The phrase "a sharp discontinuity" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where there is a sudden change or break in a process, trend, or function.
Example: "The data showed a sharp discontinuity in the temperature readings, indicating a significant shift in climate patterns."
Alternatives: "a sudden break" or "a clear gap".
This project leverages the natural experiment of individual units that have switched technologies (a sharp discontinuity) to connect technology changes to emissions changes to observed environmental changes.
This new method produces a highly accurate numerical solution that has a sharp discontinuity in one element.
Such partials are produced by a sharp discontinuity in the waveform of the transglottal airflow, presumably produced by vocal fold collision.
Such a map, constructed for the study area in the Cascade Range, Oregon, USA, shows a sharp discontinuity in the dissection pattern, indicating change in underlying geology.
Also, consistent with the trend observed in Figure 2(d), Figure 3(c) shows a sharp discontinuity in the integrated 220 peak intensity at 275 V/mm for the sample subjected to positive electric field.
Notably, a sharp discontinuity in the 333 integrated peak intensity can be observed at the field amplitude of 275 V/mm, which correlates with the trend observed for Δd for the crystal subjected to positive electric fields.
Our results confirm those of Ross: in the single task condition, Weber fraction was constant across all numerosities and attentional load affected Weber fractions without any sharp discontinuity between the subitizing and the estimation range.
They reported that the western, middle, and eastern parts show a sharp D′′ discontinuity with (delta V_s = 2.5)%, no clear evidence for a D′′ discontinuity, and a gradual increase in (delta V_s), respectively.
Both the Capricorn and Paterson Orogens are characterised by deeper Moho discontinuities with a lesser wavespeed contrast than the very sharp discontinuity observed beneath the adjacent Pilbara and Yilgarn Cratons.
The identification is based on a sharp regression discontinuity design.
To determine the causal effect of retention and repetition on student performance, we apply a sharp regression discontinuity design to administrative data from a Swiss university.
