To score the responses, each is converted to a point value, which is totalled within the domain, and the totals are compared to established screening cut-off points.
In addition, solution times are compared to establish the extent of computational cost savings.
Then, three different configurations are compared to establish the merits of the compliant design: a baseline configuration, a configuration with optimised tapering and the selected compliant configuration.
Performance of such prepared catalysts was compared to established solid acid catalysts, such as HZSM-5, sulfonated and fluorinated γ-Al2O3 and amorphous silica alumina.
Such innovative approach is compared to established methods: (i) single specimen methods, based on the determination of the energy release rate, for the calculation of fracture toughness; (ii) a multi-specimen methodology for the calibration of the geometry factor.
Algorithm performance and VUS predictions were compared to established phylogenetic based mutation prediction algorithms.
Results were compared to established clinicopathological prognostic factors.
To evaluate the phosphopeptide enrichment performance of these matrices, TiO2, ZrO2, and Ti-IMAC hyper-porous magnetic microspheres (MagReSyn) were compared to established solid-bead phospho-affinity reagents (GL Science Titansphere TiO2 and GE Healthcare MagSeph TiO2).
Embryogenic callus conventionally used for transformation was compared to established embryogenic cultures either in liquid medium (four-month-old embryogenic cell suspensions) or on semi-solid medium (four-month-old embryogenic callus cultures).
Trommels with and without baffles were compared to establish linkages between transport and classification performance and trommel geometry.
Nanocapsules and nanoemulsions were compared to establish the importance of the polymeric layer around the nanodroplets by means of a systematic physicochemical characterization of both formulations.
