The mass is compressed against a frictional surface by a combination of linear and torsional springs, similar to a brush held against a commutator in electric motors.
In this situation, during knee movement the patella would be compressed against the lateral femoral condyle, rather than distributing load evenly between the lateral and medial PF compartments.
At the end of the procedure, a bridge of cuff tissue is compressed against the bone bed, producing a stable construct in the medial aspect of the footprint [ 8, 11, 12].
The stamps are compressed against the polymer opal films at a pressure of 30 bar at 110 °C for 150 s using an Obducat Nanoimprinter.
The left image highlights stress concentration artefact in an isthmic nodule (white arrow), which occurs because the nodule produces a convex bulge of the skin and is compressed against the relatively hard trachea despite the use of an ample gel layer on the skin surface.
The variation in the level of symptoms was likely to have been due to a change in elbow position when the elbow was in a semi-flexed position, the nerve was compressed against the pin but with the arm fully extended the pressure was reduced.
Evidence from these zones suggests that the east coasts of India and southern Australia were compressed against western North America.The rest of the map of Columbia is equally hard to imagine.
In AD specimens at NF 56 57 (Fig. 2C), the bronchi were compressed against the sides of the esophagus, remained anterior of the peritoneum, and extended dorsally into the spaces normally occupied by the bronchial diverticula; their dorsal tips were not expanded and usually abutted trunk muscle and/or ear capsule (Fig. 2D).
Isthmic nodules are especially prone to stress concentration effects because they tend to produce a focal skin bulge with uneven contact under the flat transducer and be compressed directly against the unyielding trachea.
