For C > 6, the significant macro- and micro-cracks developed during w d cycles cause strength reduction.
As a threshold value of crack propagation is approached, new cracking behaviors can abruptly emerge and replace the previous ones, causing strength degradation.
Our example is relevant to a range of geological and engineering problems from ore genesis processes to, on a vastly different time and length scale, chemical reactions causing strength degradation of the host rock, for example, supporting an engineering structure.
"Micro-cracks" are an expected part of the hardening process and do not directly cause strength loss.
Curing time had direct effect on the strength properties of the finished fabric, as high temperature with longer curing time would cause strength loss with increased chances of fabric degradation.
So, the etching could not weakening its structure to cause strength decrease in the H group compared to the group C. Additionally, maybe the precipitates formation in this ceramic type was lower when compared with another ceramics, like feldspathic ceramics.
The large neck and forebody that give the devil its strength also cause this strength to be biased towards the front half of the body; the lopsided, awkward, shuffling gait of the devil is attributed to this.
This causes the strength development over time.
This causes a strength reduction of the retrofitted member.
Although the use of slag has many benefits, its low hydration at early stages causes the strength to be low.
