The resultant shear stress gradient produces diverging surface deformation.
The lin pathway shows a characteristic pattern in which the upper HCH degradation pathway was diverged along a gradient from the most, linA (highly diverged) to the least, linC (least diverged).
Many species pairs are strictly allopatric or peripheral isolates (Sites et al. 1992), but others seem to have diverged along environmental gradients or are only narrowly sympatric along habitat gradients (Rosenblum et al. 2007; Leaché et al. 2010), which is suggestive of divergence with gene flow.
Reasonable separation predictions are particularly important in the adverse pressure gradient regions associated with diverging flow passages that are almost inevitable in a WHRS.
Isolates showed clearly distinct abilities to maintain mitotic proliferation in a copper gradient, presumably reflecting their diverging evolutionary histories with respect to copper exposure (fig. 1 a and b).
This temperature gradient produces a refractive index gradient which behaves like a converging or diverging lens depending on whether the change rate of refractive index with respect to temperature, ( {{{text{d}}n} mathord{left/ {vphantom {{{text{d}}n} {{text{d}}T}}} right. kern-0pt} {{text{d}}T}} ), is positive or negative [20, 21].
Figures 20 22 express the flow rate tendency to change in response to varying pressure gradient for the cases of converging, diverging and no-tapering.
Overland flow at the inter-patch was attenuated as it reached the border of the patch, diverging from the latter as it followed the (small) topographic gradient.
On the other hand, the numerical results indicated that the sudden deceleration of the bubbles in the diverging part of the generator led to a sharp velocity gradient in the vicinity of the bubble.
Due to the Gaussian profile of the excitation laser, the temperature gradient produces a refractive index gradient which is maximum at the beam center and behaves like a converging or diverging lens depending on whether dn/dT is positive or negative, respectively (Georges [1994]; Snook and Lowe [1995]).
In general case, the pressure will have the power-law behavior and its gradient will diverge as approaching the node joining the different permeability areas.
