The male stem taper is the weakest part of the modular junction due to its reduced cross section compared to the outside diameter of the stem.
The penetration depth feature is, in part, due to the higher charge state reducing cross sections at these energies, substantially higher cross sections that those of the lighter ion species.
The exocrine pancreas was insufficient in the KO mice as indicated by reduced pancreas elastase levels in the stool and by reduced cross-section areas of the pancreatic acini (Fig. 5B).
For example, this helped reduce the cross section of Allt na Lairige Dam in Scotland to only 60percentt of that of a conventional gravity dam of the same height.
In order to accomplish this, it is often necessary to reduce the cross section of a cast structure to one-eighth or even less of its original.
The presence of the wire reduces the scattering cross section of the impurity for orthogonal infall.
In conclusion, aiming to derive useful design suggestions, a possible extension to log-haus systems of the "Reduced Cross-Section Method" (RCSM) currently in use for the verification of fire exposed timber members is proposed.
Self-shielding arising from absorber lumping acts to reduce the effective absorption cross section of the discrete CEs, but this effect is offset by geometric and spectral effects.
The calculated and simulated results have demonstrated that this invisibility cloak may reduce the total scattering cross section of the composite structure of 90% over a broad frequency band of nearly 20 THz, and the infrared cloaking frequency can be tuned by the external temperature.
The Reduced Cross-Section Method (RCSM) provides a popular method for the design of timber members exposed to fire, using an effective cross-section and mechanical properties at normal temperature.
