They concentrate on the theory of syllogism, but all elements of Leibniz's theory of logic are present, to the extent that they are regarded as a device for the evaluation of the validity of given theses (ars iudicandi) and for finding new truths on the basis of given truths (ars inveniendi).
A simple device for the evaluation of the actuation load during recovery of a shape memory epoxy foam was used together with an instrumented chamber for the extraction of the recovery speed of a similar sample.
The two-arm goniometer is still the most commonly used, economical and portable device for the evaluation of ROM [ 6], despite acknowledged limitations.
The use of such a device for the evaluation of a BG algorithm even allows us to label the GPI measure as area-under-the-curve method (that incorporates the duration of glycemic deviations), since then a penalty is 'continuously' assigned to each BG (measured at each time instant, e.g., every minute) and since hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic deviations cannot balance each other.
In regard to their first concern, the devices required for the evaluation of EVLWI and PVPI by the thermodilution method are commercially available but are specialized devices, and the procedures are not non-invasive.
As the patriarch of cardiac electrophysiological instrumentation and himself a Horatio Alger type figure, Murray, under the banner of the company he founded, Bloom Associates Ltd., designed, manufactured and distributed cardiac stimulating, recording and monitoring devices used for the evaluation of arrhythmias of the heart.
Moreover, the diagnostic capabilities of MRI are limited in the presence of surgical devices and for the evaluation of the airways and the lungs.
By comparing the modelling results with previous laboratory measurements it is demonstrated that the models produce realistic results and can be used both as tools for proper design of future penetration devices and for the evaluation of soil-mechanical properties from measured penetration data.
The wide availability of NMR spectroscopy and imaging devices based on magnetic resonance are having a significant impact as both investigational devices and for the clinical evaluation of degenerative and metabolic bone disease in laboratory animals and humans.
Recently-designed electrochemical devices allow for the direct evaluation of gas diffusivity in fuel cells.
