The overall lot sample was, therefore, a proportionate, stratified sample [26], [27].
Although these methods are capable of dealing with strong nonlinearity, a lot of samples are required to deal with it as a matter of course.
According to the tail distribution of the strain data induced by vehicle loads, four homothetic distributions are chosen as the parent distributions, from which lots of random samples are generated by the Monte Carlo method.
For some seed lots, in which viability was lost before 45 d, sampling was discontinued earlier; for a few seed lots, later samples were at longer intervals due to an unexpectedly slow rate of viability loss.
A lot of these samples are of Indian and Chinese instruments – shopworn stand-ins for 'the exotic' that he makes sound genuinely strange by half-breaking them".
One lot of samples were tested on a "pin-on-disc" type wear machine under dry sliding conditions, at applied load between 3.5 and 11.5 × 10−1 MPa and 12.5 and 16.9 m/s relative speed in braking point at constant temperature.
The other lot of samples were tested on an inertial test stand according to a methodology simulating the real conditions of dry friction, at a contact pressure of 2.5 3 MPa, at 300 1200 rpm.
In some studies, a lot of samples were taken covering a large number of different manures up to 380 samples in Harms [25] and in other studies only individual manures were sampled after medication.
To minimize possible processing and chip lot effects, samples were assigned to processing batches of seven to nine pairs, and batches had similar distributions of age, race, and date of enrollment.
Their study was conducted in naturally regenerated lots, sample trees were 120 years old and microsatellites were used for paternity analysis.
Three hospitals (1 medium-large and two large) and three CHCs were chosen randomly "by lots", and data samples were collected from the local health bureaux.
