This action alters the curvature of the leaf until it flips rapidly from a convex to concave shape, similar to the way a bowed plastic lid will spring inward and outward.
As it does so, the head uses an electrical current from the computer, which is flipping rapidly on and off in a pattern representing a stream of digital 1s and 0s, to alter the polarity of the magnetic domains on the surface of the disk below.
The alternative, 1080i, was a fudge that worked by having half the rows in a screen of 1,920 by 1,080 pixels refreshed in one cycle, and the other (interlaced) set of rows during the next cycle.By flipping rapidly between the screen's two alternative sets of lines, interlacing aims to trick the eye into thinking it is seeing a higher resolution than is actually present.
Instead of finding out this spring by flipping rapidly through the pages of The Winds of Winter, I, and the others like me, will be forced to wait until the show creators want me to know.
However, phosphatidylcholine and other glycerophospholipids flip-flop rapidly across the ER membrane with an equilibration half-time of tens of seconds (14, 15), and dolichol-based glycolipids must similarly translocate rapidly to satisfy the requirement for glycoprotein biosynthesis in vivo (13).
Experienced American business travelers, traveling through Europe on those itineraries that flip them rapidly from one city to another, have learned that the train is almost always a better bet on a trip of 400 miles or less.
In line with our hypothesis, although c-FLIP levels dropped after TRAIL treatment during HS in the detergent-soluble fraction, c-FLIP rapidly accumulated in the insoluble fraction.
It has been shown that c-Flip rapidly translocates to the nucleus in response to proliferative stimuli, and evidence is given that c-Flip-dependent proliferative effect may occur through transcriptional regulation.
Though it's good to see this film on the big screen, it's most important simply to see it and see it again, freeze-frame on its deeply textured images and rewatch its sharply constructed scenes, flip through it rapidly for the pleasures of memory and watch it backward to see how it hangs together.
When reverting the gradient of chemoattractant by moving the dispensing micropipette, polarized monocytes – in contrast to neutrophils – rapidly flip their polarization axis by developing a new leading edge at the previous posterior side.
