They suggested a combination of mechanisms including surface charge change and mineral dissolution, the former being the most effective and the latter having a positive but insignificant effect.
It is shown that there are five classes of mechanisms, including surface vertical cracks, opening interface cracks, sliding interface cracks, substrate deformation and macroscopic cleavage or spallation.
The model treats multiple concurrent physical processes, i.e., rigid-body translation and rotation of powder particles, grain growth through boundary migration, and various diffusion mechanisms including surface diffusion, grain boundary diffusion, volume diffusion, and vapor transport through evaporation and condensation.
The kinetic BAC-model, based on fundamental mechanisms, including surface diffusion, liquid-film mass transfer, Monod kinetics, growth of biofilm and suspended cells as well as shear loss of biofilm, was developed to describe the performance of biofilm attached on activated carbon in the azo-dye treatment process.
It can be degraded by various mechanisms, including surface erosion, enzymatic degradation through chitosanase and lysozyme, and dissolution.
Plasticity of neurotransmission in physiological and pathophysiological states depend on LGIC trafficking that is modulated by a number of different mechanisms including surface targeting, mobility, and endocytosis.
Proposed interaction mechanisms include surface charge attraction and competitive adsorption.
The sintering mechanisms include surface diffusion, grain boundary migration, vacancy creation, and annihilation.
Thus, assessing the mechanical properties of water treatment membranes is critical not only to their design, but also for studying their failure mechanisms, including the surface damage, mechanical and chemical ageing, delamination and loss of dimensional stability of the membranes.
However, implant failure can occur through a variety of mechanisms including bearing surface and backside wear, polyethylene fracture and particulate-generated osteolysis.
The high P fertilizer value in the best substrate is suggested to be a function of several different mechanisms including structural surface changes and improvements in the association of P to especially magnesium, calcium and aluminum.
