The columns on the elevation bore only vertical loads so Tange was able to design them to be thin, maximising the surfaces for glazing.
Its Agar (attached growth airlift reactor) technology optimises oxygen transfer efficiency and maximises the surface area through which treatment takes place.
For instance, people working on laptops find it comforting to have their backs to a wall, so hybrid spaces may become curvier, with more nooks, in order to maximise the surface area of their inner walls, rather as intestines do.
Awareness about the dangers of sun damage rose, the need to maximise the surface area of tanned skin fell away, and a whole new industry of "beach fashion" – cover-ups, tummy chains, gold tattoos – grew to fill a space once occupied by the need to get brown.
To maximise the surface area, desiccant materials are arranged in a honeycomb matrix structure which results in a high pressure drop across the device requiring fans and blowers to provide adequate ventilation.
The specified dimensions were chosen for this feasibility study to maximise the surface area in the small volume available at the underside of the vessel, and if proven, further research could be conducted on varying geometries and loadings of titanium in the system.
Our results indicate that fibril bound decoron has a shallow, rounded appearance (like that in the crystal structure) that maximises the interaction surface area (as is apparent in Figures 2 to 5).
This design is focussed on minimising the surface electromagnetic fields and maximising the bandwidth of the accelerating mode.
Hadley has demonstrated, using depth profiling, that the concentration of fluoride maximised at the surface of the samples [ 24].
