If the turbines used have high peak efficiencies, but behave poorly at partial load, less annual performance is obtained than with turbines that have a flat efficiency curve.

A type of hanging comparable to full suspension hanging may be obtained by self-strangulation using a ligature around the neck and the partial weight of the body ( partial suspension ) to tighten the ligature.

Tentatively making these assumptions, the following partial decrypted message is obtained.

Most classical force fields implicitly include the effect of polarizability, e. g. by scaling up the partial charges obtained from quantum chemical calculations.

The victory, albeit partial, illusory and apparent, caused a lot of hope in the peninsula and local conspirators in Turin, led by Santorre di Santarosa, marched toward the capital of the Kingdom of Sardinia and 12 March 1821 obtained the democratic constitution.

European Union rules governing the production of wine (" the product obtained exclusively from the total or partial alcoholic fermentation of fresh grapes, whether or not crushed, or of grape must ") are considerably longer than Community trade mark law: the main text, the Regulation on the common organization of the market in wine ( No 1493 / 1999 ), runs to over 46, 000 words.

A minor of an undirected graph G is any graph that may be obtained from G by a sequence of zero or more contractions of edges of G and deletions of edges and vertices of G. The minor relationship forms a partial order on the set of all distinct finite undirected graphs, as it obeys the three axioms of partial orders: it is reflexive ( every graph is a minor of itself ), transitive ( a minor of a minor of G is itself a minor of G ), and antisymmetric ( if two graphs G and H are minors of each other, then they must be isomorphic ).
