Unlike most composers of his time, he appears never to have sought a post at either a church or noble court, but then he was a man of independent means and had the option to compose music independently.

Unlike Louis Antoine de Bougainville, whose reports from a journey to Tahiti a few years earlier had initiated uncritical noble savage romanticism, Forster had a very sophisticated picture of the societies of the South Pacific islands.

Unlike in other European countries of the time, the nobility in Bohemia was not a part of the literary audience and thus this split of literary effort led to a certain lack of development and stagnation of Czech baroque literature in comparison to other European countries of the time, especially in genres that were written for noble courts.

Unlike the commoner status of a British peer's wife and descendants ( yet typical of the nobility of every continental European country ), the legitimate children and male-line descendants of any French nobleman ( whether titled or not, whether possessing a French peerage or not ) were also legally noble ad infinitum.

Unlike the majority of the pretenders during the Crisis of the Third Century, Valerian was of a noble and traditional senatorial family.

Unlike the grapes from which other dessert wines are made, such as Sauternes, Tokaji, or Trockenbeerenauslese, ice wine grapes should not be affected by Botrytis cinerea or noble rot, at least not to any great degree.

Unlike the earlier half-tax decrees, this one was conservative, and its aim was to protect noble lands from division rather than to justify it.

Unlike other girls born in noble families, Li was outgoing and knowledgeable.

Unlike the European and Japanese aristocracy where noble titles were conferred on a hereditary basis, the yangban title was de jure conferred to those individuals who passed state-sponsored civil service exams called gwageo ( 과거, 科擧 ) and their immediate family members.

Unlike in French, the Spanish spellings of surnames containing the prepositional particle de are ambiguous without a preceding patronymic, an orthographic style common to noble surnames, thus, the lower-case spellings de la Rúa (“ of the street ") and de la Torre (“ of the tower ”) and the upper-case spellings De la Rúa and De la Torre are equally correct.

Unlike most Han Dynasty empresses, Empress He was not from a noble family ; rather, her father He Zhen ( 何真 ) was a butcher in Nanyang ( 南陽, in modern Nanyang, Henan ).

Unlike the situation at nearby Melrose Abbey with its royal patronage, Hugh de Morville, although a very wealthy noble, could not endow Dryburgh on the same scale as that of a monarch.

Unlike the other Westerosi noble houses, the Targaryens marry brother to sister, often with three people to a marriage, to keep the bloodline pure.

Unlike Zoranamak, Gahnamak was listing the noble houses based on the criteria of political and economic importance of the houses, size of their estates, their wealth, as well as their connections and influence over the royal courts.

Unlike other verse forms which are traditionally enjoyed only by high class Vietnamese, lục bát is traditionally composed and enjoyed by people of all classes, from the lowly peasants to the noble princes.

Unlike all the other noble Orders the rules requiring noble proofs are strictly enforced and there is no category of " honorary " or " grace " knights.

Unlike his descendant Vladimir Harkonnen, Xavier was noble in nature, courageous, and possessed unshakable integrity.

Unlike gases, plasmas may self-generate magnetic fields and electric currents, and respond strongly and collectively to electromagnetic forces.

Unlike the troposphere, where greenhouse gases result in the atmosphere heating up, increased CO < sub > 2 </ sub > in the mesosphere acts to cool the atmosphere due to increased radiative emission by CO < sub > 2 </ sub >.

Unlike Nixies, the glass envelope of a VFD is evacuated rather than being filled with a specific mixture of gases at low pressure.

Unlike typical NiCd cells, which are sealed, vented cells have a vent or low pressure release valve that releases any generated oxygen and hydrogen gases when overcharged or discharged rapidly.

Unlike the gills of fish, human lungs are adapted to the exchange of gases at atmospheric pressure, not liquids.

* Precision: Unlike liquids, gases change volume significantly when pressurized making it difficult to achieve precision.

Unlike gases, a typical liquid propellant has a density similar to water, approximately 0. 7-1. 4g / cm³ ( except liquid hydrogen which has a much lower density ), while requiring only relatively modest pressure to prevent vapourisation.

Unlike many non-graphitizing carbons, they are impermeable to gases and are chemically extremely inert, especially those prepared at very high temperatures.

Unlike conventional gases granular materials will tend to cluster and clump due to the dissipative nature of the collisions between grains.

Unlike gases or liquids, solid materials tend to keep their shape when undergoing thermal expansion.

Unlike sodium, lead is mostly inert, so there is less risk of explosion or accident, but such large quantities of lead may be problematic from toxicology and disposal points of view.

Unlike lithium and sodium, however, potassium should not be stored under oil for longer than 6 months, unless in an inert ( oxygen free ) atmosphere, or under vacuum.

Unlike petroleum-based lubricants, K-Y is generally biologically inert, and contains no color or perfume additives.

Unlike the other gas giants, Uranus has an extreme tilt that causes its seasons to be severely pronounced.

Unlike gas balloons, the envelope does not have to be sealed at the bottom since the air near the bottom of the envelope is at the same pressure as the surrounding air.

Unlike the Schrödinger's cat thought experiment which used poison gas and a radioactive decay trigger, this version involves a life-terminating device and a device that measures the spin value of protons.

Unlike aerodynamic aircraft such as fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters, which produce lift by moving a wing through the air, aerostatic aircraft stay aloft by having a large " envelope " filled with a gas which is less dense than the surrounding atmosphere.

Unlike most gas turbines, an emergency power unit has no gas compressor or ignitors, and uses a combination of hydrazine and water, rather than jet fuel.

Unlike a classical ideal gas, whose pressure is proportional to its temperature ( P = nkT / V, where P is pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of particles — typically atoms or molecules — k is Boltzmann's constant, and T is temperature ), the pressure exerted by degenerate matter depends only weakly on its temperature.

Unlike many other arachnids, ricinuleids have no book lungs, and gas exchange takes place through trachea.

Unlike other shunt protector devices, a GDT once triggered will continue to conduct at a voltage less than the high voltage that initially ionized the gas ; this behavior is called negative resistance.

Unlike an ideal gas, though, in which tiny particles move constantly, stopping the shaking would simply cause the beads to drop.

Unlike isolated systems, like atoms or molecules in gas phase, the density distributions are not discrete like a spectral density but continuous.

Unlike gas stoves that are powered by gas, it is powered by electricity.

Unlike conventional gas-operated firearms, direct impingement does away with a separate gas cylinder, piston, and operating rod assembly.

Unlike much natural gas from conventional reservoirs, coalbed methane contains very little heavier hydrocarbons such as propane or butane, and no natural gas condensate.

Unlike gas, liquid, or solid-state lasers such as diode lasers, in which electrons are excited in bound atomic or molecular states, FELs use a relativistic electron beam as the lasing medium which moves freely through a magnetic structure, hence the term free electron.

Unlike most other gas switch tubes, the krytron uses arc discharge to handle very high voltages and currents ( several kV and several kA peak ), rather than the usual low-current glow discharge.

Unlike most centrifuges which rely on batch processing, the gas centrifuge utilizes continuous processing, allowing cascading, in which multiple identical processes occur in succession.

Unlike the M16 where the gas is directed into a cavity around the bolt, the MAS system vents the gas to the air after expanding in a hollow on the bolt carrier.

Unlike the DEFA cannon, the revolver chamber is electrically operated, rather than gas operated, improving both reliability and rate of fire.

Unlike ionizers, ozone generators are designed to produce significant amounts of ozone, a strong oxidant gas which can oxidize many other chemicals.
