This model is applicable to a system with small rigidities.
Deeper sources like the downdip afterslip yield smaller volume change due to larger rigidity and bulk modulus at the mantle depth, while shallower coseismic slip associated with smaller rigidity and bulk modulus at the crustal depth yields larger volume change.
Longitudinal free oscillations of a beam with small axial rigidity, continuously restrained by imperfect elastic springs, are analyzed.
Under the usual assumptions of small bending rigidity, the vibration of a pre-stressed thin rectangular plate which is under the influence of shearing deformations is analyzed.
Meanwhile, giant buckyballs, such as C720, have smaller system rigidity as well as non-recoverable morphology upon impact, and thus they are expected to have higher capabilities for energy dissipation[28].
F120 fibrils possess a smaller bending rigidity κ (Table 3 in the Supporting Information) and a larger normalized bending fluctuation Δ u than F140 fibrils.
Arches are widely used in structural engineering for their high bearing capacity, large rigidity, small deformation, good economic gains, etc.
Metal stiffeners were welded to each panel's interior face to provide a small degree of rigidity.
The former concern results from the relatively small size and rigidity of siRNA, which is ∼200 times smaller than most plasmids used for DNA delivery and is stiffer than DNA.
Many of the mutant lines demonstrated small alterations in rigidity of the infected erythrocyte suggesting a large number of proteins potentially have a minor effect on this host cell property.
