Words to avoid

The item/descriptor distinction is exactly the same as instance/class. (We use different words to avoid any additional confusion between the modeling domain and the software.) Indeed, in some programming languages (such as Smalltalk), classes are represented by objects, and each instance has an implicit link to its class. The class objects are themselves instances of a Class class, and new ones with new attributes can be created at runtime. This property of the language is known as reflection. 

The desire to maximize reutilization of the equipment for the proposed twofold increase in plant capacity. Or, in other words, to avoid buying new equipment or carrying out modifications that could become redundant in 2-3 years. 

It is incorrect to refer to bitumen as tar or pitch. Although the word tar is somewhat descriptive of the black bituminous material, it is best to avoid its use in referring to natural materials. More correctly, the name tar is usually appHed to the heavy product remaining after the destmctive distillation of coal (qv) or other organic matter. Pitch is the distillation residue of the various types of tar (see Tar and pitch). 

An important question is whether one can rigorously express such an average without referring explicitly to the solvent degrees of freedom. In other words. Is it possible to avoid explicit reference to the solvent in the mathematical description of the molecular system and still obtain rigorously correct properties The answer to this question is yes. A reduced probability distribution P(X) that depends only on the solute configuration can be defined as... 

To avoid the problems described above relative to the interpretation of the results, it is necessary to work at a lower scale. In other words, modern nanotechnology must be used to contact electrically smaller... 

Try to avoid bolting on continuous improvement, rather make it an int ral part of the systems you put in place. If it is bolted on, it is probably not essential for day-to-day management and could quickly be ignored. For example, you might decide that the overall system will be reviewed every two years to identify improvement opportunities this can too easily be postponed, forgotten or abandoned. Instead, the system should be designed to identify weaknesses and improvement opportunities at any time. In other words, continuous improvement must be built-in. 

Although the term fretting corrosion implies chemical reaction, it has often been used even when the latter is absent. Campbell has suggested that to avoid confusion the word fretting be used to describe the wear process, and that the expression fretting corrosion be applied in those cases where one or both of the surfaces, or the wear particles from them, react with their environment. 

To avoid the problems shown above, a new approach has been developed. It is called deracemization and consists in the transformation of a racemic substrate into one enantiomer of the product. In other words, it means that one enantiomer of... 

Drastic sampling and subjective judgment was required to condense 40 years of research in heterogeneous catalysis into a few thousand words. There might be rather little overlap between this paper and that with the same title written by another author. References have been omitted to avoid presenting a sampling of names with the implication that they alone were responsible for the advances. 

The study protocol determines the quantities of raw materials to be processed. The protocol should state the quantity of each fraction sample to be provided and whether multiple samples are to be drawn from each fraction sample. The wording of the protocol should allow for a range of quantities that is to be provided for each processes commodity to avoid having to prepare protocol deviations. For example, stating that a minimum of 1 lb of pur6e is to be provided avoids a protocol deviation if the processor provides 1.1 lb of purde.
