The mechanical properties such as Young's modulus of elasticity, Poisson's ratio, shear modulus of elasticity, material density, etc. vary smoothly and continuously in preferred directions in FGMs because of continuous changes in the composition, microstructure, porosity, etc.
When the net pressure is distributed smoothly and continuously along the fracture, it can be defined by a continuous function p y) = p w f y).
For water, Deff increases smoothly and continuously with concentration.
The material properties of functionally graded materials (FGM) shell are assumed to vary smoothly and continuously across the thickness.
I was suspicious of how smoothly a continuously variable transmission, which eliminates the conventional stepped gears, would mate to an S.U.V.
SPPs are helicoidal transmission optical devices, similar to spiral staircases, that imprint vorticity onto the phase distribution of the incident light beam, changing it smoothly and continuously, while preserving the direction of the optical axis.
With ketoprofen (KET) as the model drug, polyvinylpyrrolidone and zein as the sheath polymer and core matrix, respectively, the coaxial process could be carried out smoothly and continuously without any clogging of the spinneret.
Using ketoprofen (KET) as the model drug, polyvinylpyrrolidone as the sheath polymer, and ethyl cellulose as the core matrix, the coaxial process could be conducted smoothly and continuously without spinneret clogging.
The mechanical properties of the graded shell are assumed to vary smoothly and continuously with the change of volume concentrations of the constituting materials (ZrO2 and Al) across the thickness of the shell according to a power-law distribution.
