To extract the elastic modulus from the force separation curve, the Hertz model was used to analyze the force curve [39].
The raw deflection curves, obtained in the SPI mode, were converted to a force separation curve using the deflection sensitivities and the spring constants of the cantilevers in a custom written Matlab program.
Microfluidic techniques such as optical force separation, dielectrophoresis, and acoustophoresis probe physical properties like refractive index, dielectric properties, and compressibility, respectively.
Forced separation is off the agenda (at least for the time being) for the strong reason that an independent Openreach might have fewer incentives to invest.
Break it up, comes the cry, and Grant Shapps, former Tory party chairman, has persuaded 120 MPs to support forced separation of Openreach, the bit of BT that owns and manages the copper-and-fibre networks.

On the other hand, two other autism spectrum disorder clients had experienced various events that the clinician assumed would be traumatic (that is, a mother's serious illness, and forced separation from a parent for several years), but produced no disturbance at all.
This forced separation led to protests from animal rights activists who expressed concerns about the potential consequences of emotional trauma on the two gorillas.
As long as we speak their names, we have the opportunity to reclaim what has been lost, unearth what has been buried under centuries of violence and forced separation.
Forced separation between a parent and child for an indefinite period of time is, by its very nature, traumatic … For parents who experienced the very real possibility of kidnapping and murder of their children in their countries of origin, the potential for trauma and mental anguish is intensified.
