The selection costs were tweaked to maximize the quality of the visual mode by raising the weights of the visual join costs and by lowering the weights of the auditory join costs.
Composite structures can lower the weight of an airliner significantly.
The Li-ion batteries would lower the weight of the car by hundreds of pounds, improving handling and mileage.
The system allows for very unique design features including the ability to add honeycomb internal structures to lower the weight of parts.
I found out about six weeks after my arrival that if you lowered the weight of the paper and took the shine off the magazine, you could save a bucket-load of money.
Griefahn et al. (2003) demonstrated that lowering the weight distribution of the air pack on the back could improve firefighters' mobility and work experience.
Fewer, but larger, boilers lowered the weight per unit of heat delivered, as did increased boiler efficiency and consumption of fuel per unit area of heating surface.
Lowering the molecular weight of the dispersing polymer leads to a significant improvement of selectivity.
The intuition we get from [13] is that the higher the variance, the lower the weight of the controls, hence 'cheap' controls and vice versa.
