The built in potential gives the degree to which band bending occurs but tells us nothing about how this happens spatially.

On the other hand, nylon thread is more suited to peyote stitch because it is softer and more pliable than fishing line, which permits the beads of the stitch to sit straight without undue tension bending the arrangement out of place.

Photographs sleeved or encapsulated in polyester cannot be stored vertically in boxes because they will slide down next to each other within the box, bending and folding, nor can the archivist write directly onto the polyester to identify the photograph.

This is because the impact of landing from the ballistic phase is absorbed by bending the leg and consequently storing energy in muscles and tendons.

The fixed jaw can withstand bending stress far better than can the movable jaw, because the latter is supported only by the flat surfaces on either side of the guide slot, not the full thickness of the tool.

For instance, bending without stretching or tearing a page of paper gives an isometric embedding of the page into Euclidean space because curves drawn on the page retain the same arclength however the page is bent.

A specialized technique called " meend " involves pulling the main melody string down over the bottom portion of the sitar's curved frets, with which the sitarist can achieve a seven semitone range of microtonal notes ( it should be noted, however, that because of the sitar's movable frets, sometimes a fret may be set to a microtone already, and no bending would be required ).

Rather, soft-hammer flakes are most often produced by what is referred to as a bending fracture, so-called because the flake is quite literally bent or " peeled " from the objective piece.

In the sculpture shown to the right, the figure can be placed upon slender lower legs and the balls of the feet only because the bending stress in the sculpture is taken through the flowing drapery of the skirt, which is founded upon an upthrust portion of the ground and with the feet forms a tripod-like foundation for the mass.

In broadwords, for instance, because the blade is typically rather wide, thin, and heavy, a blade can be prone to bending during combat.

This is because beams yield axially instead of bending.

Freehub style hubs are inherently stronger than screw on sprocket and freewheel set ups because it allows the bearings on the drive side of the hub to sit nearer to the end of the hub axle, reducing bending in the axle caused by chain tension and rider weight, a significant problem leading to fatigue failure in many axles as 6 and 7 speed blocks were introduced.

The use of a mattock can be tiring because of the effort needed to drive the blade into the ground, and the amount of bending and stooping involved.

For example, astronauts return from missions slightly younger than they would have been if they had remained on Earth, and Global Positioning System | GPS satellites work because they adjust for similar bending of spacetime to coordinate with systems on earth.

Catchers often experience knee tendinitis because of the constant squatting and bending of the knees while catching.

The most serious common problem arose because of a design fault in the screen cable where tooling holes caused unnecessary stressing due to additional bending of the cable at this point each time the Psion Series 5 was opened or closed and eventually leading to failure of the cable, which caused a serious display malfunction and the appearance of vertical lines on the screen.

Like the truss, a space frame is strong because of the inherent rigidity of the triangle ; flexing loads ( bending moments ) are transmitted as tension and compression loads along the length of each strut.

This terminology can be confusing because in a helical torsion spring the forces acting on the wire are actually bending stresses, not torsional ( shear ) stresses.

It is unique because of constant bending and stretching of knees which is called o-kum jil.

In fact, for structural engineers, analysis of the barrel vault has become a benchmark test of a structural engineering computer model " because of the complex membrane and inextensional bending states of stress " involved.

This means the frames of shape-memory alloy glasses are claimed to be " nearly indestructible " because it appears no amount of bending results in permanent plastic deformation.

The late medieval poet Iolo Goch claims that he could " reach a stone from the ground to kill a raven, without bending his back, because his arm was as long as his side to the ground.

Tropical-mix wood particleboard, made from tropical timber residues and wood waste, is considered superior to rubber-wood particleboard because of its higher bending strength.

The unilateral contraction of a longitudinal muscle will produce little or no bending and will serve to increase the diameter of the muscular hydrostat because of the constant volume principle that must be met.

A full hollow ground ( 1 / 1 ) blade can keep a very sharp edge even after a great number of honing cycles because of its high degree of hollowness but it is more susceptible to torsional bending because it is thinner.

These continuous tension – discontinuous compression structures featured single force compression members ( no flexure or bending moments ) that did not touch each other and were ' suspended ' by the tensional members.

* Compression ( where each partner ' compress ' the energy by bending joints and moving towards or ' into ' their partner, to varying degrees );

However, each leg can also be shortened and bent by internal muscles ; due to the lack of joints, this bending can take place at any point along the sides of the leg.

The magnetic field strength of each of the bending magnets is increased as the particles gain energy in order to keep the bending angle constant.

More intensive versions of this jump include bending down ( over ) and touching the floor in between each jump.

Also even with relatively small pin counts each extraction is fairly awkward and carries a significant risk of bending pins ( particularly if the person performing the extraction hasn't had much practice or the board is crowded ).

Males threaten each other for dominance over the female by trying to stand taller than the other, making low noises and a series of head movements including lowering, lifting, and bending their necks backwards.

In essence, hedgelaying consists of cutting most of the way through the stem of each plant near the base, bending it over and interweaving or pleaching it between wooden stakes.

When applied, each staple leg forms a curve bending outwards.

The distinction of the true spaceframe is that all the forces in each strut are either tensile or compression, never bending.

The Experiment Hall surrounds the storage ring and is divided into 35 sectors, each of which has access to x-ray beamlines, one at an insertion device, and the other at a bending magnet.

The dancers round off their dancing by facing each other in twos and threes and moving their shoulders faster-this can also involve jumping and bending your knees and going down to the floor to sit in a squatting position while bobbing those shoulders and moving the head sideways to the strong drum beats.

With these bending capabilities, the XB-40 gives access to all the notes on the chromatic scale through bending the natural tones of each hole.

In some yards, when a player has all the letters that spell ' KINGS ' the game is over and the losing player must face the penalty known as ' asses up ' which consists of the losing player bending over with his head against the wall and his buttocks up while each of the other players take turns having three throws of the ball from across the street at the loser's buttocks, any hit on the buttocks ( legs and back do not count as a hit ) gives everyone another turn of three throws.

Using just the basic notes on the instrument would mean playing in a specific mode for each position ( e. g. playing in D Dorian or G mixolydian on a C Major harmonica ), but techniques such as bending enable different modes to be used at each position ( e. g. playing in E mixolydian on a C Major harmonica ).

While europlug pins are designed to be flexible, the resulting bending force, plus the wider tip of each pin, can sometimes make the pins difficult to remove from a BS 1363 socket.

This rule is occasionally broken where a very large number of spokes is used or the wheel is unusually small in diameter, either of which reduce the amount of bending stress on each radial spoke to an acceptable degree ; some BMX bicycles and low-riders use radial spoking for both wheels.

On its website, the United States Quoiting Association explains that poorer citizens in ancient Greece, who could not afford to buy a real discus, made their own by bending horseshoes-which in those days weighed as much as four pounds each.
