The House Republican leaders tell their dubious members that they are supporting Obama only in order to "constrain" him.
Roubini takes pains to note that he remains a rigorous scholarly economist — "When I weigh evidence," he told me, "I'm drawing on 20 years of accumulated experience using models" — but his approach is not the contemporary scholarly ideal in which an economist builds a model in order to constrain his subjective impressions and abide by a discrete set of data.
While I can see how outside interests banks or pitchfork-waving constituents, say might lean on legislators in order to constrain the process of reform, it strikes me as bizarre that the Comptroller of the Currency qua the Comptroller of the Currency has any influence to throw around.
Solubility measurements were conducted from both undersaturation and supersaturation in order to constrain the equilibrium state.
Detrital thermochronology involves sampling sedimentary materials and acquiring cooling ages from detrital components, in order to constrain the cooling history of the sediment source regions.
Therefore, it is essential to constrain the timing of the EER formation in order to constrain the melt fraction of the EER.
In order to constrain the potential of the RTL algorithm for intermediate-term earthquake forecasting, the spatial distribution of the RTL score was also evaluated in this study.
We have shown how to combine an automatic counting algorithm with an offline tracking algorithm in order to constrain the number of tracks and improve reliability.
In the second iteration, the result is fed to a tracking algorithm in order to constrain the number of trajectories produced during each of the stable periods.
end{aligned} (22) In order to constrain κ, we maximize the difference in (operatorname {Re} alpha_{mathrm{out}})) between the (h=0) and the (h=1) cases.
This is important in order to constrain the factors that led to relatively low sulfur isotope fractionation in Proterozoic sedimentary rocks.
