To prevent hydraulic shear failure, the critical hydraulic gradient must be twice the existing hydraulic gradient where gF = specific weight of the soil particles/of the soil in situ kn kN/m³, gW = specific weight of water, about 10 kN/m³, n = pore volume proportion, Dh = difference in water level between headwater and tail water in m, nS = number of potential lines, DnS = distance between two neighbouring potential lines in m.

Dh = h0 - hu = 1.50 - 0.40 = 1.10 m nS = 27 potential lines

The curves of these arches, which are not semicircular but elongated, are obtained by means of the vanishing scales _mS_, _nS_.

Equipped with sub-nS turn-on time, the 85VDC varistor has the ability to withstand multiple strikes and provides excellent energy and current handling capability while protecting sensitive circuits from over-voltage conditions caused by ESD, lightning, NEMP and inductive switching.

Of those, one half (15) were S faces, one half were nS faces.
-
Recognition memory for highly significant (S) versus less significant (nS) faces.
-
Intermixing faces from the S and nS face classes minimized the possibility that participants could use different response criteria for different face classes (Wixted, 1992; Wixted & Stretch, 2000).
-
An old face was equally likely to be an S face, as shown here, or an nS face.
