DYNAMIC COMPONENT [10 records]

Record 1 2024-11-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Morphology and General Physiology
  • Endocrine System and Metabolism
CONT

Isometric thermogenesis : This is due to increased muscle tension(without muscle shortening) ;no physical work is actually done. For example, the differences in energy expenditure in a person who is lying, sitting, or standing are mainly due to changes in muscle tone for posture maintenance. While most physical activities consist of both dynamic and static(isometric) muscle actions, the isometric component is very often essential for the optimal performance of dynamic work given its role in coordinating posture during standing, walking and most physical activities of everyday life.

Subject field(s)
  • Analytical Chemistry
CONT

In contrast to the automatic recording instruments monitoring volume increases at constant pressure, van de Craats maintained the volume constant and recorded automatically the pressure changes by means of an electromagnetic manometer devised by Kinkel.... In addition to van de Craats’ work with pressure-sensing devices, Novák and Janák constructed a detector which represents the pneumatic analog of a Wheatstone bridge, employing the dynamic effects of pneumatic obstructions such as capillaries and constrictions for determining component fractions emerging from the gas chromatographic column. Requiring no electrical power yet having an accuracy comparable to high precision thermal conductivity cells, it expresses the pressure differential, either differentially or integrally, caused by the eluted component as a diagonal from zero. Furthermore, the substance analyzed is never in contact with the detector.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biochemistry
CONT

The quantitative aspects of elemental electrospray mass spectrometry are investigated with particular emphasis on the factors affecting the ability to establish linear calibration curves. It is shown that linear calibration curves can be obtained for trace elements if the analyte signal is ratioed to the signal from a constant amount of a similarly charged electrolyte species. Linear calibration curves can be established over a concentration dynamic range of at least 4 orders of magnitude. The added component seems to function as a stabilizer and monitor of the electrospray process and as an internal standard. In certain cases species generated by acidification of the solvent may be used as electrospray stabilizers.

Domaine(s)
  • Biochimie
CONT

L'électronébulisation, connue sous le nom d'electrospray (ES), génère des ions multichargés , et permet l'utilisation d'analyseurs conventionnels peu onéreux comme les quadripôles. En effet, comme ce sont les rapports masse/charge qui sont mesurés par cette méthode, une protéine de masse 100 000 peut donner des ions 100 fois chargés apparaissant sur le spectre de masse au rapport masse/charge 1000.

The Health Sciences Association of British Columbia is a dynamic union representing more that 13, 000 health care and social services professionals at over 250 facilities and agencies in acute care, long-term care, and community health, including workers at child development centres and transition houses. HSA is actively involved in the fight against breast cancer. HSA members play an important role in the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of breast cancer patients. In addition, since 1997 HSA has been an official sponsor of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation's annual Run for the Cure. Formed in 1971, HSA is governed by a constitution, and is made up of local chapters that are grouped into ten regions. Each region is represented by a Regional director, who together with the President form HSA's Board of Directors. HSA is a component of the National Union of Public and General Employees(NUPGE), and is affiliated to both the Canadian Labour Congress(CLC) and the BC Federation of Labour.

CONT

Due to the fact that different brands of roofing tiles are made from different materials, there can be no single approved method for applying tile roofs ... The following are two acceptable methods of installing Lifetile tile roofs. The first is based on a test report submitted by Lifetile. The second method is based on a procedure accepted by the Southern Building Code Congress through the National Evaluation Service. One of these two methods shall be used to apply Lifetile tile roofs. These methods do not apply to any other brands of tile roofing.

CONT

... in regards drainage systems : Protective layers must permanently protect structure sealants from damaging influences, whether these be of static, dynamic or thermal origin. They may, in individual cases, form functional layers of the structure. In other words, the tile covering, as a protective layer designed to use, is actually a component of the sealant system.

CONT

Replacing the old roof covering with a new, different roof covering may be difficult. Replacing asphalt shingles with a heavier slate or concrete tile covering may not be practical if the roof is not designed to take the increased loading.

CONT

In the end, we advised that all the tiles be removed to replace defective deck panels and install new underlayment. After testing several types of clay and concrete tiles at a 3 in 12 slope in our laboratory facilities, we concluded that tile roofing was not suited to such a low slope.
