(Some apply to very small numbers of materials. So far only two sizes account for two thirds of AbIDs). In a sense, using AbIDs is simply a way of conforming to the floor plan and the need to shelve efficiently.
The model has a relatively small number of material constants, most of which have been measured experimentally.
Ms. Tucker, the Justice Department spokeswoman, said those detained fell into three categories: a small number of material witnesses, about 180 people charged with immigration violations and, the largest group, those being held on federal, state or local criminal charges unrelated to the Sept. 11 attacks.
All magnetic materials exhibit magnetostriction to some degree, but giant magnetostriction occurs in a small number of materials containing rare earth elements.
The small number of materials in our study may account for the lack of statistical significance.
First, participants agreed that in addition to complete characterization and testing of a small number of materials, it would be useful to run a larger number of materials through some of the same in vitro and/or shorter in vivo assays to begin interpolating results based on structure or other physicochemical characteristics.
Thus, the EC decided against a risk-based nanodefinition (Auffan et al. 2009) that would have addressed a much smaller number of materials based on other properties in addition to their size (Maynard 2011).
The amplification stage may, however, introduce significant distortions in the measured gene expression levels, especially for genes with small numbers of transcripts in the material under study.
The nature of the problem is both complex and varies from having to consider a large number of available materials and vague information in the early design stages, to a small number of acceptable materials and detailed information in the later design stages.
