A method for evaluating time-dependent reliability of a structural system subjected to stochastic loads is presented.
This paper presents an improved method for evaluating time-dependent reliability of structures taking these factors into account.
This study compares nested case-control and survival analysis methodologies for evaluating time-dependent exposure.
Real-time qRT-PCR was performed for evaluating time-dependent changes in the expressions of iNOS and COX-2 mRNA, as previously described (46).
Registry-based methods are suitable for evaluating time-trends of occurrence at a given population but for international comparisons they face serious limitations.
One of the first studies using microbial networks developed a mathematical method called a "local similarity metric" for evaluating time-lagged relationships; that is, to study if one organism tends to follow another or tends to decline after another one increases (Ruan et al. 2006).
The heritability was high for all three time points but highest for DS1, the first evaluated time point for which also the highest ratio of genotypic to genotype-by-environment interaction variance was observed (Table 1).
Repeated measures logistic regression was used for binary outcomes to evaluate time-by-treatment interactions.
In a population-based study in the Netherlands, we evaluated time trends for the incidence and treatment of AF.
However, the current empirical formulae for evaluating such time equivalency are mainly derived for protected steel members and may not be applicable for reinforced concrete members.
Headache diaries make it possible to record prospectively the characteristics of every attack and the use of headache calendars is indicated for evaluating the time pattern of headache, identifying aggravating factors, and evaluating the efficacy of preventive treatment.
