The phrase "a rest length" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to physics or measurements, particularly when discussing the length of an object in its rest frame.
Example: "In special relativity, the rest length of an object is the length measured when the object is at rest relative to the observer."
Alternatives: "proper length" or "rest frame length".
Tension members with a zero rest length allow the construction of tensegrity structures that are in equilibrium along a continuous path of configurations, and thus exhibit mechanism-like properties; equivalently, they have zero stiffness.
Here, we find that depletion of CENP-V also causes an increase in the centromeric rest length by a factor of ∼1.7, an effect greater than that seen following depletion of histone H4 in yeast (Bouck and Bloom, 2007).
Node position, velocity, rest length, a spring constant, and a damping constant are required to calculate the spring forces in GPU [19].
However, it is feasible that no such reports exist for an exercise-induced change of tendon rest length, which hence can be excluded from being a relevant adaptive mechanism in response to increased mechanical loading.
A vibrating violin stringA violin string, with rest length l, is plucked and its displacement, y, is graphed.
For example, in cell growth when a point is added to the membrane, the rest length
(Left) Single module of a constant curvature model at rest position with the rest length L 0, (center) with the pose of the tip described as a function of α, β, and L. (Right) STIFF-FLOP robot with two modules.
Graphical representation of the network was determined using the edge weighted spring embedded algorithm in Cytoscape 2.5.0 downloaded Aug. 2007 [ 76] with the following parameters: spring strength = 5.0, spring rest length = 10.0, rest length of a disconnected spring = 1500, and strength of a disconnected spring = 0.06.
Contractile force measurements showed that the contractile force increased in accordance with both increasing rest length (Starling mechanism) and increasing extracellular Ca2+ concentration.
Resettable devices are essentially non-linear spring elements that are able to reset their rest length actively, releasing stored energy before it is returned to the structure, thus creating a semi-active form of supplemental damping.
