Nonharmonicity

Where nonharmonized national MRLs exist, there is always a possibility of trade disputes. Until 1997, MRLs were established on raw commodities only. Directive 97/41/EC changed three important aspects of the work ... 

K for myoglobin (Parak et al., 1981). Thus, measurements of (x ) at temperatures below this value should show a much less steep temperature dependence than measurements above, if nonharmonic or collective motions (whose mean-square displacement is denoted (x )c) are a significant component of the total (x ). Figure 21 illustrates the expected behavior of (x )v, x, and their sum for a simple model system in which a small number of substates are separated by relatively large barriers. In practice, the relative contributions of simple harmonic vibrations and coUective modes will vary from residue to residue within a given protein. 

In a sense made precise by the above proposition we may therefore attribute rationality as used in orthodox economic theory to a character which is both harmonic and sensible. Thus, provided the analysis made is correct, rationality cannot be considered as a universal feature in individual decision-taking rather it is linked with a peculiar kind of character. Because other characters, in particular nonharmonic ones, seem quite often to occur in reality, the road is open to go beyond the orthodox principle of rationality. We do not want to take up this issue here systematically, but we shall offer some more informal considerations. 

For nonharmonized or local requirements, if the three pharmacopeias agree that the attribute should be included, but have not come to agreement on the method or limit state attribute under nonharmonized attributes. If only one pharmacopeia will include an attribute state under local requirement. ... 

When agreement is reached, the 5B draft is sent by the coordinating pharmacopeia to the other pharmacopeias no later than four weeks before a PDG meeting for final confirmation. The document is then presented for sign-off at the PDG meeting. This document includes nonharmonized attributes clearly marked as such. 

If necessary, the Stage 5B draft may be adopted with some amendments (local requirements) corresponding to a general policy in the national or regional (European) area. If a pharmacopeia includes a local attribute after the sign-off of a text, it will inform the PDG. It is, however, preferred to include the nonharmonized text in Stage 5B as an alert to the other pharmacopeias that there will be some differences in text in the final document. 

In closed system studies of the BZ reaction, three principal modes of homogeneous oscillations have been identified (1) low-frequency, large amplitude, highly nonlinear (i.e., nonharmonic) relaxation oscillations... 

Similar results hold for more general low-frequency fluctuations, nonharmonic and with arbitrary direction 9. Indeed, in the same rotating frame the dynamics reduces to rotation about the ((-axis by the angle (p(t) =...

A useful extension of this method consists in assuming that the membrane acquires a Boltzmann-like distribution of type (B.5) even for an arbitrary, nonharmonic potential /( ), which has a minimum at u = 0 [24,25]. When an external pressure Peat is applied to the undulating membrane, the relevant statistical potential is the enthalpy hill) = /(ii) + pextu and the membrane distribution is provided by ... 

Instead of the quasi-stationary state assumption of Kramers, he assumed only that the density of particles in the vicinity of the top of the barrier was essentially constant. Visscher included in the Foldcer-Planck equation a source term to accoimt for the injection of particles so as to compensate those escaping and evaluated the rate constant in the extreme low-friction limit. Blomberg considered a symmetric, piecewise parabolic bistable potratial and obtained a partial solution of the Fokker-Hanck equation in terms of tabulated functions by requiring this piecewise analytical solution to be continuous, the rate constant is obtained. The result differs from that of Kramers only when the potential has a sharp, nonharmonic barrier. 

In addition to the original tones each waveform produces by itself, synchronization adds nonharmonic overtones (also... 

Ring modulation is a special type of synchronization in which overtones almost completely suppress the original tones. What you re left with is a sound composed chiefly of nonharmonic overtones. The results are often surprising and bear little if any resemblance to so-called natural sounds.
