A quantitative ground motion limit was established by comparing structural responses with the corresponding design requirements.
While a large amount of quantitative ground-based precipitation data is currently available, many limitations remain when striving to provide data on spatial distribution of precipitation.
This is supported by the introduction of a model capable of establishing, on quantitative grounds, how the ordered phase affects the increase in the Young's modulus.
A quite satisfactory agreement, both on qualitative and quantitative grounds, is found between experiments and 3D simulations, on both the growth directions of microstructures and the transition to the degenerate mode.
Our thermodynamic switch model of nuclear architecture, thus, explains on quantitative grounds how well-known cell strategies of upregulation of DNA binding proteins or modification of chromatin structure can dynamically shape the organization of the nucleus.
We conducted an assessment of this database in central California through quantitative ground-based vegetation surveys in 18 polygons, using a modified stratified randomized sampling design, to evaluate the use of GAP for developing BVOC emission inventories.
We find this scenario unlikely but cannot reject it on quantitative grounds.
In other words, a tenant could be (unfairly) fined and evicted based on no quantitative grounds; it would come as a result of the particular mood of that particular officer on that particular day without any warning whatsoever.
Based on publicly-available epidemiological data, we first derive a composite benchmark that will serve as a quantitative ground truth for population-level influenza severity.
The benchmark thus captures multiple facets of severity in composite form and fills a gap in the current literature where quantitative ground truth measures of population-level influenza severity are absent.
Readers may be both surprised and delighted that the MNSQ value can alert those considering a case on quantitative grounds are able to easily differentiate a meaningless (e.g., Figure 1) or a meaningful (e.g., Figure 2) feedback using the KIDMAP, before examining specific items for significance using a Z-score from the patient point of view.
