(16) In the first, a rotating cylinder is seen, though no variation in optical flow exists across the apparent cylinder.
(17) After curing of the cement in a environment of 37 degrees C the resulting cement rod was released from the cylinder and the diameter of the rod was measured at 37 degrees C. The influence of the "foaming effect" on the transverse dimensions of the rods was studied by curing the cement at 37 degrees C and 2 atm air pressure in a high-pressure-vessel.
(18) A procedure is described to construct a varifocal lens, after that described by Wood in 1905, to produce lenses known as 'non-homogeneous cylinders' or 'pseudo-lenses'.

Endodermis
Definition:
(n.) A layer of cells forming a kind of cuticle inside of the proper cortical layer, or surrounding an individual fibrovascular bundle.
Example Sentences:
