The phrase "as a function of the total" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts involving mathematics, statistics, or analysis where one variable is dependent on the total of another variable.
Example: "The results will vary as a function of the total number of participants in the study."
Alternatives: "in relation to the total" or "depending on the total".
And what we want, the question we ask is, what is the partial pressure of A as a function of the total pressure?
Phase diagrams at room temperature for the G20T-duplex in the bottom panel, and for the full-paired F-duplex in the top panel, as a function of the total DNA concentration.
(c) Richness, S, measured as the number of distinct OTUs and (d) number of reads of the most abundant OTUs as a function of the total number of reads.
The focus is on isotropic elastodamaging (softening) materials, where the damage parameter is expressed as a function of the total strain.
Once again the device parameters were studied as a function of the total absorber layer thickness and the relative thicknesses of the absorber layers.
Bioavailability of C12LAS was investigated in streams as a function of the total suspended solid load in the water column driven by local weather and watershed patterns.
Furthermore, the model was used to evaluate the variation of the average annual runoff from green roofs as a function of the total available storage and vegetation type.
This paper analyzes the effectiveness of a nonlocal integral-type formulation of a constitutive law such as microplane model M4 in which the yield limits soften as a function of the total strain for prediction of fracture propagation.
The kinetics of the dissolution and passivation of Fe has been studied in neutral benzoic acid/sodium benzoate buffer solution as a function of the total benzoate buffer concentration and pH.
We attribute the increase in Ag transport as a function of the total Ag concentration to a network of pores that form during deposition due to Ag segregation into nanometer-size pockets.
The kinetics of the anodic dissolution and passivation of Fe have been studied in neutral and slightly acidic acetic acid/sodium acetate buffer solution as a function of the total acetate buffer concentration and pH.
