The ultimate target is to link standard design tools (steel structure CAD, hull form, hydrostatic curves, floating stability, weight estimation, etc).
The ultimate target is to link standard design tools (steel structure CAD, hull form, hydrostatic curves, floating stability, weight estimation, etc.) with a rational optimization design module and a minimum construction cost (or minimum weight) objective function.
For example, Spearman's correlation [26] is used to measure the stability of two weighting vectors, where the top ranked features are set higher weights.
Regarding stability, when evaluating stability related to weight bearing after total hip arthroplasty, Thien et al. (2007) found that the ABG-I stem was stable both for subsidence and rotation.
A maladaptive shift in body fat distribution does not require fat mass gain; it can occur in the face of weight stability or even weight loss.
The major nonglycemic effect of metformin is either weight stability or modest weight loss, in contrast with many of the other blood glucose lowering medications.
Treatment with metformin is not associated with hypoglycemia, and results in weight stability or moderate weight loss, 25, 27 which is of particular benefit in people with type 2 diabetes who are often overweight.
33 In contrast, when such definitions are tested in the population at risk (i.e., obese children), weight reduction may still affect their stability yet weight maintenance or gain leads to a stable and reproducible definition.
Changes in HRQOL are reported to follow phases of weight loss, weight regain and weight stability after bariatric surgery.
A symmetric weight-bearing distribution between the legs during quiet standing provides optimal biomechanical stability, whereas weight shifts prevent the progressive build-up of fatigue in the legs [ 7].
