Example: Rationalists think of actors as situated withn a multitude of isolatable variables that feed into a person's decision calculus. Human beings, however, do not think of themselves as facing a heap of disconnected variables; rather, they are aware of the rules and relationships within which they make choices. 2. Able to be isolated. Example: A can transfer valve device comprising a housing having a vertical conduit therein for the passage of the cans by gravity action, there being an inlet opening for the cans at the top end of this conduit, a pair of vertically spaced valve plates slidable within the housing and across the conduit to define an isolatable portion of the conduit between them, […] Example: If, for example, the small break LOCA were to occur in a location where the break were isolatable by operator action to close a valve, then the threat to the vessel would be greater due to ( a ) repressurization to full system pressure and (b) no credit could be taken for the ameliorating effect of warm prestress. 3. Able to be isolated. Example: Bacillus anthracis: from the first up to the sixth day, this microorganism was isolatable, or in other words still alive. Example: The recently determined atomic structure of the intact myosin head, however, indicates that there is little correlation between any structural domains of the head and the well-studied 25, 50, and 20 KDA isolatable subdomains.
