Modeling the maintenance process of an individual module or component, even if it includes modern condition-based considerations, can be described by a relatively small number of distinct states.
The AR-set involved contains 25,000 rules corresponding to a set of some distinct mobile phones, described by a set of 326 transactions, representing a set of 128 distinct items.
The rheological parameters (plastic viscosity and yield stress) values changed along time in distinct levels described by a quadratic model.
We propose a numerical methodology for the numerical simulation of distinct, interacting physical processes described by a combination of compressible, inert and reactive forms of the Euler equations, multiphase equations and elastoplastic equations.
The enclaves of gays and lesbians, described by a newspaper story as "short-haired women and long-haired men", developed a distinct subculture through the following two decades.
We thus discuss two distinct ILMs whose prevalence and incidence can be described by an ODE model with an established threshold parameter.
In this paper it is shown that the strength degradation of fiber reinforced composites subjected to constant amplitude (CA) fatigue loadings can be described by three distinct functions derived from a recently developed two-parameter residual strength model and associated with the sequence of damage mechanisms.
For low concentrations (50 and 100 mg L−1), it can be said that the diffusion mechanism of the adsorption system is described by two distinct regions instead of a single linear over the whole domain, which shows that the process has more than one step.
When a phenotype cannot be captured by a single characteristic and is better described by many distinct properties, as is the case for the electrophysiological phenotype of SNc dopaminergic neurons, analyzing all parameters in parallel using univariate analysis fails to provide a satisfying picture of the phenotypic variations, especially if the different parameters do not co-vary.
On the other hand, the texture of gneiss is often described by its distinct banding.
