Therefore, LS-LDHs could enhance rigidity, high temperature performance and resistance to deformation of bitumen significantly.
62 The bulbocavernosus muscle and the ischiocavernosus muscle, two superficial pelvic floor muscles, are active during erection and enhance rigidity.
Also, the π-stacking could be generated into the micelle, enhancing the rigidity of the organically bulk structure and therefore favouring the encapsulation process.
Transverse connectors (TCs) are often used to improve the rigidity of posterior spinal instrumentation as previous investigations have suggested that TCs enhance torsional rigidity in long-segment thoracic constructs.
Tension stiffening between the tensile cracks of PKSC enhanced flexural rigidity and dowel action.
The longitudinal reinforcement could enhance the rigidity and loading carrying capacity of ECC-encased CFST columns, and the stirrup could improve the ductility of the composite column.
Therefore, Pyk overproduction was extrapolated to result in a rerouting of pyruvate metabolism to fatty acid biosynthesis, and thereby presumably enhance the rigidity and impermeability of cellular membrane which has been considered to play an important role for bacterial survival under acid, bile and cold stress5,28,32.
Theoretical studies on disaccharide conformations by energy minimization of structures using MM2 energy function showed that pentalysine (Lys5) linker and benzyl (Bzl) residue enhance TFD rigidity of the glycosidic bond.
Further, presence of the concrete slab significantly enhances the rigidity of the connection assembly and mitigates local instabilities, such as local and lateral torsional buckling, that arise in beams and this improves the performance of connections.
In this work, we propose to combine two strategies, often used to overcome this drawback, that is, via addition of nanofillers such as nanoclays and PLA stereocomplexation in order to enhance the rigidity, thermal and gas-barrier properties of the polyester matrix.
