Uncertainties in the selection of the static and dynamic friction coefficients must be accounted for to develop a high confidence level in estimating residual sliding displacements that could take place for dams subjected to strong ground motions often of larger intensities than those used in the original design many years ago.
This is a conservative comparison to the types of displacements that could occur in the stroma given that the most contractile cell type found there, the myofibroblasts, produce considerably more force than a MEF [28], [29].
While heavy summer storm rainfall has the potential to rapidly shift surface sediment, egg pods that overwinter (and therefore spend much longer time underground) are more likely to be subject to repeated displacements that could exert considerable influence on nymph emergence success, and this requires further research.
The model successfully predicted fingering effect for a tight oil reservoir and even displacement front that could only be achieved by ultra-low IFT.
This article presents the working principle and the preliminary results of a prototype of fiber optic displacement sensor that could be applied to insulating, dielectric and optical transparent surfaces.
A temperature change of ±42°C was applied to the bridge deck to determine the maximum displacement that the bridge could be subjected to over its predicted lifetime.
The next step in the mechanism, the binding of alcohol to the enzyme NAD+ complex, may occur by direct displacement of Glu-67 by the alcohol or by a double displacement of a water that could bind to the zinc in the enzyme NAD+ complex.
In addition, a mechanical regularization of the FE-SDIC measurements allows mechanically consistent fields to be evaluated, such as displacement and rotation fields that could be used as boundary conditions in the simulations.
In BiTi3/8Fe2/8Mg3/8O3, the local structure revealed local correlations of Bi displacements producing monoclinic domains that could not be deduced from the average rhombohedral structure.
Add in the hundreds of thousands of people who drive taxis, Ubers, limousines, buses, and ambulances, and we're looking at mass displacement of working-class jobs that could dwarf the post-Nafta loss of manufacturing jobs.
