Improving alignments

Equation 116 was also derived in Sect. 2. It shows that the fibre strength according to the shear failure criterion increases with improved alignment of the chains, and that it is proportional to the shear modulus g. 

It is permissible to size pipe ends of the same nominal size to improve alignment if wall thickness requirements are maintained.

In all probability a slight buckling of the hexyl chain actually occurs in the upper situation, better filling the cavity and bringing the ammonium ions into improved alignment with the carbonyl dipoles of the receptor, from [8] with permission...
