The phrase "alternating operation" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to processes, systems, or functions that switch between different states or actions.
Example: "The machine employs an alternating operation to enhance efficiency and reduce wear on its components."
Alternatives: "switching function" or "intermittent process".
A cycle life of about 1400 h of alternating operation as cathodes and anodes was determined for the bifunctional electrodes.
Therefore, the alternating operation of the three running conditions would call for materials that are more corrosion resistant.
The semiannually alternating operation of the BTES was simulated according to the planning with inflow temperatures of 75°C in the summer months (April to September) and 20°C in the winter months (October to March).
11 Moreover, this is in agreement with a straining experiment on a (100) oriented Al specimen having a diameter of ≍455 nm, 9 where alternating operation of multiple spiral sources was observed at a strain rate of ≍1 × 10−4 s−1 up to a strain of ≍160%.
The preliminary design included six filter beds with a size of 25 m2 each to allow an alternating operation.
For the split ratios studied, it was found that fast-mode alternating cyclic operation could enlarge the operational domain of the low interaction regime at elevated temperature.
The process deterministically computes the probabilities of random walks through a graph by alternating two operations: expansion, and inflation of the underlying matrix.
Similarly to technical devices, biological constructions are not perfectly reliable in operation, i.e. malfunctions happen alternating with normal operation functions.
They found that the degradation ratio was 28 to 73% after 20 times' alternate operations.
Figure 1 Operation model for a cognitive radio link alternating between operating and recovery (interruption) periods.
The bed was subjected to single-pass kaolin+kerosene suspension and air flows to study liquid–, gas– and alternating liquid gas cyclic operation policies.
