Sentence examples for membrane area due from inspiring English sources

Previous design methods using the dead-end and the complete-mixing models are unsatisfactory because the dead-end model tends to underestimate the membrane area due to the use of the feed concentration in the driving force while the complete-mixing model tends to overestimate the membrane area due to the use of the more concentrated rejection concentration in the driving force.

The large membrane area requirement in PV due to the low flux may be the main limitation for PV.

(vi) We also assume that any temporary imbalance between the membrane area and the cell wall area (due to exocytosis) will be rectified by lipid flow and endocytosis and that the cell shape is dictated by the fully inflated cell wall.

(B) When a high voltage is applied on one side of the DE membrane (another side is served as electric ground), Maxwell stress will start to act on the electrodes and cause the reduction in the thickness of the DE membrane, resulting the expansion of area due to the incompressibility of DE. (C) Rest state of jet-actuator with initial displacement d1 due to the attractive force of magnets.

In fact, one should note that a small enlargement of approximately 2% in the pore diameter from the lower to the upper part of the membrane results in an approximately 4% raise of the effective deposition area, due to an increase of the membrane's porosity, in good agreement with the current increase seen during deposition.

Simply put, the changes in MEP size reflect changes in synaptic efficacy and membrane potentials of neuronal populations in the stimulated area due to excitatory or inhibitory inputs from other cortical areas (see above).

However, the small active membrane area used in such test units may cause inconsistent results due to the membranes being inhomogeneous.

If we approximate the ND surface in contact with the membrane as an irregular polygon, the change in its surface area due to rounding can be obtained numerically (see SI). Specifically, for a given number of vertices, we randomly generated 100,000 polygons and computed their surface areas as the rounding radius Rr increased.

The larger membrane area results in a greater capacitance, but Rcis and Rtrans are smaller due to the less-confined geometry of the test cell, compared with the glass micro capillary system.

This recovery was most likely due to actual lateral diffusion because we found that the characteristic time of diffusion was directly proportional to the surface of the bleached area (Fig. 3B), confirming that the fluorescence recovery was not due to the potential arrival of cytosolic CX3CL1 in the bleached membrane area.

This discrepancy is due to differences in the description of geometric features, in particular the active membrane area and the variable channel heights through the module, which impact on predicted performance and energy consumption.
