Thousands of spectators, who began lining up shortly after 3 p.m., were met by more police officers than usual and more rigid crowd-control measures.
Although statistical-thermodynamic models offer quantitative estimation of the effect of crowding on protein stability, descriptions of the potential of mean force acting between a rigid crowding particle and a flexible non-native protein conformation remain highly approximate, and the estimates of the magnitude of crowding effects on conformational equilibria vary widely [15], [21].
Right now the well-heeled business traveler gets the short end of the stick: He pays many times the fare leisure travelers pay, but puts up with the same rigid schedules, crowded airports and deteriorating service.
He's certainly serving a need, because the well-heeled business traveler gets the short end of the stick when flying with airlines: He pays many times the fare leisure travelers pay, but puts up with the same rigid schedules, crowded airports and deteriorating service.
I know that sounds crazy in the 60s, but I was raised by my mother and grandmother, who really came out of that era, and talk about a rigid role-playing crowd!
At the beginning, Anthony Ward's design is crowded with rigid, saluting soldiers.
The polymer physical properties that arise from these semi-rigid and sterically crowded copolymers involve unique solution and solid-state properties.
This theory has first been introduced in a microscopic setting (each individual in the crowd being a rigid sphere), but we will not develop this aspect here (the interested reader can refer to the papers by Maury and Venel [69, 70]).
With no observed Tg below 250 °C, evidence of hindered rotation and limited movement of the polymer backbone pointed to a more rigid polymer backbone with a sterically crowded configuration.
In stark contrast with the crowd's liveliness are the rigid faces of the professional gamers themselves.
