Workers tend to "follow the path of least resistance," the researchers found.

Drug developers are like electrons — they follow the path of least resistance.

Research shows that platforms all too often follow the path of least resistance in response to such claims.

Naturally, trust will follow the path of least resistance, and will become gradually decentralized towards the edges of the network.

That means that if we just follow the path of least resistance, we will end up with less diverse organizations, and therefore organizations that are less effective.

Mr. Swamy is convinced that without his attack, Mr. Rajan "would have gotten an extension," because he had supporters and it would have been easy to follow the path of least resistance and allow him to stay in the job.

Or perhaps she simply never was the person she was presented as, but instead a far more flawed figure, who, faced with an intensely difficult balancing act, chose to follow the path of least resistance and shore up majority support while sacrificing a loathed minority.

In nature, water cascading down a mountain will always follow the path of least resistance – the easiest route. In thinking, too, our minds tend to take the path of least resistance – those avenues most familiar to us. So doing, it is difficult to arrive at ideas new to us or to our competitors. SIT encourages an approach to the counter-intuitive path – the path of most resistance.

Others propose that delta switching produced the cyclothems. A modern analogue to describe delta switching would be the Mississippi embayment. As the Mississippi River carries its sediment load into the Gulf of Mexico, the delta lobe can become sediment- choaked and the river will look for a new channel to follow the path of least resistance. Once the influx of terresital sand and silt stops, the area might subside and marine sediments may dominate.

This occurs when the current produces a force on the electrons that is higher than the frictional forces of the collisions between particles in the plasma. In this event, electrons can be rapidly accelerated to relativistic velocities, creating so-called "runaway electrons" in the relativistic runaway electron avalanche. These retain their energy even as the current quench is occurring on the bulk of the plasma. When confinement finally breaks down, these runaway electrons follow the path of least resistance and impact the side of the reactor.

He notices that students follow the path of least resistance when developing their values. For students, he writes, "values are not discovered by reason, and it is fruitless to seek them, to find the truth or the good life." Ironically, when travelling this path without reason, Bloom opines, students still "adopt strong poses and fanatic resolutions." Bloom also criticizes his fellow philosophy professors, especially those involved in ordinary language analysis or logical positivism, for disregarding important "humanizing" ethical and political issues and failing to pique the interest of students.

Bile follows the path of least resistance. For example, in the case of liver laceration repair with a Jackson-Pratt drain placed intra- abdominally, if bile is found in the Jackson-Pratt drain post-operatively, then one can assume that the bile ducts must be obstructed distally. An endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography should be performed with stent placement and sphincterotomy of the sphincter of Oddi. This will allow bile to follow the path of least resistance down the bile ducts and into the duodenum, as opposed to into the peritoneal cavity and the Jackson-Pratt drain.

Common Mode current measurement is carried out to determine the conducted interference or radiated interference that happened in an electrical system due to the high probability of unwanted field emission to the environment. It is also said that most failures are due to common mode currents on cable and the wire assemblies. Note that some common mode current returns through a third point path that could be an adjacent cable, a ground plane or another unexpected return path. Common mode currents in a circuit follow the path of least resistance, and don't necessarily follow the designed schematics.

The rate of heat transfer depends on the thermal conductivity of the material and the temperature difference experienced on either side of the thermal bridge. When a temperature difference is present, heat flow will follow the path of least resistance through the material with the highest thermal conductivity and lowest thermal resistance; this path is a thermal bridge. Thermal bridging describes a situation in a building where there is a direct connection between the outside and inside through one or more elements that possess a higher thermal conductivity than the rest of the envelope of the building.

Laibson has since developed hyperbolic discounting research in many directions, from more advanced theoretical models to computational macroeconomics to conceptual applications. His own applications of his models have focused primarily on retirement savings, with considerable empirical work on 401(k) plans. He has acquired access to a proprietary dataset of the 401(k) information for several dozen companies, which has allowed him to empirically investigate the effects of various 401(k) plan designs on the investment strategies of the plan participants. One important result to come from this research is that plan participants tend to follow the "path of least resistance," showing remarkable responsiveness to defaults and other context effects.

The Storm Shadow missile uses a tandem-charge warhead to penetrate hardened structures Dual charges are also effective at increasing the effectiveness of warheads when used against structures (such as bunkers). Because the explosion of a unitary high explosive charge will follow the path of least resistance, much of the explosive power of a warhead will be lost to the air surrounding the target if detonated outside the structure. This effect can be countered by using heavily constructed gravity bombs with delay fuzes which penetrate the earth, concrete, etc. of the target before exploding—thus containing the explosion inside the structure and significantly increasing its effect.

Since the true center of gravity is at the point in which the blade meets the ice, the skater must also lower his or her arms and free leg toward that point. The force created by the spin is generated outward and upward, or via the path of least resistance, as the speed increases. When skaters allow the force to follow the path of least resistance, however, they will lose some of the force that contributes to rotational speed, so when they increase a spin's speed, they must move their arms and free leg inward and downward. Exactly how this is done varies depending on the type of spin skaters perform.

It was only in recent times with the emergence of apartheid theoreticians that the country definitely deviated from the path of a common nationalism." "Some of the youth are courageous enough to look at everything with a crucially critical mind, and there are those who follow the path of least resistance, that of merely accepting things from their forebears without questioning. If it does not appear to be the case in our country it has at any rate manifested itself in other parts of the world.A quick look at the recent events affecting the students in Berkeley, U.S.A,; in Columbia, U.S.A.; at the Sorbonne, Paris; in Rome; in Prague; and elsewhere will clearly indicate that the youth as represented by the students have become impatient with systems where they are merely on the receiving end; they are beginning to question things in a dynamic and revolutionary miner.
