To record compression data consistently, CPRcards (manufactured by Laerdal Stavanger, Norway) were used (Fig. 1).
In Figure 3D, it is also clear that the orange gauge placed at the lower edge of the saw-cut (Figure 1) first started to record compression just before the onset of this drop in shear stress, at which point the mode of deformation switches from a compressional to an extensional phase.
An interactive FlashTM (Adobe Systems Inc., USA) user interface was developed, to guide the students through the testing procedure after login, while Skills StationTM software (Laerdal Medical, Norway) automatically recorded compressions and ventilations and their duration ("time on task").
Unlike previous works in digital fault records compression, the performance of the DSMP compression method is evaluated using a protocol based on fault analysis procedures commonly performed by expert engineers.
Pelletizing at 300 MPa (pellet densities: 1.0 1.2 mg/mm3) was undertaken using a single pellet press and the responses recorded were compression work (Wcomp), maximal force to overcome static friction (Fmax), kinetic friction work (Wfric), single pellet dimensions and strength.
A decrease in joint stiffness of approximately 8% was observed for the tensile and reversed loading conditions, while a very limited stiffness degradation of around 2% was recorded under compression.
11671_2013_1570_MOESM1_ESM.mpeg Additional file 1: Supplementary material contains one video that records the compression process of a branched PE nanoparticle.
In both cases, the videos were recorded without compression, at a rate of 30 frames per second, with a resolution of 320 × 240 pixels, and the audio was recorded at 11025 Hz synchronized with the video.
Arteriovenous fistula bleeding was recorded when compression time at the end of the dialysis session was prolonged and was recorded separately.
The wooden blocks as substitutes for strut grafts were impacted using a "pressfit" technique and pressure-sensitive films placed at the interface between the vertebral bone and the graft to record the compression force and the contact area with various stabilization techniques.
