Human skeletal asymmetry. A study of directional and fluctuating asymmetry in assessing health, environmental conditions, and social status in English populations from the 7th to the 19th centuries.
Asymmetry is a useful tool for osteological analysis as it detects disruptions in the developmental stability of osseous structures attributed to environmental and biomechanical environments. The primary aim of this study is to establish a baseline for normal levels of asymmetry in English …

Morphological Representations In Lexical Processing
… are separated. Furthermore, there is a directional asymmetry for the effect: stems in complex words are available for rhyme priming in targets but not primes. This asymmetry invites attention to the time-course of auditory morphological processing and a theoretical perspective in which …

Transport And Optical Properties Of Low-Dimensional Complex Systems
… inter-sphere Coulomb interaction is due to the directional asymmetry of the electrostatic coupling of electrons in excited states which depend on both the angular momentum quantum number L and its projection M on the axis of quantization taken as the probe E-field direction. Such an effect from …

Bulk Ceramic-Based Biologically Inspired Composites: Design, Fabrication and Testing
… however, the presence of grading results in asymmetry. Using mechanical testing we reveal that the organisms' selection of fine side as the loading face is "not the most optimized arrangement for templating". In fact, opting for the coarse side over the fine side as the loading side …

A Study of Craniofacial Asymmetry in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins Using Posteroanterior Radiographs
This project investigated craniofacial asymmetry in a prospective study among monozygotic (identical) versus dizygotic (fraternal) twins and sibling pairs. Posteroanterior radiographs that had previously been collected were used in this study and the zygosity of the twins had previously been …
