Although reinforcing the foam with domesticated and wild cocoons increased its density from 45 kg/m3 to ∼60 kg/m3 and ∼120 kg/m3 respectively, a marked increase in both absolute and specific compressive properties was also observed.
Therefore, we caution that the evidence of a common effect across populations of African ancestry, although reinforcing a possible association, will require follow-up and replication to confirm them.
U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson left it up to the N.F.L. how to proceed, although she reinforced her order that the lockout was over.
Although this reinforced his connection with the Whig leaders, it gave little scope for his artistic talents, and, on April 12 , 1709 he secured his place in literary history by launching the thrice-weekly essay periodical The Tatler.
Although fibre reinforced polymers exhibit several advantages over traditional materials, their widespread acceptance is being delayed by the lack of appropriate design codes.
Although fiber reinforced polymer composites (FRPs) have proven to be one of the most efficient materials for strengthening existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures against various loading actions, premature debonding remains the major factor limiting their full utilization.
Although, fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) materials are widely used for the strengthening and retrofitting of concrete structures and bridges, the choice of effective FRP-strengthening configuration for special RC members such as stepped beams is still a challenging issue.
Although fiber reinforced polymer composites are increasingly used through the wet layup process for the rehabilitation of deteriorating and understrength concrete structures, there is very little validated information regarding performance over extended time periods.
Although a reinforced glass substrate is more expensive than a conventional one (US$19-21 for the former compared theUS$12-15 formere latter in a 15.6-incompared), toe cost of frame materials and assembly can be redUS$d, the sources said".
