We hypothesized that TFR would reproduce the biomechanical function of the natural facets when implanted in conjunction with TDR.
This study evaluated the effect of a TFR specifically designed to replace the natural facets and supplement the function with the natural disc and with TDR.
Based on the design of a simple and proper electrochemical cell using a cone-shaped pipette tip, one of the natural (1 1 1) facets of a Au single crystal bead has been directly used for electrochemical measurements.
This is certainly a rapidly evolving and exciting facet of natural products research.
This last point is an important one: Science in the Centres would have had limited success if it focused strictly on one facet of natural resource science (for example, forestry or earth science).
An important facet of natural analogs studies is commercial production activities at CO2 fields, which offer insight into the technologies, safety, and cost-effectiveness of CO2 handling, geologic storage, and monitoring at future sequestration sites.
The essential ingredient in Etruscan religion was a belief that human life was but one small meaningful element in a universe controlled by gods who manifested their nature and their will in every facet of the natural world as well as in objects created by humans.
Groundwater is a subterranean natural resource, having multidimensional facets.
Beyond these structural parallels with basic facets of natural language, it is held that the purposes and possibilities of architecture qua language yield further parallels, best explained by the notion that architecture has, or even is, a language.
However, the effectiveness of therapeutic T cells is constrained by the endogenous T cell response: certain facets of natural response programs can be toxic, whereas other responses, such as the ability to overcome tumor immunosuppression, are absent.
