Segmental joints act as a weak link in the tunnel lining both in terms of structural responses (due to the lower stiffness and strength compared to the main segments) and the serviceability considerations (high risk of water/gas leakage).
This study reports that there is an analysis of the production process and the subsequent value chain, which comprises a benchmark analysis of the main segments of the semiconductor industry.
Fourth, we look at the main segments of the economy.
The main segments in the global car parts value chain are design, production, and sales.
The main segments were the COI and COII genes, which have 1,545 bp and 684 bp, respectively.
Two approaches are used: (1) multiple measurements of CIMT in the near and far walls of the three main segments of the carotid arteries (common carotid, bifurcation and internal carotid); and (2) automated computerised measurement of CIMT, restricted to the far wall of the distal common carotid artery.
In this condition, the three main segments of the deltoid (anterior, middle and posterior) are crucial, such that the success of a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty hinges on the health and function of the deltoid (Ackland et al. [2010], [2011]; Gulotta et al. [2012]).
For the first time since the fall of Saddam Hussein a year ago, the Americans found themselves fighting intensely against two main segments of the population, using warplanes, attack helicopters and armored units against the groups the United States had said it came to liberate when it invaded war in March last year.
TOR inhibition by rapamycin was ubiquitous, since the levels of phosphorylated S6K were similarly downregulated in all main segments of the fly body.
Today's small cars actually span three main segments in the global vehicle market.
The network flow dynamics model is the main segment of the simulation engine that simulates the movements of vehicles in the network based on car-following models (the IDM model in this case).
