Alternatives: "theoretically outlined" or "defined in concept".
The isothermal compressor is conceptually defined using the 'infinitesimal approach' in attempt to resolve the ambiguity in its performance framework.
RAMON interactions with a specific wireless access system are conceptually defined by means of parameters that can be measured and controlled, so that the general logic of the module can be posed on top of each system within the constraints and the flexibility provided by the system itself.
Conceptually defined as the ratio of two forces acting, respectively, perpendicular and parallel to an interface between two bodies under relative motion or impending relative motion, this dimensionless quantity turns out to be convenient for depicting the relative ease with which materials slide over one another under particular circumstances.
Cost is the value of a resource, conceptually defined as the value that could be gained by using the resource in an alternative way.
The maximally tolerated dose of CBDCA was conceptually defined as that dose, determined by logistic regression analyses of toxicity data, resulting in a 50% incidence of moderate toxicity (MOD50) or a 5% incidence of severe toxicity (SEV5).
Use of common data elements (CDEs), conceptually defined as variables that are operationalized and measured in identical ways across studies, enables comparison of data across studies in ways that would otherwise be impossible.
We start by conceptually defining two distinct forms of firm-individual collaboration in manufacturing industries: (1) social cloud manufacturing, in which firms outsource manufacturing to individuals, and (2) social platform manufacturing, in which firms provide manufacturing services to individuals.
The purpose of this study is a) to conceptually define the architectural design skills which enable children to design their own educational environment and living areas, b) to identify the higher order thinking processes related to these skills and, c) to discuss the tools, methods and approaches that can be used in measuring these skills.
Though researchers have been trying to conceptually define social enterprises, the legal system and structure of India has not been able to legally define social enterprises, which made this particular research difficult in terms of identifying sample enterprises for the study.
Species are fundamental units in biology, yet conceptually defining them has been a difficult task owing to the complexity and continuity of the speciation process itself and the diversity of reproductive modes among organisms.
The same framework also conceptually defines another type of trait, i.e. 'effect traits'; these are traits that relate to the potential effect of a species on important ecosystem properties or services, for instance water or carbon storage, productivity, nutrient availability, nectar supply to pollinators and people, and local biodiversity.
