The sieve size sphere method, equivalent sphere method, and equivalent ellipsoid method were used with several combinations of friction coefficients to determine the significance of the particle simulation method on the dynamic aggregate behavior in discrete element method (DEM) simulations.
Results also show a good correlation between energy release rate values evaluated from both compliance method and numerical modelling through integral invariant method and equivalent crack length approach.
Protein concentrations were determined via the Bradford method and equivalent protein amounts were loaded onto a 7.5% acrylamide gel.
Total protein amounts were measured using BCA (Pierce, Rockford, IL) protein detection method and equivalent amounts of protein extracts were fractionated by 10% SDS-PAGE and transferred onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes and blocked with 5% blocking milk solution.
The procedure involves the use of the dynamic stiffness matrix method and equivalent-linear approach, and is built in the modern MATLAB environment to take full advantages of the matrix operations in MATLAB.
Five different time domain simulation methods and two equivalent linearization solutions were used to determine the mean-square response for a single-degree-of-freedom thin plate model.
Most studies reported that D-LBTE solvers were capable of producing comparable accuracy as MC methods and either equivalent or better accuracy than superposition/convolution algorithms [ 22– 35].
The objectives of this paper were to develop methods for multi-trait genomic breeding value prediction, to enable multi-trait genomic selection, and to compare the accuracy of prediction among the different methods and with equivalent single-trait models, based on the results of applications to simulated datasets.
In the present study, in the first part for a spherical vessel with known dimensions and working pressure, two methods of hoop and equivalent stress optimization across the wall thickness are employed to determine the best autofrettage pressure.
With the assumption that the journal and the pads are disturbed with the same frequency, the dynamic coefficients of tilting-pad gas bearing are computed by using the partial derivative method and the equivalent coefficient method.
