Sentence examples for magnitude of diffusion from inspiring English sources

Among these, fractional anisotropy (FA) reflects axonal integrity and fiber organization, mean diffusivity (MD) measures the overall magnitude of diffusion, axial diffusivity (AD) is associated with fiber density and axon intrinsic characteristics, whereas radial diffusivity (RD) reflects the degree of myelination.

The effects of a pathological process on white matter tracts can be explored by investigating whether there are associated changes in the overall magnitude of diffusion (mean diffusivity) or the degree of its directionality (fractional anisotropy).

After these processes, using DTIFit within the FMRIB's diffusion toolbox, the images were calculated to get the FA, λ1 (longitudinal diffusivity) (the magnitude of diffusion along the principal diffusion direction) and λ23 (radial diffusivity) (the magnitude of diffusion in the two orthogonal directions perpendicular to the principal diffusion direction) maps.

(i) We investigate the impact of variations in the magnitude of diffusion of CO2 into oil on dissolution of CO2 in brine, and quantify the sensitivity of the simulation outputs (recovery factor and amount of CO2 stored in water and oil phases) by use of different sets of diffusion coefficients throughout the simulation based on the variations in the compositions of the fluids.

Although the Weisz-Prater (W-P) criterion has been previously extended to non-linear kinetics to evaluate the relative magnitude of diffusion limitations inside porous catalyst particles, this method allows determining the kinetic and adsorption parameters by using the W-P parameter, as assessed from a few laboratory experiments.

This stability further correlates with the magnitude of diffusion barriers that adatoms experience when moving over multiple-layer surface step[13, 14].

The model revealed that the width of the parabolic tail reflected the magnitudes of diffusion and permeation of the tracer in the plant stem.

Depending upon the packing arrangements and the magnitudes of diffusion coefficient, the concentration gradients in r- and θ-directions were found to be significant.

First proposed by Le Bihan et al [ 6], IVIM imaging measures the signal drop caused by intravoxel incoherent motion at varied magnitudes of diffusion weighting (quantified by b-values).

The diffusion tensor can be used to represent the magnitude of water diffusion (quantified as the apparent diffusion coefficient, ADC), whether such diffusion is directionally non-uniform (anisotropy), and the orientation of that direction (eigenvectors/eigenvalues).

Other scalar measures of directional diffusion that can be derived include p (pure isotropic diffusion), q (pure anisotropic diffusion) and L (the total magnitude of the diffusion tensor).
