As part of the High Temperature Reactors (HTR) R&D program, a series of irradiation tests, designated as Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor (AGR), have been defined to support development and qualification of fuel design, fabrication process, and fuel performance under normal operation and accident conditions.
A mock test designated to mimic real challenges also confirmed the better performance of HSVR.
The purpose of this third irradiation test, designated as AGR-3/4, is to measure fission product release and transport by irradiating compacts containing a small fraction of fuel particles that are intentionally designed to fail (DTF) early in the irradiation test.
The main objective of this study was to develop, derive, and estimate the phase angle parameter from resilient modulus (Mr) test, designated ϕMr, at various temperatures and frequencies for eleven types of asphalt mixtures: two conventional dense-graded (DGAC), four polymer-modified gap-graded (P-Gap), four asphalt rubber gap-graded (AR-Gap), and one asphalt rubber open-graded (AR-Open) mix.
Development of the "big and cumbersome" Arrow 1 then ceased and further research continued with the "smaller, faster and more lethal" Arrow 2. Two successful tests (designated IIT 21 and IIT 22) of the steering, control and cruising systems were conducted without target missiles on July 30 , 1995and February 20 , 1996
A newly developed diagnostic test designated as the interferon-gamma release assay (IGRA) uses a principle that MTB-specific antigens provoke immune reaction in the whole blood after TB infection [8].
Serum/medium was given 3 hrs prior to the test designated as "fresh medium".
When performing cyclic testing designated to resemble a clinical environment after fracture fixation, the loading plane should be considered [ 28].
Tests designated as moderate are those with greater complexity and level of error than waived tests, but are not so complex as to require full laboratory certification [ 20, 21].
