So it's crucial to establish a damage constitutive model under freeze-thaw and loading in order to evaluate the stability of rock engineering in cold regions.
Lap shear tensile and shear fatigue tests were firstly carried out in order to determine mechanical properties and to establish a damage model.
Based on the freeze-thaw damage mechanism of the lightweight aggregate, this study established a damage constitutive model which was able to forecast the freeze-thaw damage of the Aeolian sand lightweight aggregate concrete.
These unique structural characteristics were the means for establishing a DNA damage index, which was shown to be an effective indicator of contaminant-induced damage to liver DNA.
This analysis provided the basis for establishing a DNA damage index (Malins et al. 2004c) using PC9, the most significant PC (p < 0.001).
Logistic regression analysis, using a highly significant PC, was the basis for establishing a DNA damage index (Malins et al. 2004c, 2005) that reflected differences in the unique spectral properties of the liver DNA for each fish.
They will, along with the continuing action by Charlotte Church, be considered with a view to establishing a benchmark for damages for the 800 or so potential victims of News of the World phone-hacking identified so far by the Metropolitan police.
Furthermore, early in the course of the infection, HIV-induced gut damage allows translocation of gastrointestinal microbial products into the systemic circulation, and the resulting immune activation causes further gut damage, establishing a self-perpetuating cycle that can become independent of virus production (Shan and Siliciano, 2014).
But given the dearth of information about the accident, and the silence of all parties involved, establishing a dollar figure for damages is a tricky proposition.
The important steps necessary toward establishing an effective formation damage abatement program and its implementation for a given field are reviewed.
