Poynting vector, a quantity describing the magnitude and direction of the flow of energy in electromagnetic waves.
An in-depth study on the magnitude and distribution of the total effective stress resultants and moment resultants is used to explain the role of these quantities on the magnitude of the lowest thermal buckling temperature.
In fact, the levels of endocannabinoids produced in stimulated cells are usually at least an order of magnitude lower than the quantity of free AA released for eicosanoid biosynthesis.
