There's really been a solidification of voter opinions on the candidates.
It was only at this time that a more general solidification of party positions on improvements issues emerged.
The results are interpreted in terms of the recast observed during the solidification phase of laser percussion drilling.
A tabular lava flow emplaced rapidly on a rock substrate begins to cool from inwards-advancing upper and lower solidification fronts.
The convection enhances the heat transfer from the melt and alters the rate of solidification.
We show that this modification has little effect on the classical theories of solidification, in which heat transfer is solely by conduction.
Previous modelling work on bubble desorption during solidification was developed in analogy to the models for these precipitating systems.
The rate of solidification may also be reduced by increasing the ambient temperature.
The interaction between the solidification and convection that occurs when a melt is cooled from above is investigated in a series of three papers.
