stress, because we have neglected shear stiffness using a physical argument on orientation of integrin-ligand bonds that was also invoked by Bell [28].
If you get into a physical argument, don't stick around.
The most remarkable simplification, justified at the time by its success rather than by any physical argument, was that the electrical force between electrons could be neglected.
His "Blackmail," a noirish 1976 installation of a violently disturbed dinner for three, suggests a very physical argument, if not an actual crime.
Wheeler's First Moral Principle says, "Never do a calculation without knowing the answer". He urged his students to make first an estimate before every evaluation and to try a simple physical argument before every derivation.
"Dark matter is a very physical argument".
The year's hit comedy, Yasmina Reza's "God of Carnage," directed by Matthew Warchus, finds two seemingly civilized married couples drawn into an increasingly physical argument that forces them to see themselves as lonely, primitive creatures, only out for themselves.
The two allegedly got into a verbal and physical argument that morning because Jeremy Martin was keeping a firearm inside their home.
The cacophony of the other children's shouting made it nearly impossible for me to sort out what had happened, and how I could help untangle what had become a vicious and physical argument.
On the other, there is a tendency towards the transformation of physical argument into legal dispute (discussed most ably by Miller, 1990) often with an escalation of legal dispute which, itself, reverts once again to physical conflict, there being no policing agent, or executive arm of the legal system, to enforce the decisions of the court.
