The MEAN ultimate force-to-fracture of the non-osteotomized femurs, used as controls, ranged from 158 N to 164 N in the three groups (Table 2).
During the static loading to failure test, the average ultimate force of the Activmotion prior to fracture of the lateral cortical hinge was 8.2 kN, a value which is higher compared to the average values from our previous studies, namely 5.5 kN, 5.3 kN, 4.4 kN, 3.6 kN and 3.4 kN for the iBalance, the TomoFix std., the PEEKPower, the Contour Lock and the TomoFix sm group respectively.
Because of the dependency of absolute measured values on device geometry, comparison of the ratios of ultimate resistive force to the corresponding minimal plateaus may better describe the potential of this strategy.
When criticised, Mr Kabila's henchmen resort to the ultimate force of dissuasion.
When bisphosphonate was given systemically in addition to the locally-applied BMP (group C), the ultimate force doubled compared to that for the control femurs (Table 2) (p < 0.001).
In case of the second premolar, its large crown and multi-root anatomical structure contributed to significantly higher values of tooth weight, volume (both in enamel and dentine) and ultimate force when compared to these parameters in incisors and canine.
If the ultimate forces leading to genome shrinkage in endosymbionts are still much debated, the proximal mechanisms responsible for DNA removal seem to be better understood [ 20, 21].
The ultimate force behind this migration is intractable rural poverty in West Africa.
He is 6ft 4in and certainly brought a new dynamic into rugby, in the same way as Jonah Lomu, who was the ultimate force of nature.
Based on a force-displacement curve, the ultimate force for each of the bones was determined and the stiffness and energy absorbed were calculated.
It's evident that in the same way Ross Kemp began to believe he was actually Staff Sergeant Henry Hennoo" Garvie from Ultimate Force, Mitchell has begun to believe that he actually is Mark Corrigan from Peep Show.
