The phrase "a stepwise change in" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when describing a gradual or incremental change in a particular variable or condition.
Example: "The experiment demonstrated a stepwise change in temperature over the course of the trial."
Alternatives: "an incremental change in" or "a gradual change in".
The DL field is a stepwise change in the geomagnetic field, and the DP field is a bipolar type.
Some results of the model are presented using the example of a stepwise change in load demand.
The Dn and τr values were determined by the photocurrent and photovoltage transients induced by a stepwise change in the laser light intensity controlled with a function generator.
Pore bifurcation and termination cause a stepwise change in the pore number N, as well as the average interpore angle ¯¯¯¯αp as the thickness of the oxide increases.
As already described in Takahashi et al. (2013), claystone sample C2516 exhibited an asymptotic change in μ following instantaneous and decayed responses after a stepwise change in Vaxial (Figure 4).
The difference between the decayed friction levels before and after a stepwise change in Vaxial is largest for the sandstone sample, C2571, while it is the smallest for the siltstone sample, C2652 (Figure 4).
As a way of synthetically summarizing their results, Buchthal and Kaiser fit a separate linear model to each force transient induced by a small stepwise change in muscle length.
Finally, models have assumed a single stepwise change in environment and often neglect density dependence.
On one hand, this approach only models a single stepwise change in population size and thus may not be fitting the data as precisely as the multiparameter dadi approach.
Finally, the functional divergence rates shift for the class C GPCR HD domains show a similar pattern of stepwise change in amino acid replacement resulting in changes in G-protein coupling ability and different ligand recognition.
16 17 For interrupted time series, if re-analysis was required, we used a generalised linear segmented regression analysis to estimate the stepwise change in level and change in trend associated with the intervention.
