Its sustained pulling power is all the more remarkable given the vast expansion the company has undergone in the past two decades.
The results from two experiments indicated that the cottontop tamarins (1) had a much higher success rate and efficiency of pulling than many of the other species previously studied, (2) adjusted pulling behaviour to the presence or absence of a partner, and (3) spontaneously developed sustained pulling techniques to solve the task.
This would be consistent with the model of Kozlowski et al. [15], who postulated that the softer posterior cortex prevents detachment of cortical force generators and allows for more sustained pulling forces.
Further experiments then revealed that ventral stress fibers are maintained and can even become thicker under a sustained pulling force.
Jeremy Wariner sustained a pulled hamstring and can't run and LaShawn Merritt pulled up in the 400 meters and he's unavailable.
Except for Tab Ramos, who sustained a pulled groin muscle today and left practice early, all the MetroStars finished practice on a high note.
Almost equal doses of silliness punctuate the earnestness (even the numerous stiffly clinical black-and-white photo illustrations turn out to be mostly visual gags) until Dear Reader is plunged into delicious confusion about whether this is a serious dissertation on a recondite subject, or one elaborate sustained leg-pull, or both.
Liddell sustained a pulled muscle, which severely impaired his movement on the pitch and forced him out of two domestic matches.
While Sampras nursed a muscle pull sustained at the Australian Open, Agassi carried the United States in Zimbabwe, exhausting and dehydrating himself in the high elevation of Harare.
Marian Gaborik, whom Tortorella singled out for criticism after Saturday's game and before Sunday's for not being at 100 percent because of a groin-muscle pull sustained while skating for Slovakia at the Olympics, tried nine shots against Buffalo, more than any other player.
The guitar originally had four courses of strings, three double, the top course single, that ran from a violin-like pegbox to a tension bridge glued to the soundboard, or belly; the bridge thus sustained the direct pull of the strings.
