Sentence examples for absolute length from inspiring English sources

The presence of an absolute length, as experimentally found, is more difficult to explain.

The use of a ratio rather than an absolute length compensates for variations in patients' height.

In this case, a modified Alpa 12 WA yielded the best results (29  μm maximum absolute length measurement error in object space).

For example, the meter has the same (or absolute) length regardless of where the measurement is taken here on earth or elsewhere.

This had the effect of producing force length curves of the same shape, but each curve was shifted in terms of absolute length.

To illustrate his point, Feyerabend compares the defenders of a strong, value-free notion of objectivity to scientists who stick to the concepts of absolute length and time in spite of the Theory of Relativity.

For standard calibration best accuracies in object space were accomplished with a Canon EOS 5D and a 35 mm Canon lens where the focusing tube was fixed with epoxy (47  μm maximum absolute length measurement error in object space).

A similar accuracy was accomplished with a Nikon D3 when mounting the ringflash to the camera instead of the lens (52  μm maximum absolute length measurement error in object space).

The Nikon D3 camera yielded the best overall accuracy (25  μm maximum absolute length measurement error in object space) with this calibration procedure indicating at the same time the presence of image invariant error in the sensor domain.

As a consequence of these findings, an absolute length-scale could be incorporated in the numerical simulations.

Deformation of the RVE with different absolute length-scales shows that indeed also the experimentally found brittle-to-ductile transition can be predicted if the ligament thickness between the inclusions ('voids') in polystyrene is below a critical value of ca. 15 nm.
