Hypotheses concerning construct validity were confirmed: the short-forms' scores were highest in the oro-facial, lower in the orthodontic and lowest in the paediatric dentistry group; all short-form questionnaires were positively correlated with the ratings of oral health and overall well-being, with the correlation coefficient being higher for the latter.
It is based on Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the overall capture coefficient being the primary design parameter.
It is concluded that the reaction is diffusion controlled, the calculated diffusion coefficient being 6.4 ± 0.6 × 10−10 m2s−1.
The experimental values were in good agreement with predicted values and the model was highly significant, the correlation coefficient being 0.999.
The experimental values were in good agreement with the predicted ones and the model was highly significant, the correlation coefficient being 0.965.
Different situations are investigated, with the pressure loss coefficient being either a constant for the whole structure, or depending on local flow conditions.
The silver sulphide formation was limited by diffusion of HS− in solution, the diffusion coefficient being (11.9 ± 0.5) × 10−10 m2 s−1.
For simple linear regression, the sample correlation coefficient is the square root of the coefficient of determination, with the sign of the correlation coefficient being the same as the sign of b1, the coefficient of x1 in the estimated regression equation.
Cyclic voltammetry technique, performed in the obtained CaCl2 NaCl AmCl3 solution, has allowed a first estimation for the logarithm of the activity coefficient, being equal to logγAm(Al)= -6.7±1 at 700 °C.
In the three-phase coexistence region, the ceramics displayed effectively enhanced piezoelectric activity, with the maximum values of the piezoelectric constant d33, and planar electromechanical coupling coefficient, being 268 pC/N and 0.432 respectively.
The specific feature of this mode is the independence of elution volume on the molecular weight of the polymer (the distribution coefficient being unity for any molecular and pore sizes).
