A performance function is defined in terms of the nominal stress range, inherent defect or starter crack, and appropriate material properties, which are considered random variables.
After the exposure, the UMBA was inspected and shown to have the nominal sensitivity, NETD and no pixel defects.
Crack growth resistance curves have been used to predict the onset of crack arrest from both TT and PTT initial unbridged defects in terms of an initial nominal applied stress intensity range.
An article published recently in The Journal of Genetic Counseling says that the increased risk of birth defects to children born of first cousins are nominal.
When sawing pruned logs, boards with a nominal thickness of 25 mm were removed until the first defects were visible; thereafter 45 mm boards were sawn.
Moreover, by designing the distribution of the defects to inhibit the intrinsic shear fracture, the nominal tensile strength and elongation of the BMG have been enhanced simultaneously.
The exact mass shift is the deviation of the atomic masses from the nominal values, for example, the exact mass of hydrogen is 1.007825, therefore the mass defect of hydrogen is +0.007825 Da = + 7.825 mDa (Table 3).
Salt clusters are well documented artefacts of electrospray ionization MS, recognized by their characteristically high mass defects (for this work simply generalized as the decimal numbers after the nominal mass).
However, in the nanometric cutting, the work piece materials are mainly discrete, anisotropic, and not defect-free, because of the comparable edge radius of cutting tool with the nominal depth of cut.
The slight left- or right-shift of the experimental spectra is due to mass defects that are missing in the library spectra because of peak centroiding to the nearest nominal mass and unit-mass accuracy mass analysis.
