Embedded in the floor of the entrance hall is a roughly seven-foot steel shaft, shaped like a javelin and tapering to a sharp point at both ends; it's a sculpture by the Portuguese artist Leonor Antunes, who carried it to an upper floor and dropped it through a hole cut for that purpose.
The structure consists of four symmetric-shaft-shape photonic crystal (SSPhC) cavities side-coupled to a W1 photonic crystal (PhC) waveguide.
We design symmetric-shaft-shape photonic crystal sensor arrays (SSPhCSAs) which can be used in refractive index sensing, and the performance of the structure is investigated.
The spear fore-shafts, shaped from antelope horns and decorated with abstract etchings, were in close contact with stone points that were beveled on both sides.
[35, 38] In this study, simulations of M. lankesteri burrows were made using U-shaped burrows, single shaft (L-shaped, inclined L-shaped, 45° inclined, vertical/45° inclined), or mixtures of U-shaped and single shaft burrows.
The shaft was shaped to let in the morning and evening sun but throw shade over the seedling at midday.
Fortunately, a "shaft-like" shape is available for extracting the line features from target ISAR images.
Rib shaft 'v' shaped in proximal cross-sectional profile.
The metacarpal length was preserved in all cases with the metacarpal shaft accommodating the shape of the implant.
Metacarpal length was preserved in all thumbs and the metacarpal shaft accommodated the shape of the implant well.
All clear protrusions emanating laterally from the dendritic shaft, irrespective of shape, were counted in the DsRed images and the spine density was measured manually using custom MATLAB software [ 18] by an observer who was blinded to genotype.
