Sentence examples for more tortuous path from inspiring English sources
Generally speaking, a wider distribution of turning angles indicate a more tortuous path comprising many turns, whereas a narrower distribution usually corresponds to more directed movement.
The presence of silicate layers may be expected to decrease the water uptake due to a more tortuous path for the diffusing molecules that must bypass impenetrable platelets.
The permeability to water vapor and oxygen of the nanocomposites containing TrGO significantly decreased with increasing filler load due to a more tortuous path to gas permeation.
Inspection of the failure modes revealed that the existence of colloidal silica promotes crack propagation along a more tortuous path within the interphase that results in progressive failure and contributes to increased energy dissipation.
The D0 parameters were also compared to those of the unfilled PCL; in this case, both the exfoliated and the intercalated samples showed lower values, due to a more tortuous path for the penetrant molecules.
This investigation also allowed to evidence that in real parts the role of fibre shortening due to reprocessing is more pronounced because of the more complex shape of the mould cavity, causing a higher degree of fibre breakage during injection moulding, due to the longer and more tortuous path followed by the melt polymer filling the mould cavity.
These analyses revealed an average meandering index of >0.76 (Fig. 1D), indicating that neutrophil paths in interstitial tissue are remarkably straight, compared with the more tortuous paths of lymphocytes [14] and neutrophils within lymph nodes [12].
The J-15 has followed an even more tortuous route.
Larger aggregate size tends to increase K m due to the creation of a more tortuous crack path.
On the other hand, the decrease in the variogram range produces less connected regions and consequently creates more tortuous flow path.
Conventional composite theory failed to explain such observation because filler particles are generally considered to create more tortuous diffusion path in the polymer for penetrants, and should thereby lead to a systematic reduction in gas permeability.
