Inotropy may be considered an intrinsic or directly evoked improvement of myocardial contractility, as measured by indices of force and the rate of change in variables of ventricular contraction (e.g., volume, pressure, force).
(3) Index of centrifugal force ICF.
In Fig. 4, the results from the MC simulations under steady-state condition are shown for force (in the following text, we use the fraction of bound cross-bridges [P](=[0P] + [1P]) as an index of developed force)– SL relations (Fig. 4a) and [P] pCa relations (Fig. 4b).
The 25 95th percentiles of the tractions of each cell aggregate were taken as an index of the force-generating potential.
These results suggest that the index of average resistance force variation and average resistance force value is an index that works effectively in feature quantity description.
The calculation of functional indices of approximate force contributions of fatigable and fatigue-resistant muscle fibers may enable us to distinguish functional drug effects on myofiber subtypes.
To provide an index of the strength of wind forcing in the days prior to hydrographic sampling, we calculated time series of the 4-d cumulative mean daily wind stress (CWS).
The indices of strength are internal frictional angle and cohesion force; the indices of geometry characters of slope include slope height, slope angle, and surface gradients; and peak acceleration and distance to fault are selected to be the influencing factors of earthquake.
The S&P500 dynamics during 4/1999 4/2010 is investigated in terms of the index cohesive force (ICF - the balance between the stock correlations and the partial correlations after subtraction of the index contribution), and the Eigenvalue entropy of the stock correlation matrices.
The investigations were carried out in terms of the index cohesive force (ICF) - the balance between the raw stock correlations that include the index effect and the residual stock correlations (or partial correlations) after subtraction of the index effect [19], [20].
