While there is considerable understanding of the effect of chemical composition on carbide fraction and size distribution, the understanding of the effect of carbide size distribution on wear resistance, for constant composition, is poor.
Since the determining factor whether carbon nanofibers or nanotubes are obtained is a strong function of catalyst size, the understanding of this growth mechanism can be transferred to the field of carbon nanotube synthesis.

The whole interview took about 30 to 60 minutes, which depended on the family size and the understanding capacity of the respondents.
Contributing to the challenge of understanding these mechanisms in both of these sensory systems is the size of the receptor families and understanding other molecular determinants of differentiation and axon targeting in main olfactory and vomeronasal sensory neurons.
Darwin was postulating the existence of an otherwise unknown species of insect based purely on the size of the flower and his understanding of the evolution and ecology or orchids and insects.
By the same token, Luis Bettencourt and Geoffrey West apply the principle of "scaling" to find correlations between urban metrics and socio-economic systems, and the size of cities, claiming that the understanding of cities' dynamics, growth and evolution in a scientifically predictable, quantitative way is crucial in city planning [6].
Given the size of the affected population, having an understanding of these forces in relation to adapting to, and living with, hepatitis C is critical for effective health policy planning.
