Flat-shares

Hydraulically driven flat-shares, which cut down vegetation just helow the soil surface and shred it with an additional rotor. The ground can get churned up if the soil is wet. If it stays wet after use of the equipment the unwanted plants may start to grow again. The effect is unsatisfactory if the fruit trees are planted too close together.

Styrene—butadiene elastomers, emulsion and solution types combined, are reported to be the largest-volume synthetic mbber, with 28.7% of the world consumption of all synthetic mbber in 1994 (38). This percentage has decreased steadily since 1973 when SBR s market share was 57% (39). The decline has been attributed to the switch to radial tires (longer milage) and the growth of other synthetic polymers, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, and polystyrene. Since 1985, production of SBR has been flat (Table 3). 

Although sp3 hybridization is the most common electronic state of carbon, it s not the only possibility. Look at ethylene, C2H4, for example. It was recognized more than 100 years ago that ethylene carbons can be tetravalent only if they share four electrons and are linked by a double bond. Furthermore, ethylene is planar (flat) and has bond angles of approximately 120° rather than 109.5°. 

There is evidently a flat potential energy surface for these clusters as different skeletal isomers can actually be isolated in the solid state for Au9[P(C6H40Me)3]8(N03)3 a brown form has a D4d crown structure and a green form has a D2h structure. In solution, however, they share a common structure with identical31P NMR spectra either the solution cluster has a regular arrangement of phosphines, or it is fluxional [186].

Although the ROA spectra of typical /1-sheet proteins share some of the features observed in /3-sheet poly-L-lysine, there are also some differences, especially in the amide I region. This is because the /1-sheet in proteins tends to be twisted and irregular, whereas that in polypeptides tends to be extended, multistranded and relatively flat. 

Blue and UV light from stellar populations is dominated by young, massive stars which also contribute the lion s share of the Z-elements ( metals ). Evolutionary synthesis computations show that, between the Lyman limit (912 A) and 2000 A or so, the spectrum expressed as Lv is more or less flat (Fig. 12.3). This leads to some rather simple considerations because Iv retains its value (and flatness) when the light is redshifted (see Eq. 12.1), because the degradation in energy is simply taken up by the factor dv on integration (Lilly Cowie 1987). 

Summarizing, many potent AhR ligands share a highly hydrophobic, aromatic (and thus flat) structure. It will be interesting to compare the above-mentioned theoretical results with data from X-ray crystallography when they will become available in the future. 

The biggest growth area in LC based displays has been in full-colour flat panel displays for use in conjunction with computers, especially portable machines. The two major technologies used in this area, as stated above, are STN-LCDs and AMTFT-LCDs, with the latter, as their prodnction costs diminished, taking the major share of the market. This is becanse they exhibit a more uniform, wide viewing angle and superior display brighmess. ... 

Figure 7.5 Intercalation of carcinogens into the stacked bases of nucleic acids. Both carcinogens and certain anti-neoplastic agents share a common mechanism of action. They have the capacity to insert themselves into the nucleic acid structure, causing geometrical distortions that preclnde the ability of the nucleic acid to complete its function in the processes of transcription and translation. Flat aromatic molecules have the ability to intercalate between the stacked bases.

The psychosis that least resembles dreaming is that of schizophrenia, because, like mania, it has the paranoia and accusatory auditory hallucinations (which dreaming lacks), and the emotional tone is often flat (about as far away from dream elation as we can get). Anxiety is about the only shared property, and that is not very specific. Perhaps it should come as no surprise that the typical schizophrenic psychosis is so different from that of dreaming. After all, it is the neuromodulator dopamine that has been most strongly implicated in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia, and that is the only neuromodulator that has not been implicated in dreaming. We will discuss this interesting difference in more detail when we consider how antipsychotic medication may work. 

At sufficiently low temperature, the breaking of CH bonds is likely to be inhibited, leading to nondissociatively adsorbed (CH2CH2) species in the form of di-rr (type I spectra), (na) (type I spectra) (113), or n species (type II spectra) (17). For the relatively close-packed flat surfaces [(111) or (100) of fee metals (0001) of hep metals], this is normally found to be the case experimentally. The exceptions are Ni(100) at 150 K. (199) [where it seems probable that an ethyne species shares the surface with the di-a one (Section VI.B.3.a)] and for Ir( 111) (221, 222) (where ethylidyne has already formed at 180K, possibly in conjunction with CCH ). These two surfaces merit further study at lower temperatures. 

Clay minerals are formed by two building blocks [93] tetrahedrons of oxygen with Si4+ ions in their centers or octahedrons of oxygen with Al3+ or Mg2+ in their centers. The tetrahedrons share oxygens and form hexagonal rings. Some oxygen atoms form hydroxyls, in particular when the clay is filled with Ca2+. This pattern can be repeated ad infinitum to form flat tetrahedral sheets. Similarly, the octahedrons are linked to form octahedral layers. The tetrahedral and octahedral sheets can be stacked on top of each other in various forms to build the different kinds of clays.
