Police force strength was characterised as the annual number of officers per 100 000 population.
Zeidan's speech puts the prime minister, a former human rights lawyer once exiled in Switzerland, on a collision course with powerful militia formations based in Tripoli, in a trial of strength he characterised as a battle for democracy.
It is similar to the previously defined coupling strength criterion characterising the ensemble average energy flow in uni-dimensional waveguides.
Arsenal surged towards their third league and FA Cup double, and their second under Arsène Wenger, here last night with a rugged demonstration of the mental strength which has characterised so many of their performances this season.
The paper illustrates that shear strength can be characterised conservatively by performing constant water content tests with no facilities to control/monitor suction and that water retention behaviour can be predicted successfully by performing a single water retention measurement.
After 16.5 Myr of convergence, deformation is accommodated along the subduction interface by a low-strength shear zone characterised by a weak (10 25% of serpentinite) and relatively narrow (5 10 km) serpentinized front in the reference experiment.
Recent monitoring (urine screening) has determined that active consumption of nicotine and nicotine-containing substances in-competition occurs in approximately 25 50% of athletes in sports that are characterised by strength, power and anaerobic capacity (cf. endurance), e.g. American football, ice hockey, wrestling, bobsleigh, gymnastics, rugby and skiing.
Mechanical stimuli have historically been recognised as vital to bone repair and maintenance, dating back to Julius Wolff's 1888 law which characterised bone strength as proportional to the physical loads placed upon the structure.
Experimental parameters like topography, current densities, field strengths and hydrodynamics are characterised in double logarithmic plots.
