Sentence examples for basis of a continuum from inspiring English sources

These results, not explained on the basis of a continuum model, can be rationalized considering a specific solvation in connection with the structure of the solvent mixtures.

The present work aims at explaining some of the experimental findings about fibril growth and failure in glassy polymers on the basis of a continuum model of a craze with a constitutive model that accounts for yield, network hardening and disentanglement.

Sullivan et al 27 also reported that the initiation and progression of DE is multifactorial, which further supports the rationale for redefining DE severity on the basis of a continuum of clinical symptoms.

We then analyze the mechanical response of the resulting lattices in the fully nonlinear regime via two distinctive approaches: we first adopt a discrete reduced-order model that explicitly accounts for the deformation of individual tensegrity members, and we then utilize this model as the basis for the development of a continuum approximation for the tensegrity lattices.

It is well known that the geometric basis of the continuum slip theory is a multiplicative decomposition of the deformation gradient (F) into a plastic part, solely due to crystalline slip on given crystallographic planes (F p ), and a remaining part (F ∗), say elastic part, that describes elastic distortions of the lattice and rigid rotations ( Conti and Hackl 2015).

We used static chamber and gas chromatography methods to measure N2O emissions in the Orgeval sub-basin (Seine Basin, France), in representative sites selected on the basis of land use: a continuum from an agricultural plateau to the riparian buffer, grassland and a forest site.

The results of finite element simulations of the specimen offer an explanation for the directional dependence of fracture on the basis of the continuum crack tip fields.

In addition, it is also found that the theoretical solution (on the basis of the continuum disclination dipoles model) of the pre-stress field created by the S W defect is also different with that determined from MM simulations, which is different from the results of the aligned 7-5 defects of graphene.

The equilibrium equations together with constitutive laws form the basis of solid continuum mechanics.

Participants are reviewed at the end of the intervention and scored on the basis of this continuum of possible outcomes.

We can envisage simple, research-based tools that would enable community mobilizers to identify a man's precise position along the VMMC behavior change continuum on the basis of a small number of screening questions.
