A series of experimental test were performed on 70.7 × 70.7 mm cubic specimens with full and partial replacement of CDG.
The analytical equations were validated successfully against available experimental data and conclusions indicate that the simplified model for partial interaction is viable and should be used even for specimens with full interlayer shear capacity.
Although the fSBs can be further increased (up to 72.5%) in specimens with full recrystallization (at higher temperatures), the Σ3ic boundaries would be replaced to some extent by Σ3c (coherent) boundaries which do not contribute directly to optimizing the GBCD.
Testing results on disc specimens with full PVD TiN coating and with the two types of PVD TiN spot-island patterns coated under three bias voltages (i.e.− 30, − 90 and − 180 V) were presented.
Briefly, cylindrical osteochondral specimens with full thickness articular cartilage (diameter = 16 mm) were harvested from human cadaver knees (n = 13, age 25 77 years) in Jyväskylä Central Hospital, Jyväskylä Finland (permission 1781/32/200/01, National Authority of Medicolegal Affairs, Helsinki, Finland).
In specimens with full-thickness tendon tears ("B" and "C"), coronal and sagittal dimensions of the tear were measured using a digital caliper (Traceable ISO 17025 Calibrated, Fisher Scientific, Nepean, ON, Canada) and recorded.
The 35 mm holotype of P. gulosus (figure 2 d) collected in a closing net between 700 1400 m is an early transforming specimen with a full complement of 10 pelvic-fin rays, moderately long jaws and a gut full of copepods.
The mosasaur specimen with a full belly is still being prepared by fossil technicians.
The third specimen was circularized with full length concrete segments and wrapped with two layers of CFRP.
All composite slab specimens are cast with full support on the plain surface concrete flooring in the Composite Testing Laboratory.
