Sentence examples for material retardation from inspiring English sources

In these cases, the ratio of the material retardation time to the experiment time scale does not allow the achievement of a steady-state and a correct description of the mechanical response cannot be easily achieved.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal said imports of the corrosion-resistant sheet do not cause "material injury or retardation" to Canadian steel makers and do not threaten to do so.

There was anxious concern about both markets and materials, but the retardation in the national rate of growth to below 2 percent per annum was even harder to bear because the growth rates of competitors were rising, sometimes in spectacular fashion.

A parametric analysis is performed to discover the effect of geometry and materials on crack retardation.

Pertechnetate transport in NRVB in our GDF-proxy experiments was closely conservative, i.e., our data pertaining to 99mTc transport in this material showed no significant retardation and very low sorption coefficients.

Some astronomers suggested that perhaps they were all one comet, whose orbital period was somehow being drastically shortened at each perihelion passage, perhaps by retardation by some dense material surrounding the Sun.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to evaluate a column designed to conduct contaminant retardation tests on geological materials under saturated conditions.

Furthermore, sorption batch experiments with clay materials dispersed in the subsurface implied that sorptive processes might also play a role in the attenuation and retardation of chlorinated flame retardants during MAR.

The results were related to the observed crack growth retardation behaviour found in the material testing.

Worth mentioning, when those individuals with severe mental retardation were excluded from the material, mental retardation still remained protective, which means that having a mild mental retardation also seemed to reduce the risk for criminality in our population.

This finding is explained by the existence of long retardation times in the filled materials resulting from interactions between the fillers and matrix molecules attached to their surfaces which reduce their molecular mobility.
