A statistics-based expression is derived for the mean values of PR in terms of flaw density and size distribution.
Results showed that, HTPP fibers seem more advantageous compared to PVA fibers in terms of flaw tolerancy with metakaolin based matrices.
Also, we did not conduct any formal quality appraisal for studies of effectiveness and have therefore not examined the evidence in terms of methodological flaws and potential bias due to non-independent evaluations.
By redefining the ordinate of the failure assessment diagram in terms of peak flaw-tip stress the geometry dependence of the failure assessment curves was reduced significantly.
The extraordinary mechanical properties of these and related quasi-binary superhard nanocomposites can be understood in terms of nearly flaw-free strong materials with no need to invoke any new mechanism of strengthening.
All the evidence in the world could not convince the leftists that their policies were harming everyone, including the poor and middle class, because they saw everything in terms of the character flaws of their opponents.
Kr is now defined in terms of the blunt flaw depth, but as if the blunt flaw were a sharp crack, and the effect of a crack at the root of the flaw is then described in terms of a modification to the blunt flaw failure assessment curve.
After all, the mess we find ourselves in is largely due to complexities that few understood, both in terms of the complex, flawed risk models that led to the housing bubble and bust, and the complex mortgage-related derivatives that tied just about every stock investor to the housing crash in one way or another.
In addition to enabling estimates of safe in vivo lifetimes to be made, this approach serves to quantify the effect of flaws in terms of their potential effect on device failure, and as such provides a rational basis for quality control.
The findings have been evaluated in terms of design and implementation flaws, in compliance with the TEC 2007, modeling and acceptance error.
