The prepared composites were evaluated for physical properties, microstructural analysis and compression strength before and after exposure to elevated temperatures.
The method has the advantage that the coatings are evaluated for the same microstructural conditions as they will be used under, i.e. having the same porosity levels and microstructure.
Finally, the coatings are examined and evaluated for excellence either by microstructural or mechanical evaluation [81].
By means of Filippi's equations and considering different failure criteria (Rankine, von Mises and Beltrami) the fictitious notch radius is evaluated for different notch opening angles as a function of the actual notch radius and the microstructural support length.
Data were evaluated for normality.
Multicontrast analysis was used to assess for microstructural alterations in normal-appearing (NA) tissue and lesions.
Therefore, in order to get a better understanding of advanced ceramics and to further develop them for particular engineering applications, extensive use must be made of the characterization method for evaluating enhanced microstructural, mechanical, electrical, optical, and biomedical properties.
To better understand the association between diabetes and cognitive impairment, we evaluated macro- and microstructural brain MRI measures for the total brain and regions of interest (ROIs) in a group of community-dwelling elders with and without diabetes.
However, this REV was determined for global porosity only, not for evaluating other individual microstructural features, and, therefore, should be revisited.
In addition, few studies have evaluated microstructural measures.
