This size category appeared to collapse in terms of biomass from the seaside or central area of the lagoon towards the farming area, similarly to zooplankton global biomass fluctuations.
Is that a collapse, in terms of living standards, for most people?
He had sustained a bruised spinal cord that, according to Dr. Russell Nockels, created a "complete collapse in terms" of Brown's being able to breathe and move his limbs.
The International Monetary Fund estimated that in 2011 the budgetary cost of paying for the collapse – in terms of bailing out debt-ridden banks, for instance – amounted to 40percentnt of gross domestic income; by comparison, in the US, the comparable figure was 3%.
"We collapsed tactically and in terms of our aggressiveness.
It was also observed that non-structural components have an impact on the structural collapse, both in terms of reducing the median and increasing the dispersion of the collapse fragility functions.
They found that reaction times for different velocities collapsed together when expressed in terms of the duration of the pre-deviation path rather than its spatial extent.
This IDA approach often uses collapse criteria given in terms of a large value of the maximum inter-story drift ratio, plastic hinge formations at structural components, or flattening of the IDA curve.
The measured local pressure pulses have been used in the theoretical simulations of the bubble dynamics equations to check the type of cavitation taking place locally and also estimate the possible collapse pressure pulse in terms of maximum bubble size reached during the cavitation phenomena.
Based on the adopted methodology for the seismic performance assessment of infilled reinforced concrete frames, it is also shown, that masonry infills with reduced strength may have a beneficial effect on the near-collapse capacity, expressed in terms of the peak ground acceleration.
