The through-thickness shear behavior was determined using a short beam with V-notches under shear.
The isothermal crystallization process was performed at various temperatures and investigated by DSC, FT-IR and WAXS, while the mechanical behavior was determined using a compression test.
The strain hardening behavior was determined using tensile testing at room temperature.
The proportion of those willing to participate was determined based on a Yes or No response, and the association with demographic characteristics, knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions concerning HIV vaccine studies, social support, and sexual behavior was determined using binary logistic regression models as described above (yielding odds ratios (OR), p-values and 95% confidence intervals).
Suicidal behavior was determined using four questions from the screening-section of the K-SADS-PL diagnostic interview: item-1 suicidal thoughts ("1" = none, "2" = occasional, "3" = frequent), item-2 suicide attempts and their seriousness ("1" = none, "2" = ambivalent, "3" = serious) and item-3 suicide attempts and their lethality ("1" = none, "2" = not life-threatening, "3" = life-threatening).
The optimum conditions and most significant process parameters affecting the hydrodynamic behavior were determined using an analysis of variance model.
Eleven regions for the first case and at least 25 regions for the second case of qualitatively different bifurcation behavior were determined using only conditions for isola and hystersis variety.
The bodyweight of the rats was measured, and alterations in physiological behavior were determined using sucrose preference test (SPTs) and open field tests (OFTs).
The reported pattern of self-care behavior adopted was determined using the Health Behaviors Inventory HBII) [ 52].
The anodic behavior of these objects was determined using potentiodynamic (PD) polarization curves.
