The low-pressure, custom sequences (mechanical index [MI]< or =0.65) had minimal blood cell extravasation as determined by histologic evaluation.
Each musician was featured at length as a soloist during a beguiling four-movement sequence of mechanical clatter, luminous drones, relaxed jazz-rock grooves and chaotic beats reminiscent of Captain Beefheart's highly regimented art-rock chaos.
Fluvial comminution in a high energy, mixed sediment environment can reduce sand-sized particles to dust by a sequence of mechanical processes10, but the relatively short lifetime of fluvial features on Mars (e.g. ref.14), also suggest that this mode of dust formation likely did not contribute significantly to the present day dust reservoir of Mars.
A complex sequence of mechanical operations was scheduled to follow--separation from a cruise ring that had supported the spacecraft, a fiery entry behind its heat shield, parachute deployment, jettisoning of the heat shield, radar locking onto the surface, separation from the parachute, and a rocket-powered deceleration to a gentle touchdown on the surface.
Within five months, 5000 rats had been bred for the sequence; 1000 mechanical rats stood in for those that were set on fire.
These manmade silks have, thus far, fallen short of native dragline silk in both sequence and mechanical properties [e.g. 30], [33] [35].
In the first description of the molecular sequence and mechanical properties of aciniform prey wrapping silks, Hayashi et al. [34] found that it exhibited toughness of about 370 J/cm3, far greater than any known silk, until now.
We evaluated thresholds of hindpaw withdrawal using a sequence of mechanical stimuli of increasing force.
One of two envelopes containing either conventional or variable PSV was drawn to determine the sequence of mechanical ventilation modes.
At present, relatively little is known about the electrical activation sequence, underlying mechanical dyssynchrony and subsequent potential benefits of CRT in this cohort.
