Overall, the results indicate that the generalized plane strain model with or without rotation of the rigid bounding planes provides the most accurate description of the 3-D stress state, especially at the corner interface within the elastic region.
Additionally, it was found that the rigid bounding of fluid at the ends of the shell decreases the natural frequencies for the lower circumferential modes when compared with the sloshing fluid case.
Both liquid layers are assumed to be perfectly immiscible and the lower rigid bounding surface contains locally defined steep-sided topographical features – either a step-up/-down or a trench/peak.
Obviously, a more rigid bound peptide would imply a stronger constraint to the longitudinal and transversal fluctuations of the bound lipids in a peptide-bound leaflet, leading a more significant stress concentration to occur at the edge of the peptide-bound leaflet, and further making the peptide-bound leaflet be torn more easily away from the cellular membrane.
Vague quantifiers, rather than setting rigid quantitative bounds, seem instead to convey probabilistic information, as if a somewhat unreliable measuring instrument had been applied in formulating the quantified claim, and the recipient of the information needs to take this unreliability into account in updating beliefs.
Oxygen appears as a weakly bound, mono-atomic layer, while copper forms a rigid, strongly bound bulk layer.
Among other things, it provides enough headroom for a lord wearing a coronet to enter without bowing his head--an important point in England's rigid, class-bound society.
There is little doubt that the match fixers' sophisticated inter-continental operations have put them a long way ahead of the rigid rule-bound tactics of those trying to stop them.
Hugo Black, meanwhile, a priggish young man who even at nine was "as rigid and duty-bound as if he were 45", ends up going to the Russian front, eventually fighting under the (real) British general, Edmund Ironside.
How can peptides overcome the entropic cost involved in switching from an unstructured, flexible peptide to a rigid, well-defined bound structure?
