The phrase "a decrease in stress" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing the reduction of stress levels in various contexts, such as health, psychology, or lifestyle changes.
Example: "After implementing a regular exercise routine, many individuals experience a decrease in stress and improved mental well-being."
Alternatives: "a reduction in stress" or "a drop in stress levels".
Having friends — or allies — around can cause cortisol levels to drop, indicating a decrease in stress.
With a decrease in stress, there is a transition to a Newtonian viscous deformation regime consistent with Coble grain boundary diffusion creep.
Experiments with PKCδ-overexpressing HiB5 cells demonstrated that phorbol ester, even in the presence of a PKC inhibitor, led to a decrease in stress fibres, indicating an inactivation of RhoA.
The dependence of the stress on the major deposition parameters (ion energy, ion mass (by varying the Ar/N2 ratio) was established, e.g. a decrease in stress was observed with increasing energy, as predicted by the model.
Increased weakening of the bony pillar of the facial skeleton and the use of palatal bone-borne forces leads to a decrease in stress distribution in the midface and to a more parallel transverse expansion of the maxilla.
The structure obtained by post-growth treatment of the CNT array in a microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition process leads to a remarkable increase in array stability, stiffness, elastic recovery and energy absorption capacity and a decrease in stress softening.
Bioabsorbable pins have several advantages including bioresorbable properties obviating the need to remove them, low-profile designs, and a decrease in stress-shielding compared with metal implants.
In our study, the stress management intervention did not change basal or stress-induced cytokine levels, except for a decrease in stress-induced IL-8 levels at follow-up.
The true stress-true strain data shows an increase in modulus, but a decrease in yield stress and subsequent strain hardening, with increasing f.
Plots of strain rate versus applied stress on a logarithmic scale exhibit a sigmoidal relationship, i.e., an increase of stress exponent with a decrease in applied stress.
This is visible as a decrease in the stress at maximal strain (Fig. 2b) and also as a decrease in the slope of the curve at minimum strain (Fig. 2c).
