(16) At the temperature where phase separation occurs, motion is detected as the solidus domains floating on a liquidus medium.
(17) Trial castings of alloys with a thermal expansion room to solidus temperature ranging from 1.60 to 1.91% showed either a very high accuracy or the possibility of improving the accuracy actually found by modifying the glycerol content of the mixing liquid used.

(19) The pure dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine has two well-defined solidus phases P beta' and L beta' and a liquidus phase L alpha while the pure phosphatidylserine has a broad transition from L beta to L alpha.
(20) There were no significant differences of thermal shrinkage in solidus between the five alloys, and each showed approximately 5vol% shrinkage.
Vinculum
Definition:
(n.) A bond of union; a tie.
(n.) A straight, horizontal mark placed over two or more members of a compound quantity, which are to be subjected to the same operation, as in the expression x2 + y2 - x + y.
(n.) A band or bundle of fibers; a fraenum.
(n.) A commissure uniting the two main tendons in the foot of certain birds.
Example Sentences:
(1) Specialized areas observed in the normal chick (synovial cavity, fibrocartilaginous area, and elastic vinculum) failed to form, as a result of the paralysis of the digit.
(2) Experiments on mongrel rats have revealed that ulceration of mucous membrane of the stomach achieved by vinculum of pylorus is formed only in 47% of animals.
(3) Cell density and DNA analyses indicated a slightly higher cellularity for fibrocartilaginous areas and the region of vinculum insertion.
(4) In group 1, shortening and physical changes were limited to the portion distal to the anchoring of the vinculum and the physical properties were well preserved and remained almost normal.
(5) We conclude that this branch supplies the nerve fibres found within the vinculum.
(6) The operative findings suggest a rare instance of detachment or rupture of the vinculum of the intact superficial flexor tendon.
(7) Two cases are described with full flexion of the proximal interphalangeal joint produced by an intact short vinculum after complete laceration of both superficialis and profundus tendons.
(8) The vinculum breve of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon was found to apply traction to the volar plate on flexion of the distal interphanageal joint.
(9) Although the precise reason for rupture is not known we have speculated that the anomalous superficialis may have given rise to a deficient vinculum longus to the profundus predisposing it to failure.

(11) Distally, vessels arose from the vinculum breve, supplying the terminal twenty millimeters of tendon substance.
(12) Diffusion is the primary nutrient pathway to the flexor tendon in this area, because removing its major vascular attachment (i.e., the vinculum longum) did not effect proline uptake.
