The provision of mechanical anchors in the hogging strengthening prevented the CFRP debonding mode of failure, slightly improved the strength gain, and significantly improved the slab ductility.
Afterwards one journalist asked "why are you so happy to be a failure?", slightly set aback by the bluntness, I responded "I don't think we're failures, we just saved ourselves months of rewardless pain and effort". 1) If you are trying something, you will fail at some point – it's not a reality to achieve a 100% success rate – and that's not even the challenge.
Eight of the young women had experienced condom failures; slightly higher than the 27 36% failure rates reported in recent quantitative studies (Crosby, Yarber, Sanders, & Graham, 2005; Crosby et al., 2005; Hatherall et al., 2005; Sanders, Graham, Yarber, & Crosby, 2003).
The breakage was mainly due to simple tensile failure with slightly shear failure at one platen edge (Aulton & Taylor, 2013; Bubb, 2011).
The mechanical results demonstrated that PFR enhanced failure strain slightly accompanied by a decrease in tensile strength.
Moreover, during the latter transition period (i.e., after a change of the requested throughput), the RT user's short-term throughput failure probabilities slightly increases (maximum value %) and then starts dropping again, due to algorithms adaptation to the new request (Figure 12).
Conversely, the fracture toughness in mode I (opening failure) was slightly lower than the reference by approximately 20%, and the results were interpreted from the complex micromechanisms of failure arising from the changes in polymorphism and molecular weight of the PVDF.
When adjusted for the effect of age, sex and parasite density at enrolment, the risk of treatment failure was slightly higher in the symptomatic children compared to the asymptomatic infants but this was not statistically significant (odds ratio 1.2; 95% CI 0.55, 2.9; p = 0.6).
Patients with liver failure were slightly younger than the other patients (58 ± 11 vs. 64 ± 15 years; P < 0.001).
10 51 The definitions of organ failure varied slightly between trials, but in most included various clinical signs of hypoperfusion as, for example, oliguria, hypotension, and increased lactate levels.
23 EXAMINE and SAVOR-TIMI 53 which tested the DPP-4 inhibitors, alogliptin and saxagliptin, did not increase or decrease the rate of ischaemic events although the rate of hospitalisation for heart failure was slightly increased in SAVOR-TIMI 53.
