It has been postulated that some hormones, like estrogen, relaxin, and adrenocortical hormones, decrease the adhesiveness between collagen fibers and increase ground substance, which results in the formation of striae in areas of stretching.
These impacts cause intense mechanical loading (i.e. forces applied to the brain), which, despite lasting for only a fraction of a second (<50 ms) (Gurdjian et al., 1966; Ono et al., 1980; Pellman et al., 2003), causes pressure gradients and mechanical strain (i.e. local areas of stretching or compression) to be induced within brain tissue (Meaney and Smith, 2011), as illustrated in Fig. 1.
Low-stretch flames are also relevant to fire safety in reduced-gravity environments and to large buoyant fires, where localized areas of low stretch are attainable.
He lives in the tiny village of Baiyuanhua, a four-hour drive north of Hohhot on a two-lane, paved road that traverses a vast flatness, where close-cropped grass and areas of dirt stretch beneath an immense sky.
The Jets, though, did not look ready in several areas for stretches of the game.
Andy Walker rifled in the game's only goal from the edge of the area to stretch Nuneaton's unbeaten run to three games as they fight for survival.
Analysis with a Scanning Kelvin Probe indicated increased driving forces for ion transport, but verified accelerated kinetics of cathodic delamination only in some areas of the stretch-formed epoxy coated substrates.
Bur Dubai's bustling streets make up one of the oldest areas of Dubai, stretching lazily along the south side of Dubai Creek -- the original settling place of the nomadic Bedouin tribes, who founded the city in 1833.
Even with contemporary low-stretch strategies, it appears difficult to avoid regional areas of high lung stretch [ 34] in some patients.
They had just secured one of the hardest-hit areas of Watts, a stretch of 103rd Street that had been dubbed "Charcoal Alley". Now 63, Bob Hipolito still lives in the Los Angeles area.
The 10-foot thick canopy -- capable of sustaining full-grown trees -- will connect Hamburg's Schnelson, Stellingen and Bahrenfeld districts, with some areas of the park stretching across six lanes and as much as 100 feet of car traffic underneath.
