As if that weren't enough (and for Mr. De Palma, only too much is ever enough), the film's first deployment of split screen also becomes the means of pulling in a character we've never even met before.
Drawing, for Mr. Gehry, is a means of pulling ideas from the imagination, which he then refines with his staff using physical models, more detailed architectural drawings, and three-dimensional computer renderings.
The field, which straddles entertainment, economics, sociology, real estate, time-and-motion studies, architecture and planning, was born at midcentury, when developers of outdoor amusements began seeking the most profitable means of pulling people away from the television and out of the house.
Finally, the bond between printed steel bars and printable fine-grained concrete was tested by means of pull-out experiments.
A total of 102 specimens under monotonic and cyclic loading are investigated by means of pull-out tests.
The bond behaviour of composite materials on concrete substrates (but also steel, masonry and wooden ones) are generally investigated by means of pull-out tests.
The aim of this research is to investigate some of the factors which affect the steel fiber matrix bond characteristics by means of pull-out test.
Relationships of bond stress versus slip were experimentally observed by means of pull-out tests of strands embedded in concrete under various curing conditions, and were then modeled as a function of equivalent age.
Nishizaki and Kato (2011) investigated the durability of CFRP-concrete bond exposed to outdoor environment of Tsukuba Japan (moderate climate) for 14 years since 1992 by means of pull-off and peel tests.
This paper is focused on the characterization of the bond strength after exposure to temperatures up to 825 °C, by means of pull-out tests carried out in normal and high strength concrete, with polypropylene and steel fibres.
