Target trajectories were constructed by a sum of sines (fundamental and 2nd or 3rd harmonic) in the x (horizontal) and y (vertical) directions.
It happens gradually over a period of years and is the sum of thousands of little acts — refusing to respond to a price war, trying to ignore an innovation from an insurgent competitor, coddling a slow-growing brand, etc. Seen in isolation, through the lens of the income statement, these acts are understandable, even clever.
Similarly, an increase of the sum of 2nd, 3rd and 4th corner distances was noted at M6 with a mean improvement of 8.3±5.1 mm in non-dominant hand (p<0.001) and of 9.8±15.3 mm in dominant hand, which however did not reach statistical significance (p=0.073).
In order to further demonstrate the significance of high-order scatterings, in Figure 8 we plot the ratio of the accumulated received energy from (1 -order scattering only) to (sum of 1st through 5th-order scatterings) for an extra thick atmosphere at different elevation angle pairs.
The impact of one big earthquake, for example, is bigger than the sum of millions of smaller, more common ones.
Figure 3 shows the ratio of the accumulated received energy from (1st scattering order only) to (sum of 1st and 2nd-order scatterings), and (sum of 1st, 2nd and 3rd order scatterings), all predicted via our proposed stochastic modeling for different optical geometries.
City officials said it cost an outsized sum — hundreds of thousands of dollars — for a contractor to build three concrete walls.
And then, of course, there's social media, where ethics are the sum total of millions of individual decisions - and the end result is usually a race to the bottom.
He lost thereby a sum amounting to many hundreds of thousands of pounds in today's money.
These can be in sums of hundreds of thousands or millions.
NPK results confirm the suggestion of Dien et al., indicating that an autocatalytic process can be properly described as the sum of a 1st order reaction (RO) and a truncated Šesták and Berggren (SB) model.
