5 it follows that the experimental value of the critical density amplitude [[delta].sub.CCi] of the specified current pulse [i.sub.p](t) is numerically equal in module to [[delta].sub.CCi] [approximately equal to] [I.sub.mp]/([S.sub.C1] + [S.sub.C2]) [approximately equal to] 64.8 kA/[mm.sup.2].
It's like critical density," said Jeff Baker of Fort Collins, Colorado.
denotes the critical density. As we see [[rho].sub.DE] in Holographic DE model (7) is larger than observed; in fact it even exceeds [[rho].sub.c].
Then in order to find new correlations we shall rely on a) the geometry of existing EFE solutions, and b) one coincidence which is critical density.

Thus, the critical density of microvilli per unit area is given by
In order to address this problem and get the tighter bonds of critical density, we put the exposure-path problem into a 3D uniform lattice and propose a bond percolation-based scheme to calculate the tighter bounds of critical density.
