The specimen geometry, the measurement procedure and the calculation of the fracture toughness were based on the recommendations of the ASTM standard E-399 [18] or E-1820 [19] depending on the applicability of either small scale yielding or large scale yielding conditions.
However, its applicability depends on the solvability of a set of partial differential equations (PDEs).
In general, the proposed aK statistical canopy reconstruction method appears to be promising to infer the geometrical features of a broad-leaf tree crown from a foliage sub-set, even if its applicability depends on the size of the considered tree, i.e. on the practicability of collecting a leaf data sample.
The biological significance of the test is determined by the epitope specificity of the mAb used in the EB-ELISA, and its broad applicability depends on the conservation of the epitope among H5N1 viruses.
The methodology presented here attempts to solve the endogeneity problem, but its applicability depends on the availability of valid instruments.
Applicability depends on the purpose for which the study is to be used and is less relevant without internal validity.
The case-only design has more power to assess gene-risk factor interactions than the case-control design, but its applicability depends on the independence of the genetic factor and the risk factor in the population.
Different methods for the transfection of primary mammalian cells have been described, including chemical (calcium phosphate precipitation [ 19], lipofection [ 20], nanofection [ 21]) and physical methods (electroporation [ 22], nucleofection [ 23], microinjection [ 24]) as well as viral transduction [ 25], but their applicability depends on the cell type into which the DNA has to be introduced.
Interestingly, the impact of defining an applicability domain depends on the observed area under the receiver operator characteristic curve.
The final selection of sewage treatment technology depends on the source of sewage and its applicability (Fig. 1).
