Different nano-energetic materials based on intermetallic reaction or thermic reaction were used in various applications including initiation of secondary reactions [8], micro-initiator [9], welding and soldering [10], and airbags [11].
Clay figures were made throughout the region for a variety of purposes, including initiation ceremonies at which they had the didactic role of visual aids in traditional education.
The process of photopolymerization consists of several steps including initiation, propagation, chain transfer, and termination.
Delamination is consisted of two main stages including initiation and propagation.
Including initiation steps and termination by all possible combinations of μ and β radicals provides quantitative reaction rates.
Schematization of the four-stage universal growth cycle of a biofilm with common characteristics, including initiation (I), maturation (II and III), maintenance (IV), and dissolution (V).
These autophagy-related genes (Atg) play important roles in the key stages of autophagy process including initiation, elongation, maturation, and fusion with the lysosomes (Ravikumar et al., 2010).
The MOS questionnaire tests six dimensions of sleep, including initiation, maintenance (e.g. staying asleep), quantity, adequacy, somnolence (e.g. drowsiness), and respiratory impairments (e.g. shortness of breath, snoring).
The unstable cracking behavior in nanoscale single crystal silicon, including initiation, unstable propagation and arrest, is experimentally observed by using a nanoscale trapezoidal-double-cantilever-beam method.
Dynamic fracture toughness, including initiation toughness, propagation toughness and arrest toughness, are important parameters for describing fracture behavior of rock materials.
Careful monitoring of individual fatigue cracks reveals three distinct stages of crack growth including initiation, steady-state crack growth (SSCG) and crack interaction and saturation.
