Within this volume fraction we identify for each segment of direction l a segment of orientation l′ of equal length s and replace the two segments by their vector sum (in the previously considered case of opposite segment directions, this sum is zero).
Hence, the process is - unlike cross slip - isotropic in the sense that an initially isotropic orientation distribution will remain so, and recombination can occur between segments of any orientation provided they find themselves within a distance of less than ycb.
If dislocation segments of opposite orientation which belong to different dislocation loops closely approach each other, they may annihilate.
Each tree consisted of various vessel segments of different orientation and diameter.
Figure 5B (upper panel) shows that the initial approximately 4 s of tethered attachment had two segments of LCh orientation (i and iii) with an intermediate RCh segment (ii).
Therefore, with line segments of both orientations detected, the next step is to find such intercepting pairs among all previously identified line segments.
The result is a group of preliminary interceptions each of which is represented by two line segments of different orientations and their involving end points.
We first examined the effects of adapting to line segments of different orientations, both on the aftereffect magnitude in subsequently viewed probe stimuli, as well as on the perceptual drift experienced during the adaptation period itself.
From the present line-integral representations, exact closed-form solutions in terms of elementary functions are further obtained in a unified way for the displacement and stress fields due to a straight dislocation segment of arbitrary orientation.
It is reasonable to expect longer projections across the cortical surface to arise from these regions, under an assumption of like-to-like connectivity: areas of the visual field with low spatial frequency, and regions of similar color, are likely to persist over wider stretches of the visual field than small line segments of a particular orientation.
Thus, investigation of the effects of segment orientation on segmental load estimation in this study is exploratory.
