disagreeable), "deprive of" (disinfect), or "exclude or expel from" (disbar). The original meaning can still be seen in a word likedissipate, which means "to break up and scatter.”
where PX/Y means the probability that a chain ending in Y* will add an X monomer or in other words the probability of occurrence of a YX dyad provided that the event Y* has occurred. Two independent parameters need to be considered to describe the process of copolymerization. These transiti...
A polyrepo architecture means using multiple repositories, rather than one repository. For example, a polyrepo can use a repo for a web app project, a repo for a mobile app project, and a repo for a server app project. Polyrepo is also known as many-repo or multi-repo. ...
PHIG[yellow] means the sample before white-light irradiation, PHI[blue] means the sample after the irradiation for 30 min. Photos in the figure represent PHIG[yellow] and PHIG[blue]. Full size image Role of the electron donor in photochromism of PHI Previous studies on the photochromism of...
Data are represented as the means ± DS of at least three experiments. Statistical analyses were performed using GraphPad Prism8 software (GraphPad Software, Inc.) and Microsoft Office Excel 2016. Statistical significance is calculated using Students’s two tailed unpaired t test. The log-rank...
The most common category of hardness is indicated by Shore A. This scale generally ranges from Shore A30 to Shore A90, measured by using atype-A Durometer. Another way to quantify hardness is by using the Asker C scale. With both indications, the larger value means a harder material. Gener...
This is used as the basis of chewing gum, of course without cross-linking, and can be used as a means of delivering therapeutic agents to the mouth, although this is only by formulation as a simple mixture so that release is gradual as the mixture is masticated with saliva. This gum, ...
Table 1 Means, standard deviations, and correlations Full size table Confirmatory factor analysis We conducted confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with Mplus 7.4 to estimate the convergent validity of the measurement model and assess the distinctiveness of our key variables (i.e., sexual harassment,...
(step) in the random walk is rejected, if a maximum force on the placed bead is exceeded. The self-excluding random walk is by default performed along a breadth-first traversal of the molecular graph. This means nodes (i.e., residues) that are close to each other are placed first and...
The simulation results of jet forming show that the PTFE/Cu jet head has obvious radial expansion effect, but the increase of density means the increase of Cu content, so the jet formed by PTFE/Cu liner can more and more reflect the characteristics of copper jet, and the radial expansion ...
