| This topological change is a consequence of the in-plane incompressibility of the lipids, and alters the total Gaussian curvature of the system. |
| Evidence of compressibility of gases and incompressibility of liquids. |
| Eddington has ignored the consequences of van der Waals' equation and the incompressibility of the liquid state. |
| In particular, the high deformations and near incompressibility lead to difficulties with FEA calculations. |
| Other than fluid incompressibility and cyclic averaging, no assumptions are required! |
| Owing to the incompressibility of the fluid, variation in the longitudinal flow must be accompanied by lateral motion of the basilar membrane. |
