The brutal assault on the young student with an iron rod caused an international outrcry and led to nationwide protests demanding justice for the victim.
Any expansion or contraction of the rod caused by changes of temperature will affect the timekeeping of a pendulum; e.g., a pendulum clock with a steel rod will lose one second a day for a rise in temperature of approximately 4 °F (2.2 °C).
The new offshore platform heavy oil recovery technology replaces electronic submersible pump with rod pump, forming an annular space between tubing and sucker rod, causing technological difficulty for reliable downhole sealing and platform evacuation.
The deflection of the sensor's rod caused by external mechanical stimuli may be unambiguously identified by the distortion of the magnetic field, which occurs due to the motion of the attached body in the ferrofluid.
Based on the changes in morphology of GFRP rod surface and development trend of current, the degradation process of GFRP rod caused by electrical stress under wet condition was divided into four consecutive stages, namely degradation inception stage, hydrolysis stage, carbonization stage and breakdown stage.
The jagged break of Davies's femur, now held together with metal rods, caused excruciating pain.
Operators tried to reinsert rods to slow and control the nuclear reaction, but a design flaw in the control rods caused them to jam.
In a bad enough case, that will break the cladding covering the radioactive fuel rods, causing them to release radioactivity, with potentially disastrous consequences.
Yet when a heedless experiment with fuel rods caused the No. 4 reactor at Chernobyl to blow, there was no public echo.
A voltage applied between the electrodes induced a type of electrical attraction between the gold pads and the metal rods, causing the rods to bridge adjacent gold squares.
As shown in Figure2, a change in the refractive index of waveguide's rods causes a change in the dispersion curve.
