The phrase "achieve a background" is not commonly used in written English and may be unclear in meaning.
It could be used in contexts where someone is trying to establish or gain a certain level of experience or knowledge in a particular field.
Example: "To succeed in this industry, it is essential to achieve a background in both marketing and technology."
Alternatives: "gain experience" or "build a foundation".
Reduction of metal site vacancies below 1012 cm−3 and dislocation density to 105 cm−2 allow to achieve a background limited performance at 250 K.
The parameter estimates for background levels of pathogens and the secondary transmission parameter were estimated using the method outlined in Supplemental Material: Appendix 5 (online at http://www.ehponline.org/members/2008/10994/suppl.pdf) to achieve a background incidence level of 40 cases per 100,000 people per year.
This chronic peritoneal dialysis rat model allows us to examine also the influence of different substances exemplified by GDPs on changes in renal function and kidney structure in a case of reduced number of nephrons [ 38] and to achieve a background very similar to the clinical setting in patients treated with peritoneal dialysis.
One of the factors necessary to achieve a pleasing background blur is a large image sensor.
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer AMS02 will be equipped with a large transition radiation detector (TRD) to achieve a proton background suppression necessary for dark matter searches.
In the homemade MBE system, we need to cool down the As cell besides closing its valve, to achieve a final background pressure reading lower than 1 × 10−9 Torr.
We decided to distribute the manual on the participants' arrival, in order to achieve a similar background knowledge for every participant and hence to evaluate the effectiveness of the course itself.
Instead of normalizing lane intensities, the authors attempted to achieve a "similar background" by dividing the "distance value" for each peak pair by the average distance of all other peak pairs in the lane.
After sensor implantation, the "run-in" time (i.e., the time required for sensors to achieve a stable background current) was estimated by determining the period over which two consecutive sensor measurements agreed with their respective reference measurements within 20%.
While Gifford et al. reported a reduced run-in time for NO-releasing sensors versus control sensors in rodents, we observed no significant differences in run-in time between NO-releasing sensors and controls, with all four sensor configurations requiring ∼3 6 h to achieve a steady background current.
Practices were sampled to achieve a variety of backgrounds according to location (city, small town and rural), levels of deprivation (identified from Indices of Multiple Deprivation data), and screening uptake rates (from DESP data).
