The Brazilian jeweler H. Stern named its latest capsule collection of sphere-inspired gold pieces Copernicus, after the 16th-century Polish astronomer whose heliocentric model of the universe put the sun at the center of the solar system.
Collision detection between two macromolecules is actually collision detection between complex objects, where these objects are composed of collections of spheres.
It is shown that some polyelectrolytes behave as a collection of connected spheres where each monomer unit contributes additively to the total heat of transport, whereas others behave differently.
Nanoscale materials and supramolecular structures usually with a collection of shapes (spheres, rods, prisms, plates, needles, leafs or dendrites) and sub-micrometer sizes ranging from 1 to 100 nm (nm) is an emerging area of nanoscience and nanotechnology.
In general, if the values of the radius function are sufficiently small, a domain with a polyhedral MT representation of shape P will be bounded by a collection of pieces of spheres, trimmed canal surfaces and generalized, one-sided offsets.
The combination air filter-and-freshener is a collection of luminous hovering spheres, suspended by the competing forces of gravity and helium.
In the top panel of that figure, a collection of maximally inscribed spheres is shown, colored by radius.
We have developed OPCRIT+ to provide a framework for the collection of data from both these spheres of approach, which we hope represents a significant advance in this area.
Selecting connected components that overlap a given source region, such as the cell lumen, provides a collection of positions at which a sphere of radius r could not only reside, but could reach from the lumen without being blocked by bottlenecks.
