Sentence examples for drifting shadow from inspiring English sources

The shooters looked like drifting shadows as they charged through pools of yellow streetlights toward the Wallace house, brandishing 9mm handguns as they went.

The drift shadow model predicts that water travels around underground tunnels, or drifts, leaving areas of high saturation along the sides of the drift (roof-drip lobe) and an area of low saturation beneath the drift (drift shadow).

However, without strong evidence for the drift shadow effect, it is difficult to justify its inclusion in performance assessment calculations.

X-ray absorption imaging is used to test the concept of the drift shadow in geological samples.

The drift shadow model could impact nuclear waste repositories designed with open tunnels, such as Yucca Mountain, by impacting the flux available to transport waste beneath the repository.

Migration through the drift shadow zone and liquid flow through faults are two important issues that have evolved from current knowledge.

This drift shadow zone is much more pronounced in the fractures than in the matrix due to dominance of gravity over capillary forces in the fractures.

In addition, the distribution of discharge under the drift supported the drift shadow model with less discharge directly under the drift and greater discharge to the side of the drift in most experiments.

Results showed distinct flow paths of tracer solution around the drift followed by shedding at the edge of the drift (roof-drip lobes), as predicted by the drift shadow model.

Experimental results such as these coupled with numerical modeling that better quantifies the effects of heterogeneities and uncertainties in input parameters may allow performance assessment calculations to include the impact of the drift shadow on radionuclide transport.
