ACOS, an in-house finite element program, successfully predicted the buckling pressure of filament-wound composite cylinders with 2 ∼ 23% deviation from the test results.
However, the predicted swelling results of bentonite-sand mixtures with extremely high sand content obtained by the original swelling prediction model have a large deviation from the test results.
The formula predicted test results and model simulated values with reasonable accuracy, regardless of type of auxiliary bonded bars and different values of L p /L. (3) Predictions made by the equation provided by ACI 440.4R-04 significantificant deviations from the test results and model predictions, particularly for the beams reinforced with unbonded CFRP tendons and auxiliary bonded CFRP bars.
The child was allowed to exercise for one trial of approximately five seconds, where any sagittal plane deviations from the test instructions were corrected by the physiotherapist (e.g. forward bent trunk, too little knee flexion, not extending the knee completely or foot movements).
This deviation from the normal testing procedure [ 24], where the dorsal aspect of the radius anchors one arm of the goniometer, was necessary as the wrist support interfered with this positioning when the forearm was supine.
The results showed evidence for continued plasticity until age 80 and above; substantial improvements in performance, comprising one standard deviation from the pre-test to the sixth trial, were observed.
Practice effects in cognitive ability tests are now well described, with a meta-analysis [ 1] estimating that the magnitude of the improvement in test scores from the first test to the first re-sit would be approximately a quarter of the standard deviation from the first test, and a further fifth of a standard deviation to the second re-sit.
For the UMAT we now report quantitatively comparable results, with an estimated increment at the first re-sit of approximately two fifths of a standard deviation from the first test and a further one fifth of a standard deviation at the second re-sit.
To test for a deviation from the neutral expectation, we tested the null hypothesis that the proportion of mutations in a given class (nonsynonymous, truncation, or intergenic) relative to the number of observed synonymous mutations is equal to the predicted ratio calculated using the synonymous mutation rate.
One way to take into account these deviations from the original tests, is to perform Monte Carlo replications for the sequence of cholera cases over time, and thus evaluate significance accounting for the underlying landscape.
