Sentence examples for assumed strength from inspiring English sources
The main drawback of this methodology now, is that the pushover curve is drawn on the basis that the element stiffnesses are assumed strength independent, equal to a constant proportion of the gross section stiffness, regardless of the reinforcement content.
The assumed strength of social influence s might also be considered large (e.g. s = 5, or for prestige bias cs = 20) compared to estimates that publicised suicide stories increase the national suicide rate by just 2.5% [10] or that only 2 4% of suicides show any spatiotemporal clustering [5].
Thus, the assumed strength of selection might not be unrealistically large [ 70].
Having said that, I do have to agree with what Amy said, "Chinese parents assume strength, not fragility," and it is generally a good practice.
Many an indulgent, progressive parent would be likely to pause and reflect on the philosophy (as opposed to the execution of it) that Chua reiterates in various ways — that Chinese parents "assume strength, not fragility" in their children, and therefore demand more of them, setting higher standards, assuming they can handle more pressure in the name of high performance, or at least good behavior.
Regardless of the assumed mantle strength, we infer a relatively weak megathrust fault with an effective friction coefficient of ∼0 to 0.2 at seismogenic depths.
Calculated temperatures in the centers of the bands are up to 2300°C (using an assumed shear strength of 2 GPa and linear thermal softening), which explain the bonding.
Pushover analysis results compare favourably with computationally expensive 2D nonlinear heterogeneous FE analyses, but also confirm that the ultimate lateral resistance of masonry walls is very sensitive to the assumed spandrel strength if an equivalent frame model is used.
The assumed ionic strength of the P. pastoris cytosol was 0.15 M [ 46], while the pH was fixed to 7.2, based on experimental measurements of P. pastoris cytosol (D. Mattanovich, personal communication).
Engineers and practitioners therefore assume that strength and durability are interchangeable properties, i.e. the stronger the material, the more durable.
