Sentence examples for index of stiffness from inspiring English sources

Tan α: the coefficient of inclination for the linear portion of the load deformation curve represents the index of stiffness of the material, expressed in N/mm.

The behavior of each specimen under loading was characterized by determining the following parameters from the load deformation to destruction curve: 1. Tan α: the coefficient of inclination for the linear portion of the load deformation curve represents the index of stiffness of the material, expressed in N/mm.

Also, the signal intensity (an index of stiffness) of the plug cartilage fell to below half that at day 0.

Therefore, we used signal intensity as an index of stiffness, signal duration as an index of surface irregularity, and interval between signals as an index of thickness.

As described above, in theory it is reasonable to regard the intensity of the wave as an index of stiffness of cartilage.

On the basis of studies using other measurements described above, there are limitations in the use of pulse pressure as an index of stiffness.

The effect of MTS or MRTD upon CMJ was studied by means of the correlations between CMJ and the different indices of stiffness and rate of torque development in the whole group (n = 27).

The T- S relationships are presented in Figure 3(a) for the whole group (n = 27) and in Figure 3(b) for groups H, M, and L. The different indices of stiffness are given in Table 2.

The results showed that (i) CMJ was significantly correlated with the indices of torque development; (ii) CMJ was positively correlated with some indices of stiffness; (iii) the ankle plantar flexors MTS at low torque (S0.4) was significantly higher in the best jumpers that presented a torque-stiffness relationship with a plateau.

CAVI, a new index of arterial stiffness, is derived from stiffness parameter β, which is detected by carotid ultrasonic measurement.

According to this basic principle, Li et al. proposed a novel, easy-to-obtain index of arterial stiffness: the ambulatory arterial stiffness index (AASI).
