There are scenes that display De Palma's customary visual brilliance: two bodies fall down a stairwell in agonizing slow motion; the sloping old black cars slide along lurid streets like giant shiny beetles.
For long distance travel, motion down the slope may be facilitated by undrained loading (Hutchinson and Bhandari 1971; Wang et al. 2000, 2002).
Though it seems like a long time ago for those who didn't live through that historical moment, Nixon's utter disregard for the very rules and laws this country upholds set in motion the slippery slope that shaped the Bush regime's equally callous disregard for our rights and values.
When an animal rotates with constant angular velocity through the environment, the spatiotemporal response profile of the photoreceptor array encodes the velocity of self-motion through the slope of oriented streaks in space-time (front face, Appendix figure 1B) (Adelson and Bergen, 1985).
The results indicate a slight temperature-dependent change in the dynamic quenching rate, from which we calculated the activation energy for the hinge bending motion by assuming the slope of the line resulting from an Arrhenius plot of the data was equal to the activation energy divided by the gas constant, − Ea/ R.
In this detection scheme, the cavity resonance shift due to the mechanical resonator's motion is transduced by the slope of the optical lineshape into AC transmission fluctuations in the fiber, occurring at the mechanical resonance frequency.
This section presents the model of the wheel spider rolling on the slope for motion analysis.
From 0 to 30 degrees in the abduction arc of motion for the operated shoulders, the slope was negative.
In the straw flow pen, the straw, mixed with dung, travelled down the slope by pig motion and went out of the pen to a scraped passage.
This expression for motion is identical to that obtained for the slope of the tangent to the parabola f(t) = y = gt2/2 at the point t.
