It can be used to describe a reduction or decrease in physical power, influence, or effectiveness in various contexts, such as health, performance, or resources.
Example: "The athlete experienced a decline in strength after recovering from the injury, which affected his performance in the competition."
Alternatives: "a decrease in power" or "a reduction in force."
At twist densities greater than ∼15 turns/mm, a core-sheath structure developed and was correlated with a decline in strength.
For abduction and opposition measured by RIHM a negative ES or SRM indicates a decline in strength.
In 2PD (mm distance) and the BCTQ subscales (scored 1 to 5) a decrease or negative value indicates an improvement, whereas for all four motor tests a negative value indicates a decline in strength (Newtons).
Follow-up evaluations at month 12 (6 additional months after the primary end-point, and without further treatment), showed a decline in strength by a mean of 11.6% (P < 0.01) indicating that the reversal of disease progression, observed during the first 6 months of therapy, could not be maintained without re-treatment (Fig. 1).
It includes conspicuous changes in learning and memory, which have been linked to the hippocampus, as well as a decline in strength, balance, and coordination, which map to the basal ganglia and cerebellum (Joseph, 1992; Bickford, 1993; McDonald & White, 1994; Devan et al., 1996; Oliveira et al., 1997; Foster, 1999).

Elderly CAD patients participating in a maintenance CR program improve lower-body muscle strength but experience a decline in handgrip strength and unfavourable changes in body composition, irrespective of CR attendance.
In conclusion, elderly CAD patients participating in long-term community-based CR programs improved lower-body muscle strength and experienced a decline in handgrip strength and unfavourable changes in body composition during 1.6-year followup.
At temperatures of over 600 °C, behaviour differed depending on the type of test: (i) in the in vivo trials the high temperature induced pseudo-plastic strain and a decline in mechanical strength that did not necessarily entail specimen failure; (ii) in the post-firing trials, compressive strength rose.
The increase in variation is not simply a result of a decline in union strength in some sectors of the economy; variation has increased within both union and nonunion sectors.
