The relative volumes from each group at each measurement time were tested using the Lilliefors test.
Changes in lactate over time were tested using analysis of variance (ANOVA) on repeated measurements.
NaCl concentration and temperature, as well as extraction time were tested for their effect on the HS-SPME process.
The initial yield stress and its development over shelf time were tested to characterize the rheological properties of the pastes.
The experimental data obtained from the optimization of the contact time were tested with kinetic models to study mechanisms of adsorption and the rate-determining step.
Several types of coground mixtures using a different ratio of M-CPVP/mannitol and processing time were tested to determine the appropriate aggregates for designing the ODTs.
The bleeding, flowability, fresh density, and setting time were tested immediately after mixing in accordance with applicable ASTM Standards (2004): C 232, D 6103, C 138, C 403, respectively.
Different operating conditions in the peroxide stage (pH, peroxide concentration and treatment time), were tested by using response surface methodology based on a Doehlert experimental design, in order to describe their effects and normalize a biobleaching protocol.
Two Plackett Burman designs to study the effect of carbon source, nitrogen source, C/N ratio, iron concentration, magnesium concentration, phenol toxicity, pH, temperature, agitation and sampling time were tested.
Four general parameters: workpiece material, workpiece thickness, wire material, and wire diameter; and four discharge parameters: gap voltage, peak current, pulse-ON time, and pulse-OFF time were tested against specific energy consumption (SEC) and surface quality of the cut.
Further modifications of the algorithms to reduce the running time were tested and it is shown that running time can be reduced by an average of 56percentt without compromising the quality of the results.
