The strength of glass is governed by the condition of its surface which deteriorates progressively as surface flaws accumulate on exposure to weathering action during its service life.
XRPD analysis evidenced that in the presence of tungsten the anatase phase was stable even after calcination at 700 °C, with a progressively larger surface area and smaller particle dimensions with increasing tungsten content.
Raveling: This is the result of traffic abrasive action and is indicated by a progressively damaged surface downward into the pavement layers, such as the binder course, and aggregate loss within the binder course.
The increase of La2O3-dopant above 0.75 mol% decreased progressively the surface molar ratio of Mn/Co with subsequent decrease in the catalytic activity which still measured higher values than that measured for the un-doped catalyst.
Repeat with 320, 400, and 600 grit to get a progressively smoother surface.
It was found that in the absence of PAX, DP-1775 was discontinuously distributed on pyrite surface and progressively passivating the pyrite surface.
Because mountains of the trench-associated subduction type develop and endure adjacent to an ocean on at least one side, they are subject to climatic variability tied to such factors as latitudinal position, orientation with respect to prevailing wind patterns, ocean surface temperatures, and progressively increasing elevations.
This paper presents a novel surface modelling scheme to construct a freeform surface progressively from unorganised curves representing the boundary and interior characteristic curves.
Here we examine several data fitting and interpolation techniques (finite-element interpolation, kriging, and polynomial regression) that can be used to construct a sequence of progressively upgraded response surface approximations based on Progressive Lattice Sampling (PLS) incremental experimental designs.
In the 1850s Thomas J. Rodman of the U.S. Army developed black powder grains so shaped that they provided a progressively greater burning surface as the combustion progressed, with a resulting maximum energy release after the projectile had already begun to travel down the bore of the gun.
It was confirmed by FTIR and XPS that the in situ formed organic fragments on the particle surface as species like (CH3)xSiO2−x/2 (x = 1, 2, 3) which progressively lowered the surface energy of fabricated films.
