In the case of SWNT, covalent functionalization will break some C = C double bonds, leaving " holes " in the structure on the nanotube and, thus, modifying both its mechanical and electrical properties.

In this case, a single mechanical and electrical system can be used to connect together many of the system components, or in some cases, all of them.

This is because there is no one-to-one correspondence between electromagnetic units in SI and those in CGS, as is the case for mechanical units.

Since very few actual implementations of heat engines exactly match their underlying thermodynamic cycles, one could say that a thermodynamic cycle is an ideal case of a mechanical engine.

In any case, fully understanding an engine and its efficiency requires gaining a good understanding of the ( possibly simplified or idealized ) theoretical model, the practical nuances of an actual mechanical engine, and the discrepancies between the two.

The two neighbors took the first ex-aequo prize of the Congress of Documentary Film in 1943, for the first French underwater film: Par dix-huit mètres de fond ( 18 meters deep ), made without breathing apparatus the previous year in the Embiez islands ( Var ) with Philippe Tailliez and Frédéric Dumas, using a depth-pressure-proof camera case developed by mechanical engineer Léon Vèche ( engineer of Arts and Métiers and the Naval College ).

When the measured pressure is rapidly pulsing, such as when the gauge is near a reciprocating pump, an orifice restriction in the connecting pipe is frequently used to avoid unnecessary wear on the gears and provide an average reading ; when the whole gauge is subject to mechanical vibration, the entire case including the pointer and indicator card can be filled with an oil or glycerin.

A wind-up clock stores potential energy ( in this case mechanical, in the spring tension ), a battery stores readily convertible chemical energy to operate a mobile phone, and a hydroelectric dam stores energy in a reservoir as gravitational potential energy.

Supposedly, due to another mechanical trick, when the king reached the first step, the ox stretched forth its leg, on which Solomon leaned, a similar action taking place in the case of the animals on each of the six steps.

Temperature systems are primarily either electrical or mechanical, occasionally inseparable from the system which they control ( as in the case of a mercury-in-glass thermometer ).

In the normal case, the large joints of the lower limb are aligned on a straight line which represents the mechanical longitudinal axis of the leg, the Mikulicz line.

The optical axis is often coincident with the system's mechanical axis, but not always, as in the case of off-axis optical systems.

As, sometimes, a tube or another mechanical part has to cross a wall or floor that has special fire insulation material or that have special fire insulation resistance, it is needed to recover the original level of security of the fire system in case of maintenance, or to reach the designed level of security, so to avoid or delay the propagation of flame, smoke and heat accordingly.

In that case the Court considered the clear and present danger test, but rejected it as too mechanical and instead introduced a balancing test.

Theoretical considerations aside, in real world use the mechanical advantage of the trucker's hitch is significantly less than the ideal case due to the effects of friction.

This is similar to the advantage of Gray codes in the construction of mechanical encoders, however the source of the Gray code is an electronic counter in this case.

In the case of the Flintstones ' cuckoo clocks, which varied from mechanical toys to live birds announcing the time, when the hour approached 12: 00, the bird inside the clock " cuckooing " usually just ran out of steam and gave up vocally, physically, or both.

In this case, the flywheel — which is mounted on the crankshaft — stores energy when torque is exerted on it by a firing piston, and it releases energy to its mechanical loads when no piston is exerting torque on it.

The special case of mechanical equilibrium of a stationary object is static equilibrium.

In the case of tissues or cells, a combination of biochemical and mechanical techniques – including various types of filtration and centrifugation – may be used to separate different cell compartments and organelles prior to electrophoresis.

And there is a small museum of the local industrial history, in this case a mechanical work shop.

As was the case with black-and-white television, an electronic means of scanning would be superior to the mechanical systems like Baird's.

A mechanical analogy in the K = 1 case with magnetic field energy ( 1 / 2 ) Li < sup > 2 </ sup > is a body with mass M, velocity u and kinetic energy ( 1 / 2 ) Mu < sup > 2 </ sup >.

The tautochrone problem is a special case of Abel's mechanical problem when T ( y ) is a constant.

It is the quantum mechanical version of an ideal gas, for the case of fermionic particles.

Pearson v. Chung, the case of a Washington, D. C. judge, Roy Pearson, who sued a dry cleaning business for $ 67 million ( later lowered to $ 54 million ), has been cited as an example of frivolous litigation.

Objects in the environment pose little risk of transmission except in the case of crusted scabies, thus cleaning is of little importance.

Whitman then drove to Chuck's Gun Shop, where he purchased four further carbine magazines, six additional boxes of ammunition and a can of gun cleaning solvent, before driving to Sears, where he purchased a 12 gauge semi-automatic shotgun and a green rifle case.

*“ Lost ” Church painting is found-Oliver Brothers Fine Art Restoration, Boston, while cleaning of the 19th-century work found the clue that cracked the case

The large space inside allowed plenty of room for dust to settle and the contact heads were almost impossible to access and clean without unscrewing the case or using the official cleaning kit.

In this case, its use is restricted to cleaning the anus and genitals.

In 1943 he designed and built an experimental cleaning unit to be used in case of gas attack.

Though it has seemed " obvious " to mathematicians literally for centuries that proving B from A conjoined with a set of theorems is sufficient to proving the implication A → B based on those theorems alone, it was left to Herbrand and Tarski to show ( independently ) this was logically correct in the general case — another instance, perhaps, of modern logic " cleaning up " mathematical practice.

Since the primer cup, ignition compound and anvil are together as one piece, the anvil depth must be the correct match for the primer that is being inserted, so that the primer does not suffer excessive crushing potentially causing ignition ( priming is done as the first step, after cleaning and resizing the empty case before the powder is added ).

Omega transforms into a neutronic laser tank with a rotating cannon unit, which he can always been found cleaning out in case of an attack.

In groundwater wells, biofouling build-up can limit recovery flow rates, as is the case in the exterior and interior of ocean-laying pipes where fouling is often removed with a tube cleaning process.

The polymer sometimes has to offer a low binding affinity for separated molecules ( as in the case of biotechnology applications ), and has to withstand the harsh cleaning conditions.

This may be brought on directly, as in the case of nasal piercings, or indirectly, as by long-term topical drug use like cocaine or decongestant nasal sprays, chronic epistaxis, aggressive digital nasal cleaning ( nose picking ) and as a complication of nasal surgery like septoplasty or rhinoplasty.

The treasure trove rule was first given serious consideration by the Oregon Supreme Court in 1904 in a case involving boys who had discovered thousands of dollars in gold coins hidden in metal cans while cleaning out a henhouse.

It may range from minor, if only the label of a package is being changed ( for example from an English to a Spanish label ) to major, requiring complete disassembly of the equipment, cleaning and sterilizing of the line components in the case of an injectable pharmaceutical product.

Restoration can be as simple as light cleaning to remove disfiguring dirt or grime, such as on the surface of a painting, or it may include near complete rebuilding or replacement, as might be the case with old automobiles or furniture.
