Voice Mechanisms and Performance

2007
This chapter presents the performance associations connected with the observed ER patterns in German subsidiaries that were discussed in the preceding chapter. It was noted that these patterns emerge from the interplay between home-country, host-country and dominance effects. The ER-subsidiary performance links are analysed in a three-stage process. In

Mechanical performance of sutures in surgery

The American Journal of Surgery, 1977
In this study, we have compared the recommended configuration of a knot with specified sutures as ascertained by mechanical performance tests to that employed by a group of board-certified surgeons. Agreement between the surgeon and the results of the test was encountered in only one fourth of the instances.

Electrospray, Mechanism and Performance

1991
Recent work by Fenn et al. [1–4] has demonstrated the extraordinary potential of electrospray ionization (ES) as an interface for capillary liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Henion et al. [5–7] using a modification of the electrospray method in which the nebulization of the liquid effluent is achieved by a turbulent gas (N2) flow, have also ...

Green composites: sustainability and mechanical performance

Plastics, Rubber and Composites, 2013
This study considers the mechanical properties of a range of thermosetting resin systems, including systems with bioderived content, and associated natural fibre composites. The bioderived resin systems (22 and 40% biocontent) demonstrated similar tensile strength to standard resin systems, indicating their potential to be a substitute for such systems.

Mechanical performance of surgical needle holders

The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 1991
A new quantitative measurement of surgical needle holder performance has been described that records the forces (clamping moment) applied by the needle holder jaws to curved surgical needles. This test has been used to determine the applied clamping forces of four different surgical needle holders made by one manufacturer.

Mechanization and crop performance

1978
In the last 25 years techniques of potato production throughout the world have changed radically. Although developments in western Europe have not been as rapid as in the U.S.A., mechanization has nevertheless reached a more advanced level there than in some other parts of the world, and the changes which have taken place in Great Britain may therefore

Mechanical performance of laminated discs

IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, 2000
Laminated discs are one of the enabling technologies to increase areal density of a recording disc drive to beyond 100 G/in/sup 2/. Enhanced damping characteristics do, however, come at the expense of axial rigidity of the substrates. This work demonstrates that by varying the polymer thickness, damping and axial rigidity of the substrates can be ...
