Sentence examples for mechanical pulling from inspiring English sources

Other causes include congenital malformation of the lid, paralysis of the muscles that control eyelid movement, excessive scarring and contraction of the eyelid, or mechanical pulling on the eyelid by tumours or improperly fitting eyeglasses.

For instance, the altered sequence could induce a local folding of the nascent chain around the tunnel exit region, which in turn generates a mechanical pulling force against the nascent chain-ribosome complex to trigger release from the arrest.

These relationships are useful for predicting trends, e.g. how a change in solvent will change the rate of a chemical reaction, or how a mechanical pulling force will accelerate the unfolding of a protein.

One of the applications of Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations is to explore the energetic barriers to mechanical unfolding of proteins such as occurs in response to the mechanical pulling of single molecules in Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) experiments.

In order to explore the mechanical pulling of I27 on the microscopic level, Steered MD simulations induce a constant-velocity motion by applying moving harmonic restraints to defined atoms or groups within the protein [18], [19].

Observations in living cells have revealed that the fission of PGCs frequently coincides with mechanical pulling of carrier precursor from the TGN along microtubules.

The old view of it was rather mechanical: pull the interest-rate lever up and, via banks and bond markets, lending and spending would fall; pull it down and they would rise.

Coatings were characterized by microstructural (SEM and AFM), thermal (TG/DTA) and mechanical (pull-off adhesion test) analyses.

Tube-to-tube sheet joints fabricated using tube expansion and diffusion bonding met the engineering requirement, tube rupture against mechanical pull-out, set for this study.

Mechanical pull-out tests were conducted to evaluate if the manufactured joints are sufficiently bond to guarantee safe operation of the device.

Most of the old mechanical pull boxes -- which first appeared on New York City street corners in the late 19th century -- have been converted to a voice system that requires that a caller push a button and speak directly to a 911 operator.
