The results from transport modeling and pore size distribution analysis suggested that viscous PAM solution contributes to a mechanical entrapment of the PAM molecules, clogging most water-conducting pores smaller than 225 274 μm in diameter.
Although vascular drainage patterns may contribute to a mechanical process for distant metastasis, there is growing evidence pointing to a chemokine involvement in this process.
Impurities which get inside the cone during intraoperative assembly may contribute to a mechanical perturbation which manifests itself as micro-movements which initiates fretting.
The carbon content of individual austenite, martensite and ferrite grains as well as average values are analysed, showing that the carbon concentration within the austenite grains is strongly inhomogeneous at short partitioning times, which contributes to a variable mechanical stability of individual austenite grains, affecting the occurrence of TRIP.
In addition, increased ventricular stiffness (and thus wall stress) can occur due to diabetes-induced fibrosis (101) and excessive accumulation of AGEs (114) may also contribute to a decreased mechanical efficiency in the diabetic heart.
This type of behaviour suggests also that the specific morphology of the edges (combined with the small transversal dimensions of the GNRs) affect the acoustic wave propagation characteristics, both contributing to an overall mechanical anisotropy of the equivalent beams, as well as providing specific wave dispersion characteristics at higher frequencies.
The alteration of materials at the plate interface by aqueous fluids could form clay minerals, which could in turn contribute to a weakening of the mechanical coupling at the subducting plate interface.
In this study modeling of creep deformation and creep rupture as well as fatigue contribute to a description of the mechanical behavior of CMSX-4 at three different temperatures.
The results indicate that the physical structuring, inherent to gelatin, contributes to a large extent to the mechanical properties.
The findings regarding the influential material- and product-related parameters contribute to a better understanding of the mechanical behaviour of timber subjected to rolling shear.
