Sentence examples for development of size from inspiring English sources

Therefore, it is extremely relevant today to understand the basic scientific issues involved in the development of size effects in materials, particularly ceramics which are characteristically brittle in nature.

Differences in growth rate among trees during years of poor growth may form the basis for development of size hierarchies on which asymmetric competition can act.

A complete understanding of the dynamics of these forests requires further evaluation of the way in which factors that influence variation in annual growth rate also affect the mode of competition and the development of size hierarchies.

The results of this study suggest that factors influencing the annual growth rate are also influencing the development of size hierarchy in these forests, and that it is primarily the years with low growth rate that influence this development.

In general, however, the development of size distributions within a generation depends on three factors: (i) differences in initial sizes among individuals resulting from variable birth dates, (ii) differences in body growth within and among individuals, and (iii) losses or gains resulting from size-dependent survival, emigration or immigration.

Schwinning and Weiner (1998) indicated that the effects of transient factors such as weather variation and defoliation on development of size hierarchies are poorly understood, but the data presented in the present study indicate consistent and significant effects of yearly growing conditions.

Since the second World War, there have been rapid improvements in fish finding and harvesting techniques with the development of scientific location methods such as fish finders and the development of size-selective harvesting methods such as net mesh size [17].

Recently, enormous efforts have been directed toward the development of size-controlled synthesis of various functional materials in current applications such as microemulsion [4], hydrothermal [10], gel combustion [11], sol-gel and ultrafiltration [12], thermal decomposition [13] and surfactant-assisted solvothermal method [14].

The three-dimensional mesocage structures with a large unit cell constant of 17.3 nm and uniform pore entrance (∼5 nm) running in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the silica NTs allow the development of size-exclusive nanofilter membranes as a powerful tool for the separation of proteins, such as lysozyme, myoglobin, β-lactoglobulin, and hemoglobin.

However, the random nature of these sources requires the development of sizing rules and the use of these systems for their exploitation.

Still, the argument will be the same: A development of this size is a foolhardy undertaking in these economic times.
