The staff ace, Tim Hudson, will pitch in Game 3, and the unflappable rookie left-hander Barry Zito would start in Game 4. Oakland's bullpen is thin but potentially effective -- the ex-Yankee right-hander Jim Mecir could play a major role in this series because his screwball makes him effective against left-handed batters like David Justice, Bernie Williams and Paul O'Neill.
Nowadays, there is a strong demand on the search of thinner, but more effective organic coatings for corrosion protection of metallic substrates, like galvanised steel, used in the automotive industry.
This cheap but effective keyboard is thin and light, but with nice responsive keys and reliable Bluetooth connectivity.
Steroid-based topical medications, applied in very thin layers, are effective in most cases.
These results indicate that the ONO and NON tunnel barriers can provide a thin effective tunneling thickness for the fast P/E speeds and comparatively thick physical thickness for the long charge retention characteristic.
For thin cracks, the effective elastic constants are formulated as a function of the crack density parameter (O'Connell and Budiansky 1974).
Even high-energy gammas deposit only a little energy in the thin detector allowing effective background discrimination through the pulse-height analysis.
The lattice shell is composed of a large number of helical and hoop ribs and modelled as a continuous orthotropic thin cylinder with effective stiffness parameters.
Herein, a glucose-assisted self-assembly solvothermal protocol is reported to prepare electron-rich TiO2 thin films as effective electron transport layers exhibiting enhanced electron mobility.
In summary, also these results confirm that, at least for an optically thin medium, more effective optical noise rejection is achieved both in clean and turbid waters by using a cross-polarized (VH) rather than a copolarized (VV) detection scheme.
