The used failure criterion assumed that the specimen failed when the assessed static strength ( σ SK ) exceeded the existing combined stress.
He also noted that his species had more vertebrae than Marsh's in the back and neck, but proposed that Marsh was mistaken in assuming that the annectens specimens were complete in those regions.
Probabilistic sensitivity analyses with 10,000 repetitions were conducted to evaluate the false-positive rate among pregnant women assuming that the proportion of specimens from persons of unknown pregnancy status to be categorized as pregnant was binomially distributed [15].
In the non-parametric calculation first, the top 10% of results were discarded assuming that those specimens came from individuals with unusually high trace element exposures.
Assuming that the dipole term of the specimen's magnetization dominates the output signal, the magnetization is given by the magnitude of the in-plane component (m_h), its angle (phi), and the magnitude of the axial component (m_z) in a cylindrical coordinate frame (Kono et al. 1991).
The maximum ΔKC,applied value of series 1 laminate is 36.75 ( mathrm{MPa}sqrt{mathrm{m}} ) which too is higher than the maximum ΔKC,al,∗ of 18.43 ( mathrm{MPa}sqrt{mathrm{m}} ) in plain specimens, justifiably assuming that the ΔKP data of the plain specimens do not change significantly under fatigue cycles with peak stress value of 75 MPa instead of 97.45 MPa.
Assuming that the fracture of a smooth specimen is the consequence of a virtual intrinsic defect whose the size can be easily estimated, the stretch ratio at break can be therefore computed for any thermal ageing condition.
Assuming that the donors of the knee specimens tested in this study subjected their ACL femoral entheses to different loading histories, one might expect the variations in entheseal surface shape to be greater between individuals than bilaterally within an individual, which is indeed what we found.
Assuming that the age of the smallest Archaeopteryx specimens approximates when these animals first took flight across the Solnhofen lagoons, we can deduce that this milestone would have occurred no later than about 18 weeks (Figure 9).
The solution applies for any orthotropic material whose principal directions are defined by the crack direction, assuming that the crack grows along the symmetry plane of the specimen.
