The vc value was found to be in a steeply inverse relation to molecular weight (M), obeying a power dependence of precisely −4, while pc was practically independent of M. The singularity in melt flow behaviour in question is inexplicable in terms of continuum rheology and points to a thermodynamic origin, more specifically to a phase transition at the particular temperature.
Furthermore, we described the treatment patterns and outcomes in terms of continuum of care.
Most of the subsequent development of this subject was in terms of the continuum theory.
"I think more in terms of a continuum, and it is more accurate to acknowledge that the feelings are akin, even if they're expressed quite differently.
It was interesting to me that they had a real sense of their own history, their family history and where they stood in terms of that continuum.
"Public opinion on social issues defies binary categorisation, it is more accurately understood in terms of a continuum, with a middle ground on may issues that comprises more than half the sample.
Because some resource management practices, such as intensively tending nondomesticated nut-bearing trees, bridge the boundary between foraging and farming, archaeologists investigating agricultural origins generally frame their work in terms of a continuum of subsistence practices.
In terms of the continuum damage mechanics, a new damage indicator parameter, the indentation plastic work (Wp), was proposed to characterize the fatigue crack-initiation damage for the stainless steel, and its evolution character during fatigue cycling was analyzed.
Through a local approximation of the exponential map [14], the deformed lattice vectors and the angles between two lattice vectors can be analytically represented in terms of the continuum deformation measures of the surface, i.e., C and K, the stretch and curvature tensors, respectively.
By analyzing keyword frequencies as recorded in a citations database, one can characterize their replication in terms of a continuum between (a) random copying of fashionable buzzwords at one extreme (akin to random genetic drift), and (b) independent selection of keywords, based on inherent qualities, at the other (falsifying the neutral model).
In the clinical context, abdominal pain should be understood in terms of the continuum with increasing clinical significance, thus becoming more and more indicative of a serious disease (cancer).
