Although specimens with a linear clearance exhibit better seismic behaviors, a negative clearance is also acceptable as long as the gusset plate does not fracture prior to the braces.
Laboratory equipment costs were assigned a per-patient cost by determining the proportion of daily time used for a batch of 20 specimens, with 3% linear discounting applied over an estimated 10-year equipment lifespan.
The deflection of the test specimens was captured with linear variable differential transformers (LVDT).
Two different models (one analytical and the other numerical) are developed to predict the tensile response of hierarchical brick-and-mortar microstructures with two levels of hierarchies, and to design specimens with a non-linear response.
After being exposed to oxyacetylene ablation torch, the best ZrB2 ZrC coated C/C ZrB2 ZrC SiC specimens with SiCnw/PyC networks possess a linear ablation rate of −0.9 ± 0.5 μm/s and a mass ablation rate of −0.3 ± 0.6 mg/s, while the linear and mass ablation rates of the C/C ZrB2 ZrC SiC specimens for comparison are up to 4.2 ± 1.0 μm/s and 1.2 ± 0.8 mg/s, respectively.
PGMY PCR screening of oropharyngeal cancer specimens showed that no samples were initially positive, although 3 samples proved positive when tested with Linear Array™.
Scores of linear discriminators (LD1) of specimens with D. dentifera mtDNA classified these specimens without error, whereas 19.5% of specimens with D. galeata mtDNA were misallocated as those with D. dentifera mtDNA (fLD1 = 3.636 × CL1 + 6.335 × CL2 - 1.619) [see Additional file 2].
By using specially designed freestanding 8 wt.% Y2O3 stabilized ZrO2 (8Yspecimensmens, a linear relationship is found between the Raman peak shift, Δω, and applied uniaxial compressive stress, σ̅u, i.e., Δω = Πuσ̅u with Πu being the piezo-spectroscopic coefficient.
When explaining variation in concentrations with linear modeling, aspect was statistically significant for all of the 15 elements, height was statistically significant for 12 elements, and specimen mass was significant for 6 elements.
