Excerpts

According to a previous study using the same brand of acetabular liners, an application of compressive strain demonstrated an increasing trend in surface crystallinity [ 25 , 28 ].

The results in Table 5 show that with the increasing rGO content, the average pore size, the median pore size and the most probable pore size appear in a decreasing trend, which indicates the rGO refines the pore structure and enhances its mechanical properties. 3.3.

Although with the less ductile post-peak softening response of pure fibre reinforced to conventional reinforcements, the contribution of the fibres in AAC beams to post crack ductility could be considered significant, as an unreinforced AAC beam would have failed with brittle failure after first crack [ 13 ].

Then, it exhibited a decreasing trend over 72 h of measurement.

The LR, from Figure 4 b, is highly sensitive to the morphology variation of 1L-ST and 2L-ST and shows a decreasing trend with an increasing SH frequency.

Over time, the number of published papers per year shows an increasing trend ( Figure 3 a).

As in the case of II-Zn/Fe (but different compared to I-Zn), the cyclic voltammogram is typical of an alloy that is passivated, the cathodic branch is located below the anodic branch and the distance between them is very large (passivation is quite significant).

Temperature did not affect the alkanes, whereas alcohols showed a decrease with an increasing trend.

Additionally, the 8 M samples showed an increasing trend with the increase of molarity, while the 12 M samples showed a somehow constant change, suggesting that almost all 12 M samples exhibited higher voids and pores.

The total temperature of the supersonic gas jet remains stable near the outlet of the Laval tube and then exhibits an increasing trend.

After analysing the results obtained for the f z = 0.12 mm/tooth, a decreasing trend was observed: an increase in the cutting speed caused a decrease in the height deviation.

Conclusions The results of the studies carried out on samples in dry and saturated states show a clear trend whereby the compressive strength decreases as the result of the water saturation of the tested silicates.

The model showed a trend for a linear decrease in velocity with increasing sample thickness, which is inconsistent with the experimental results ( Figure 8 ).

We can observe that the numerical results have an increasing trend with the increment of the strain rate.

(2) The feature size La and P changed slightly, while R showed an increasing trend and α showed (3) A decreasing trend with the increase of pulse frequency.

Even though a clear trend was found with regard to fatigue behaviour of RAP asphalt mixtures, the thermal cracking showed conflicting results in terms of the Semi-Circular Bending (SCB) test, but high content RAP mixes performed similarly to the corresponding virgin ones by the use of the Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR) test [ 21 ].

As shown in Table 3 , it can be concluded from the high F-ratio value (175.16) that the obtained model is highly significant.

With the increase of soaking time in Na 2 SO 4 solution, T 2 spectrum distribution curves of J5 and J4 move to the right, that is, moving in the direction of the larger pore size, and the signal intensity of larger pores generally shows an increasing trend, which reveals the corrosion of sodium sulfate gradually penetrating into the interior of concrete.

[ 15 ] built a bearing tester in the process of studying the influence of the test parameters on the friction power consumption of high-speed rolling bearings, and they found that the overall friction power consumption of the bearing shows an increasing trend with an increase in the slip rate.

In Figure 3 , the I G / I D ratio shows a decreasing trend when the sonication energy increases and it is associated with the ordered C-C bonds, which causes an inversely proportional effect with the I G / I D ratio.

Comparing FeB and Fe 2 B, the indentation hardness shows a decreasing trend with increasing VEC.

Generally speaking, the method of determination has a quite significant effect on the variability of the ultimate strain values.

Only in warp direction of T-2-21, a decreasing trend is visible, whereby the tests with medium lengths showed comparatively low tensile strengths.

Both heat-up curves show an initial transient phenomenon up to 50 °C before an increasing trend is presented.

As regards Figure 6 c,d, the μ′ curves fluctuate between 1.16 and 1.02, while the μ′′ curves show a decreasing trend from 0.218 to 0.009.
