However, because this index describes homogeneity based on differences in measured impedance, the index value does not take into account the presence of atelectasis or over-distention and, therefore, we believe that this is not an appropriate index.
Descriptive comparisons were made of mean intrapulmonary pO2, intraindividual pO2 standard deviation in order to describe homogeneity of its distribution and for mean decrease rate of pO2 during apnea.
By applying a model supposing potential fluctuations at the grain boundaries we find that the potential barrier height decreases from 0.269 eV down to 0.112 eV and the homogeneity coefficient, which describes the homogeneity of films, decreases from 4.41 to 2.91 with increases in Sn content from 1 at.% up to 7 at.%.
The results demonstrate that the image analysis method can effectively describe the homogeneity of concrete.
A two-sublattice model was used to describe wide homogeneity ranges of the ternary C14 and C15 Laves phases.
In the present study, response surface methodology and computational fluid dynamics were used to develop predictive models that described the homogeneity of the indoor environment of a naturally ventilated livestock building as a function of its geometry and ventilation configuration.
Most real-world networks follow this structure ((n_f =0) and (1le mathrm{LGD}le n-2)) and (mathrm{NEGD}) can be used to describe their homogeneity and help identify critical nodes; If G VV, E) does not have any edge (i.e., (mathrm{LGD}=0)), (mathrm{NEGD}=0); and.
Since normalization of the target genes versus a set of reliable RGs should result in the same fold change variation with minimal fluctuations, Principal Component Analysis [ 24] and agglomerative hierarchical clustering were used to describe the homogeneity degree of target fold change variation as a function of the reference used.
In this case, the evolutionary history of prokaryotic genes is more accurately described by process homogeneity, where the notion of global phylogenetic homogeneity (identical trees) is too strict to describe local phylogenetic similarity between gene trees (fig. 2, lower right: "local homogeneity in history").
Furthermore, antennal dimorphism is often associated with the use of sex pheromones and because no such pheromones are apparent in this genus [13], the sexual homogeneity described here is reasonable.
