So, the trend in this group is unlike the trend in group 2, the alkaline earths, where metallic radius increases smoothly from top to bottom of the group.

Gravitational acceleration increases smoothly from the equater to the Geographical pole, due to the oblate shape of the Earth.

The pressure increased smoothly until he was as heavy as he had been just before the drop.

Although the tunneling transmission probability T is generally unknown, at a fixed location T increases smoothly and monotonically with the tip-sample bias in the WKB approximation.

He was falling at twenty-two metres per second, and this rate of descent was smoothly increasing.

However, because the wavefronts are spherical, the phase increases smoothly from the edges of the aperture plane to the center, because of the difference in length of the center point and the edge points from the apex point.

(To "ramp" is to smoothly increase or decrease any function.)

This makes the maintenance of smoothly increasing RPM far harder with turbochargers than with engine-driven superchargers, which apply boost in direct proportion to the engine RPM.

His conclusion was that instead of the optical absorption increasing smoothly, the absorption edge of a thin heterostructure would appear as a series of steps.

Gravitational acceleration increases smoothly from the equator to the poles, due to the oblate shape of the Earth.
