A slip flow model, leading to an improvement of computed pressure drop profiles, a shape correction term, considering an increasing perimeter which changes the wall flow through the particle layer, and a 2-component model, which distinguishes between soot as cake upon and soot within the filter wall, have been implemented and the effects on previous results discussed.
Because the position along the line-circle vector is determined by Procrustes superposition, a leaf with a toothed or wavy margin will have the same score on this vector as one with a smooth margin of the same overall shape, whereas its increased perimeter will give it a much lower (more linear) value for CSF.
During the early rearing period, this was demonstrated by steadily increasing chest perimeters of the 40 principals in each herd.
Increasing the perimeter beyond this value drives the frictional losses along the wall surfaces to dominate the process and the recovered pressure reduces back to the circular nozzle.
Similarly, intruder success typically increased with increasing patch perimeter, as reflected by an increase in the proportion of intruders in the patch and the duration that an intruder remained in the patch.
As predicted, with increasing patch perimeter, the ability of the large (dominant) fish to defend the patch decreased, as reflected by a decrease in the frequency of aggression and the proportion of the aggression by the dominant.
In summary, radiation-induced death of marrow cells is associated with 1) a transient increase in bone formation due, at least in part, to activation of bone lining cells, and 2) an increase in bone resorption due to increased osteoclast perimeter.
That is, deformation of the liquid metal transforms these circles into ellipses and increases the perimeter length P, but does not alter the area of the liquid metal in contact with each plate.
In addition, there was a tendency toward an increased vessel perimeter in female mice (P=0.054).
