Held captive

Figure 56.1 shows the cross-section of a typical end-suction centrifugal pump where the fluid to be pumped enters the suction inlet at the eye of the impeller. Due to the relatively high speed of rotation, the fluid collected within the impeller vanes is held captive because of the close tolerance between the front face of the impeller and the pump housing. 

In an atomic gas, electrons are held captive by atomic nnclei. In a plasma, they are free to move around. This freedom of the now-antonomous electrons makes the plasma a good electrical condnctor. The plasma contains a nuxtnre of free electrons and positive ions.

Animals held captive in zoos are likely to be depressed if they are restrained from moving to conditions more to their liking. How can you overcome this depression ... 

The responses of 24 captive P. cinereus, previously tested 4 to 5 times with TSpc and held captive for 5 months from June 18 to November 9, 1999, were compared to the responses of 24 fresh salamanders captured on November 1, 1999 and tested for the first time on Nov 9, 1999. Both groups avoided the same TSpc rinse ( captive , = 4.17, P < 0.05 fresh , x = 8.17, P < 0.01), and there was no significant difference between the responses of the captive and fresh animals ( = 0.11, E > 0.70) (Figure 1). There was also no difference in the activity levels of the two groups (captive mean SD = 3.17 2.35 fresh mean = 3.25 2.40 t = 0.121, P > 0.80, df = 46). We therefore conducted trials on salamanders captured in late October and early November through the winter, expecting continued avoidance of TSpc-... 

Small glass spheres (microspheres), carbon nanotubes, and fullerenes can hold hydrogen if it is induced at high pressure and temperature. The hydrogen is held captive in the solid matrix when the temperature lowers. Hydrogen can be released by heating the solid. 

To obtain some idea regarding the changes in availability, one should compare the specific consumption by the rubber industry versus the overall consumption in nonrubber applications. This will give the reader some idea of the cross-elasticity of demand between rubber and nonrubber sectors for a given intermediate and its vulnerability to changes in availability and price. It should also be noted that many of these intermediate feedstocks are held captive by the chemical manufacturer, to be used exclusively to synthesize other chemical products. However, sometimes these manufacturers sell these feedstocks to distributors. In other cases, these feedstocks are sold directly to other chemical manufacturers. These other manufacturers might even have a pipeline directly from the nearby supplier.

During the period 1937-1945, the Japanese military conducted experiments with F. tularensis on humans held captive at Unit 731, near Harbin on the Asian mainland. Any Japanese use of this organism outside such experiments is unknown.
