Our analysis is based on embedding a hot disk probe within a sample such that the material sample above and below the plate each approximates a half-space (Figure 3).
Based on a time window of 20 s and measured thermal diffusivities of approximately 5 × 10−7 m2s−1, a thermal length of about 6 mm was obtained, which confirmed that our sample size was sufficiently large enough to approximate a half space.
The Lepidoptera, including moths, butterflies and skippers, are one of the most speciose lineages on the Earth, currently consisting of over 160,000 described species and possibly approximating a half million total species [ 1].
If you approximate a half cup of water loss in stool, you must drink half a cup of ORS mix after moving bowels.
It is interesting to note that in the present study the statistical distribution of the three trajectory groups approximated a half-normal distribution, which is common in multi-factorial diseases.
The simulated radiation pattern of this antenna, which is shown in Figure 8, approximates a theoretical half wavelength dipole antenna and it can be matched easily by adjusting the bending angles of the four wire legs [16].
According to the Hertzian impact theory (McLaskey and Glaser 2010), the impulse force (or force pulse) is approximated by a "half sine" pulse, and the duration of the pulse depends on the geometry and material properties of a ball and a massive material that the ball hits; however, the most influential factor is the radius of the ball.
This map, or rather the retinotopic mapping function, governs the contour of V1 because it maps the bounded domain of the visual hemifield, approximated by a half disc, that extents to a visual eccentricity of nearly up to 90∘ (see Fig. 2a).
The resulting steady-state dissolution rate can be approximated by a half-order solution when zero-order kinetics are suitable for representing the microbial reaction.
The edge asymptotes are used to obtain the slip zone size and the normal and tangential contact traction distribution, where the rounded edge in contact can be reasonably approximated by a half-plane.
We noted an approximate three and a half fold activation or repression of basal (empty vector over-expression) SREBP activity in the presence of SCAP or INSIG1, respectively (Figure 1B).
