sphericality

The SEM images indicate that glutaraldehyde-crosslinking and starch blending enhance sphericality of the microparticle shape.

Such a position was readily available in the turbulent first three decades of the twentieth century, when the question of what Ezra Pound referred to as the sphericality of the planet" (56) became more and more urgent due to rapid technological change and military conflict.

"Kylie would score amazingly well on sphericality and symmetry," the Daily star quoted Holmes as saying.

The highlights of Part are Chapters 8 and 9, which clearly explain the sphericality restriction, the relationship between design (X) and precision (X'X) matrices, restricted least squares, and the Gauss Markov Theorem.

If the sphericality assumption is correct but the probability distribution, while symmetric and unimodal, is not normal, then the Gauss-Markov properties still hold; moreover, the hypothesis tests, although not strictly valid, are likely to be robust and should not produce seriously misleading results [e.g., Malinvaud, 1966, p.

In presenting my six-point summary of the civil rights legacy, the principle of sphericality has turned out to be the most controversial.
