A-locus

A positive value iadicates vertical movement. Thea, moving from the outer wall to the air core, the axial velocity iacreases to positive values. Thus, the fluid motioa is dowa the wall of the cycloae to the apex and up the air core through the vortex finder. In the cylindrical section, the axial velocity goes negative again, approaching the vortex-finder wall. The fluid flow is then down the inner cyclone wall and the outer vortex-finder wall. There is a locus of zero axial velocity. 

For a given value of lu, equation (6.9) represents a point in complex space P(lu). When LU is varied from zero to infinity, a locus will be generated in the complex space. This locus, shown in Figure 6.2, is in effect a polar plot, and is sometimes called a harmonic response diagram. An important feature of such a diagram is that its shape is uniquely related to the dynamic characteristics of the system. 

Breakaway points The points at which a locus breaks away from the real axis can be found by obtaining the roots of the equation... 

In direct space successive layers are sheared homogeneously along cylindrical surfaces, one relative to the adjacent one, as a consequence of the circumference increase for successive layers. In diffraction space the locus of the corresponding reciprocal lattice node is generated by a point on a straight line which is rolling without sliding on a circle in a plane perpendicular to the tube axis. Such a locus... 

Allele variant forms oftheDNA sequence at a specified locus. For example, alleles at a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) are characterized by the nucleotide that is changing. The combination of two alleles at a locus constitutes a genotype. 

Since the phase of the flashes is arbitrary, the above statement holds for any radius and one can say that the limit cycle is a locus of fixed points for stroboscopic points approaching them from all directions both from inside and from outside. One can specify this condition by writing ... 

Fig. 8 The Haug triangle. The three extremes of conformation compact sphere, random coil and rigid rod) are placed at the apices of a triangle. The conformation of a given macromolecule is represented by a locus along the sides of the triangle between these extremes. Knowledge of the power law exponents (see text) can help to give us an idea of the conformation type. From [61]...

While it is probably rarer than recessively inherited disease, families with autosomal dominant LGD have been described, and in these families the disease is usually relatively mild. In one large family with dominant disease and the unusual additional feature of dysarthria, a locus has been identified on chromosome 5. The genes responsible for this condition in other families have not yet been localized.

After only a small percentage of the monomer has been converted to polymer (in the presence of emulsifier), the initially low surface tension of the aqueous emulsion rises rather abruptly, indicating a decrease in the soap concentration in the aqueous phase of the emulsion. The soap concentration is then too low to maintain micelles, which may therefore be abandoned as a locus for further polymerization beyond this point. As additional evidence of the depletion of soap in the aqueous phase, monomer droplets are no longer stable, and upon discontinuing agitation a supernatant monomer layer is readily formed.

A locus (closed-loop root path) starts at an open-loop pole and either terminates at an open-loop zero or extends to infinity. 

Figure 4.1 Effect of an iontophoretic injection of bicuculline, a GABAa antagonist, on a locus coeruleus noradrenergic neuron. With reduced activity during slow wave sleep, this neuron then becomes silent during paradoxical sleep (PS). The application of bicuculline reversibly restores tonic discharge, indicating the role of GABA in the cessation of activity of this neuron during PS.

However, in order to avoid the epoxide moiety in 4-67, which might serve as a locus of nondiscrimimating cell toxicity, these authors focused their activity on the cyclopropane-analogue 4-70 by heating a mixture of 4-68 and 4-69, which led to 4-70 with extrusion of isobutene in 75% yield (Scheme 4.15). 

We shall now consider formula (51a). The dependences of ev on ea at = const based on (51a) are shown schematically in Fig. 7. This figure presents a family of equiphotoadsorption curves. Each of these curves is a locus of points for which 4> remains constant. To different values of there correspond different curves which are numbered in Fig. 7 in order of increasing ...

Genotype An unphased 5 to 3 sequence of nucleotide pair(s) found at one or more polymorphic sites in a locus on a pair of homologous chromosomes in an individual. 

Polymorphic site A position within a locus at which at least two alternative sequences (alleles) are found in a population. 

Fig. 3.16. Curve-of-growth shifts (corrected by a factor (1 + ax) for Rayleigh scattering opacity) for singly ionized metals in the giant HD 122563 ([Fe/H] = -2.6), against excitation potential. The line joining plotted points for Ti n, Fe n and Cr n defines a locus from which one can judge the presence or absence of additional deficiencies in the heavier elements.

For exothermic, reversible reactions, the existence of a locus of maximum rates, as shown in Section 5.3.4, and illustrated in Figures 5.2(a) and 18.3, introduces the opportunity to optimize (minimize) the reactor volume or mean residence time for a specified throughput and fractional conversion of reactant. This is done by choice of an appropriate T (for a CSTR) or T profile (for a PFR) so that the rate is a maximum at each point. The mode of operation (e.g., adiabatic operation for a PFR) may not allow a faithful interpretation of this requirement. For illustration, we consider the optimization of both a CSTR and a PFR for the model reaction...
