Asymmetry in deformation

Nature Materials, 2021
Amorphous silicon shows abnormal tension–compression asymmetry, with much higher tensile yield strength than compressive yield. This discovery advances our understanding of plasticity in this and other similar amorphous materials.

Endocrine asymmetry

Journal of Endocrinology, 1987
Abstract A hormone is a substance carried in the blood to a target tissue, where it elicits a response. Target tissues are sometimes separate and paired (e.g. gonads and adrenals) or, perhaps, bilobed (e.g. thyroid). These tissues respond to trophic hormones, and it would be expected that each member of the pair would behave similarly

Neuroendocrine Asymmetry

Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology, 1997
The information available at present clearly indicates that asymmetry exists from the level of elementary particles to the human cerebral cortex, the latest stage of evolution. Cerebral lateralization is one of the well-known asymmetries. This paper summarizes the data published in the past decades on the asymmetry of the neuroendocrine system.

A Justifiable Asymmetry

The Journal of Clinical Ethics, 2015
It is a clinician's cliché that a physician only challenges a patient's capacity to make a treatment decision if that decision is not what the physician wants. Agreement is proof of decisional capacity; disagreement is proof or at least evidence of capacity's absence.

Mammary Asymmetry

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1975
Significant mammary asymmetry is not uncommon although accurate statistics are not available. Modern techniques of mammary augmentation and breast reduction have resulted in effective methods of treatment of most such deformities. The management of this problem was discussed.

Asymmetry in the skull

Cells Tissues Organs, 1979
Various linear and angular measurements were taken in 118 normal skulls of adult humans. The two halves of the skulls were found to be symmetrical. The phenomenon of asymmetry of various parts of the body, in relation to cerebral dominance and specific skills has been discussed in view of the findings of the study and in the light of the available ...

Time Asymmetry as Universe Asymmetry

2004
The problem of time asymmetry, also known as the problem of the arrow of time, can be summarized in the following question: How is it possible an evident time asymmetry if the laws of physics are time symmetric? In fact, all the laws of physics are invariant under time reversal t → − t 1.

Cerebellar asymmetries

The cerebellum is a subcortical structure tucked underneath the cerebrum that contains the majority of neurons in the brain, despite its small size. While it has received less attention in the study of brain asymmetries than the cerebrum, structural asymmetries in the cerebellum have been found in cerebellar volume that mirror cerebral asymmetries ...

Development of asymmetries

Seminars in Orthodontics, 1998
One of the goals of the management of the developing occlusion and the correction of malocclusion is the establishment of symmetry within the individual arches (arch form) and the occlusal relationships between the maxillary and mandibular arches. The symmetry in arch form is related to the axial inclinations and rotations of the individual teeth.
