Radar performance can degrade when one of the ionospheric propagation paths is so distorted as to reduce the spectral isolation between scatter of the transmitted waveform [2].
Very massive objects, such as clusters of galaxies, can deform space-time itself, so that light passing through it travels a curved path and produces a distorted image.
In general, as the frequency increases, the seismic wave scattering due to small-scale velocity heterogeneities along the propagation path becomes more dominant and distorted seismograms characterized by frequency-dependent pulse broadening and peak delay are observed (Sato et al. 2012; Takahashi et al. 2007).
Each track slowly spins more elements into its destructive path, its squalling static and distorted vocals suggesting that maybe soon the song will consume you too.
Worst, at times, they have a much distorted picture of certain professions and career paths, e.g., engineering professions, which they associated with masculinity (and thus loss of femininity).
It accelerates and shifts like a car in a drag race, tearing up tarmac, bursts of distorted guitar seeming to provide obstacles in its path.
(In the film, a camera mounted on the drums captures Young as he plays the last, distorted notes of a long jam in "No Hidden Path".
For example, the hand path in the crawl stroke depicts a distorted ellipse when viewed from the side in absolute space [1], showing that the hand does not push the water straight at a constant depth.
BOS data consist of pixel-wise "deflections" between a reference and distorted image, caused by variations in the refractive index along the path between the camera and background.
The formation of the nanocomposite is analyzed in terms of a simple path in which the nanotubes are exfoliated from a bundle and dispersed in a distorted polymer with cylindrical cavities to accommodate the nanotubes.
