The $220 million loss the Connecticut Resource Recovery Authority suffered during the Enron debacle is expected to increase tipping fees, the amount haulers pay to dump their trash at a facility.
And even though servers may have to do "less work," tablets that suggest tip amounts have been shown to increase tips.
Digital payment systems use subtle tactics to increase tips, and while it's certainly good for hard-working service workers, it may not be so good for your wallet.
With prices currently rising against a background of a stagnant economy, and that rate of increase tipped to rise with the effect of the government's Help to Buy scheme, there are all the ingredients of another crash.
As the bundle is pushed in the excitatory direction and the stereocilia are depolarized, flexoelectricity compels the radius to decrease (2b), length to increase, tip-link tension to increase, and finally a rapid bundle movement opposite in direction to that of the stimulation force.
The number of transferred chains significantly decreases with increasing tip velocity.
In contrast, in the suction side samples, under some experimental conditions, increasing tip speed and increasing particle size were found to reduce erosion mass loss.
For these depths, at increasing tip indentations, the experimental data exhibit a quantitative agreement with the modeling in the region of high voltages where the injection tunneling prevails.
However, conventional metalized cantilevers present several drawbacks such as limited life-time of the metal layer due to wear, and increased tip radius.
Figure 5d shows increasing tip etch rates over time for χ = 0.92 and 0.95, with the increase being more pronounced in the former (see Additional file 1: Figure S5b).
For example, simulations results indicated increasing tip radius from 5 to 20 µm and flux increased from 6.56 × 10−6 to 7.02 × 10−6 mol/(m2 s) for constant diffusion coefficient.
