The classical scrapie specimen was of brain stem from a field suspect of the animal prion protein gene Prnp ARQ/ARQ genotype, and a brain stem specimen from an unaffected scrapie suspect of the same genotype was also supplied.
Six different types of tests were performed to fracture, including tensile tests on classical dog-bone specimens, flat specimens with cutouts, plane strain grooved specimens, and punch indentation tests on circular blanks.
It is demonstrated that finite element simulation with micromechanical-based phenomenological shear failure model can predict the fracture performance of defect-free bars and thus serves as an alternative to using non-standardised classical fracture mechanics specimens for bars' fracture performance prediction.
Degrees of crystallinity presented in Table 2 are calculated basing on the integral melting enthalpies for each specimen using classical equation [24].
Three different modified designs with a classical design of a specimen shell-tube heat exchanger have been taken into consideration for their thermo-hydraulic performances and the results are compared.
Built in the 1930s, this neo-Classical hall is a specimen of sorts.
He also analyzed many specimens of classical pigments and proved that diamond is a form of carbon.
The latter, for example, learned he could be more persuasive in political debates when he stopped disparaging the opposition as "oily-Gammon, churchgoing specimens" and "classical ignoramuses," according to one post on debating politics civilly.
In the present paper we show that, when slippage occurs in the grips that hold the specimens, the classical analysis of this test leads to an overestimation of the tearing energy, if sample stretches are determined from the grip displacements.
From a total of 47 primary classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) specimens, 44 were evaluable.
We used a rapid molecular conversion assay (protein misfolding cyclic amplification) to test whether brain homogenates from specimens of classical bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), atypical BSE (H-type BSE and L-type BSE), classical scrapie, atypical scrapie, and chronic wasting disease can convert normal human prion protein to the abnormal disease-associated form.
