data decompression
Last weekend we were all in need of a little decompression.
Finally, we were driven towards coarser granularity by our desire to conceal our decompression algorithms and our associational mechanism.
Near-isothermal decompression is commonly recorded by migmatites in gneiss areas.
Diagnosis of this condition is crucial, as post-infarct swelling may lead to brainstem compression and death,53 and surgical decompression may be required.
Decompression of the left atrium was attempted to relieve pulmonary edema in five patients.
Decompression of the left heart using balloon septostomy under these circumstances can be beneficial.
A cannula was passed from left atrium into the left ventricle to permit decompression of the left heart while on bypass.
Two stages of bubble growth can be distinguished during volcanism events as a function of magma decompression.
Figure 2 displays a steep decompression path, which is consistent with rapid exhumation of eclogite, which is also implied by the presence of the symplectites.
