The use of recycled materials in concrete mixtures creates landfill avoidance and decreases the depletion of virgin raw materials.
For example, Farzin ([1995]) has shown that the technology which decreases the marginal extraction cost and the one which decreases the depletion effects affect differently the paths of the marginal extraction cost, scarcity rent, and resource price using a general cost function.
It was therefore considered desirable to reduce energy consumption and decrease the rate of depletion of world energy reserves and pollution of the environment.
Under forward voltage sweep, these minority charge carriers start moving away from the junction, tending to decrease the width of depletion region with a sudden increase in current (high conduction state or LRS), as shown in Additional file 1: Figure S2.
We envision that the inclusion of more regulatory interactions may further decrease the sensitivity of the depletion time with respect to parameter variations to a physiologically plausible level.
In p-type FETs, positive gate voltage decreases the conductance (depletion) and negative gate voltages increase the conductance (accumulation) from the device.
Reducing the electrode length can decrease the influence of boundary layer depletion, and thereby, improve both the current and power densities.
To decrease the effect of the prolonged depletion region and to form Schottky barrier, Pt nanoparticles have been used [9], and improvement in photocurrent has been shown.
In agreement with this hypothesis, previous studies have demonstrated that experimental (mutant deficient in cardiolipin) and physiological (aging) conditions leading to cardiolipin depletion, markedly decrease the respiratory capacity of mitochondria [33], [34].
Because ligand depletion can decrease the effective cooperativity of transducers in situ and increases the dynamic range, we propose that modifying the concentration of the sensor may be a powerful way to adapt quickly to a new environment and switch from a measurement mode to a detection mode.
