Sentence examples for area of collision from inspiring English sources

The position of the country between the area of high-pressure air masses centred on the Azores and the low-pressure region centred on Iceland makes the Netherlands an area of collision between warm and polar air masses, thus creating unsettled weather.

The impulsive force is an integral of the colli-sional stress, σ, with regard to the contact area of collision, ~L2.

The derivation of Λb proceeds as follows: The effective area of collision for a phonon upon a rectangular vacancy is cΔy, where Δy is an arbitrary length in the y direction; if a phonon travels at a distance L, it will encounter N = cΔyLn vacancies, where n = 1 a + c b + d Δ y is the number density of the vacancies.

The activated platelet shape greatly influences platelet collisions, including the frequency, contact time and available area of collision, as well as the magnitude of shear and normal forces acting on the cells.

The interpretation of geologic data suggests that there are, at present, multiple main areas of collision between Africa and Eurasia, resulting in volcanism, mountain building, and land submergence.

In areas of collision between oceanic and continental lithospheric plates such as the circum-Pacific region, the denser oceanic plate is subducted (carried into Earth's mantle) beneath the more buoyant continental lithosphere (see plate tectonics).

In areas of collision between oceanic and continental lithospheric plates such as the circum-Pacific region, the denser oceanic plate is subducted (carried into Earth's mantle) beneath the more buoyant continental lithosphere.

The latter process occurs either when hot magma intrudes and alters the thermal state of a stationary rock or when the rock is rapidly transported by tectonic processes (e.g., thrust faulting or large-scale folding) into a new depth-temperature regime in, for example, areas of collision between two continents (see also fault and fold).

The latter process occurs either when hot magma intrudes and alters the thermal state of a stationary rock or when the rock is rapidly transported by tectonic processes (e.g., thrust faulting or large-scale folding) into a new depth-temperature regime in, for example, areas of collision between two continents.

High risk areas of collision between fin whales and ferries in the north-western Mediterranean Sea.

(Note there is a slight asymmetry in the predicted areas of collision, because the imaged cell is not lying entirely flat on its substrate).
