The radius itself reduces the stress in these critical areas, but since the radius in most cases are rolled, this also leaves some compressive residual stress in the surface, which prevents cracks from forming.

While stems may reach a maximum height of 3 – 4 m each growing season, it is typical to see much smaller plants in places where they sprout through cracks in the pavement or are repeatedly cut down.

Two species live in caves, a habitat to which their ability to squeeze themselves into the smallest cracks makes them exceptionally well-adapted and in which constant living conditions are guaranteed.

Tiny opaque bumps called vesicles, thickening, and cracks are accompanied by itching, which gets worse at night.

For heat dissipation purposes, cross drilling is still used on some braking components, but is not favored for racing or other hard use as the holes are a source of stress cracks under severe conditions.

They are often made of borosilicate glass to prevent cracks or defacing of the glass.

In our own practice, to have the last `` intonaco '' plaster coat thick enough to match, and at the same time to avoid fine cracks in drying, we found that it had to be put on in two layers, letting the first set awhile before applying the second.

In the first case two cracks can be initiated and in the second only one crack can propagate.

As far as plagiarism is concerned, McKimson cited that the animators would always be looking at each other's sheets to see if they could borrow some punchlines and cracks.

When Steven Moffat took over in 2010, he introduced cracks in the universe which erase events and individuals from history ; using this device, he ' undid ' the events of " Journey's End " and " The Next Doctor " so that in the series ' narrative, the people of Earth would be ( once again ) unaware of alien life.

It is common for quench cracks to form when water quenched, although they may not always be visible.

The crystal should be sufficiently large ( typically larger than 0. 1 mm in all dimensions ), pure in composition and regular in structure, with no significant internal imperfections such as cracks or twinning.

Relative humidity should be increased to around 70 % in the last three days of incubation to keep the membrane around the hatching chick from drying out after the chick cracks the shell.

Inspectors will be provided with lists and descriptions of unacceptable product defects such as cracks or surface blemishes for example.

Cracking of the concrete section is nearly impossible to prevent ; however, the size and location of cracks can be limited and controlled by appropriate reinforcement, control joints, curing methodology and concrete mix design.

One of the interesting features of the crater is its squared-off outline, believed to be caused by pre-existing regional jointing ( cracks ) in the strata at the impact site.

No repair is possible for the cracks, and if cracking becomes severe, the disc must be replaced.

In 1870 the tower piers were found to be badly weakened with many cracks and cavities.

Since the cloudy appearance is due to nonuniform glass dissolution, it is ( somewhat paradoxically ) less marked if dissolution is higher, i. e. if a silicate-free detergent is used ; also, in certain cases, the etching will primarily be seen in areas that have microscopic surface cracks as a result of the items ' manufacturing.

The statue was promoted as being solid granite, although it was subsequently revealed to be concrete when cracks formed years later.
