As might be expected, such rigidity places strain on interpersonal relationships, with frustration sometimes turning into anger and even violence.

The process of teleportation places a strain on his endurance and that of any passengers ; carrying mass other than his body and clothing when teleporting adds additional strain through his body.

This technique places minimal strain on both the hold and the arms.

Bytown ( Ottawa ), Kingston and Toronto receive more than other places, putting a strain on local resources while at the same drastically increasing and changing the composition of the population in the province.

While the trust that Eells places in Christian missionaryism may seem naive at best, one must remember that he was raised on a very liberal, humanistic strain of early-nineteenth-century Protestantism.

The hybrid variety ' Tifton 85 ', like some other grasses ( e. g. sorghum ), produces cyanide under certain conditions, and has been implicated in several livestock deaths ( note that in several places this variety has been incorrectly reported as a genetically modified strain ; actually it is a conventionally bred F < sub > 1 </ sub > hybrid ).

Nonetheless, the deamination process creates urea, which places low, but consistent, strain on the nephrons.

* Base wide, toed-out: the horse lands hard on the outside of the hoof wall and places excessive strain on the medial structures of the fetlock and pastern, leading to ringbone or sidebone, & potentially spraining structures of the carpus.

In the script Wayne's character refers to ' Timgad ' in sardonic reference to the apparent delusions of Paul's father, despite the fact this places a considerable strain on the geography of the plot.

This frequently places strain on the finances resulting in the need for fund-raising by supporters to enable missions to areas such as Southern Sudan, or Kitgum in northern Uganda to be possible.

The refugee crisis placed a substantial strain on Malawi's economy but also drew significant inflows of international assistance.

Increasing emphasis on economic development placed a growing strain on the system, and beginning in the mid-1970s a substantial proportion of public investment funds was allocated for transport sector development.

Assisting the country's ' war effort ' put a severe strain on the railways ' resources and a substantial maintenance backlog developed.

These sales losses were thought to be unrecoverable ; however, the 1979 energy crisis saw Australian oil prices rise by 140 percent, putting substantial strain on the automotive industry to collectively downsize, a change that Holden had already done.

The European population also originated from eastern North America, but with substantial genetic admixture with individuals of the European biocontrol strain ( estimated at about 40 %)..

Esthetically the result can be patients with flat cheeks, long faces, large nose-lip angles, weak chins, and substantial strain needed to approximate the lips.

-- The theory of elasticity of Gaussian networks has been developed on a more general basis and the equations of state relating variables of pressure, volume, temperature, stress and strain have been precisely formulated.

Concepts such as the stress concentration factor and the strain energy release rate can be used to predict failure.

In aerodynamics, air is normally assumed to be a Newtonian fluid, which posits a linear relationship between the shear stress ( the internal friction forces ) and the rate of strain of the fluid.

Once the fault has locked, continued relative motion between the plates leads to increasing stress and therefore, stored strain energy in the volume around the fault surface.

This process of gradual build-up of strain and stress punctuated by occasional sudden earthquake failure is referred to as the elastic-rebound theory.

In a solid, shear stress is a function of strain, but in a fluid, shear stress is a function of strain rate.

Depending on the relationship between shear stress, and the rate of strain and its derivatives, fluids can be characterized as one of the following:

* Newtonian fluids: where stress is directly proportional to rate of strain

* Non-Newtonian fluids: where stress is not proportional to rate of strain, its higher powers and derivatives.

Reversible elastic deformation in metals can be described by Hooke's Law for restoring forces, where the stress is linearly proportional to the strain.

Fine grained (< 300A grain size, US4897360 ), post strain annealed pure polysilicon was advocated by Prof Henry Guckel ( U. Wisconsin ); while a larger grain, doped stress controlled polysilicon was advocated by the UC Berkeley group.

It is defined, for small strains, as the ratio of rate of change of stress to strain.

** Seismology: stress, strain, and earthquakes

where S is strain, s is compliance and T is stress.

But conventionally, because strain and stress are all symmetric tensors, the subscript of strain and stress can be re-labeled in the following fashion: 11 → 1 ; 22 → 2 ; 33 → 3 ; 23 → 4 ; 13 → 5 ; 12 → 6.

The classical theory of elasticity deals with the behaviour of elastic solids under small deformations, for which ,( 1 ) according to Hooke's Law, stress is directly proportional to the strain — but independent of the rate of strain, or how fast the deformation was applied, and ( 2 ) the strains are completely recoverable once the stress is removed.
