Resiliency definition

Resilin and elastin, unlike other structural proteins, fulfill both definitions of an elastic material. Colloquially speaking, resilin and elastin are stretchy or flexible. They also fulfill the strict definition of an elastic material, i.e., the ability to deform in proportion to the magnitude of an applied stress without a loss of energy, and the recovery of the material to its original state when that stress is removed. Resilin and elastin are alone in the category of structural proteins (e.g., collagen, silk, etc.) in that they have the correct blend of physical properties that allow the proteins to fulfill both definitions of elasticity. Both proteins have high extensibility and combine that property with remarkable resilience [208]. 

To make cut pile carpets, two strands of BCF yarns are twisted together and heat-set with steam using a Superba heat setting machine at 135-145 °C or at 175-195 °C when heat-set with super-heated steam in a Suessen. An experimental design experiment [94] showed the higher the heat set temperature, then the lower is the bulk of the final carpet, but there is an increase in the tip definition and walk performance. The tufted carpets are then dyed with disperse dyes at atmospheric boil [95] in a continuous or a batch process. PTT carpets showed excellent resiliency in walk test experiments, equivalent to a nylon and much better than both PET and polypropylene, had lower static charge of <3.5 kV, and were resistant to coffee, mustard, betadine, red acid dyes and other stains [96],... 

Western ethics may also involve an attenuation of the ego, but in general as means rather than as an end, and it never pursues this to the limit. The renunciating of one s attachments is a value in the West, but it exists as a means to help or serve others or God better (one distributes one s worldly goods to the poor ) not, as is the case in Buddhism, as a direct means to achieve the absence of suffering. The individual may also be devalued in comparison with the social class of which he is a member, but the Buddhist will retort that in fact such an individual does not exist, that he is merely an illusion. Humility, as when one says that the self is small when compared with God, is largely a way of increasing God s stature by relying upon a very resilient self for support. In fact, a Buddhist will reply, none of that exists, neither God nor self (or, more precisely, there is undoubtedly no God for the theravada Buddhist and there is definitely no self for all Buddhists). 

Before describing some basic problems in systematic analysis and synthesis of resilient HENs, we need to establish a common vocabulary of clearly defined terms. (Most of these definitions are adopted from Gross-mann and Morari, 1983.)... 

By using these definitions for AJm and load violations and surpluses, the following MILP can be formulated to test the resilience of a minimum unit HEN with breakpoints (Saboo et al., 1987a) ... 

A soul that remains as healthy and resilient as it has ever been. By definition, your soul has always remained true to you. But now you are listening to it, being directed by it, abiding by it. 

Body is defined in the textile trade as that compact, soft, or firm-feel of textile stock or fabric [161]—a tactile property. With regard to human hair, body may be defined as thickness or apparent volume of a hair assembly, involving sight and touch for assessment. The quality of liveliness or springiness [162] is also associated with hair body. Hough et al. [2] have defined body as the structural strength and resiliency of a hair mass, which is consistent with the preceding definitions. 

Although the Myers and Danishefsky groups were the first to complete total syntheses of dynemicin A (1), the core architecture of the entire natural product had, in fact, been completed several months earher by Professor Stuart L. Schreiber and his group at Yale University (now at Harvard University). All that separated the advanced stracture synthesized by these researchers (107, Scheme 16) from the final target were three phenolic methyl ethers, which, unfortunately, proved resilient to cleavage. As such, the developed route cannot constitute a total synthesis in the strict sense of the definition. However, based on our discussion above, the accomplishment of even this advanced compound is certainly laudable, and, for this reason, this work is included here because it provides an alternative and especially creative solution for the construction of the key architectural elements of dynemicin A.

The results of our review are thus a survey of definitions of resilience, characteristics or praxis of resilient organizations and theoretical understanding given by mental models describing resihence. 

We have identified several definitions of resilience. One commonly used, from Hollnagel (2006) is mentioned initally. In a similar way Woods (2006) is focusing on unanticipated disturbances, and his definition is How well can a system handle disruptions and variations that fall outside of the base mechanisms/model... 

In this section we are discussing the definitions and background of resihence, using the experiences from resilient organisations and discussing characteristics of resihent organizations. 

The apparent bulk that hair assumes after grooming is an important aesthetic characteristic often referred to as body, which can be considered a property associated with Robbins term style retention. Tolgyesi and co-workers (67) proposed the following definition of this hair assembly property Body is a measure of a hair mass s resistance to and recovery from externally induced deformation. This definition correlates well with the descriptive components springiness, volume, and stiffness that Wedderbum and Prall have obtained by applying statistical techniques to word association (58). The structural strength and resiliency of the hair mass are influenced by a number of independent parameters. Tolgyesi has identified the five most important parameters as fiber density...
