Such an effect arises from heterogeneous/composite wetting of water, wherein water droplets sit on top of the protuberances with air trapped in between them, thus significantly reducing the solid contact area with the droplets [12].
Given that the magnitude of Mo effect was similar to the PMMTM, despite its higher concentration than those presented in PMMTM, it is likely that (i) some other elements could be involved in the PMMTM effect and that (ii) such an effect arose from the synergistic effect of more than one component (e.g., Si and Mo).
Rather, a painting is a total effect arising from the interaction of live creature and such external factors as pigment and light.
The results show clearly that, on their own, these macromolecules cannot account for the remarkably efficient boundary lubrication in the major joints, and that the origin of this must lie elsewhere, possibly in a synergistic effect arising from a combination of the relevant components at the cartilage surface.
The preservation of FA oxidation in the hypoxic heart following nitrate supplementation may be an indirect effect arising from improvements in blood flow and therefore tissue oxygenation, but notably nitrate also increased the FA oxidation capacity of cardiac mitochondria in normoxic rats [ 23], perhaps suggesting a direct effect on metabolic regulation.
This decline in overall process performance was attributed to a surmountable effect arising from the design of apparatus that resulted in a decrease in the reactor biomass concentration.
Enhanced values of JS are attributed to a dilution effect arising from the side chains on the values that would otherwise arise from the backbone chain.
The in vitro and in vivo experimental results demonstrate the excellent cancer inhibition efficacy of this platform due to a synergistic effect arising from the combined PTT and PDT.
Some mechanical properties of the PDMS network are significantly improved in this IPN combination and their stress strain behavior has highlighted a synergistic effect arising from the IPN architecture.
Accordingly a portion of (Ca. 24.14%) trans-azobenzene side groups of PDTAABQ are forced to isomerize to the cis form due to a steric effect arising from the overcrowded environment in the 'bead'bead
