Excerpts

When the magnetic field strength is larger than 250 A/m, the saturation flux density shows a decreasing trend with the increase in temperature.

Absorption and Porosity Test The absorption and porosity graph in Figure 6 shows an increasing trend of absorption and porosity in the mortars after 28 days, in accordance with the increase in the replacement of sand by plastic waste in each formulation.

The addition of wood chips improved the thermal insulation properties of the material and reduced the dry density, and the water absorption rate showed an increasing trend.

It can be seen that the strength of RT specimens exhibited a clear trend of decreasing with the increase of temperature.

These fluctuations were probably caused by the general measurement uncertainty and a clear trend could not be derived.

The five groups of different lengths have a clear trend; that was, the energy absorbed by the lattice energy decreases with the increase in length.

Similarly, a quantitative comparison was also carried out to evaluate the relation between the depth of cut and the maximum depth of subsurface damage, and the result is shown in Figure 11 , where the maximum depth of subsurface damage shows an increasing trend with the increase in the depth of cut.

The results showed that: the replacement of waste glass sand effectively improved the gas permeation resistance of mortar; with the increase of replacement, the gas permeation resistance of mortar roughly showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing.

On average, the studied titanium carbide exhibited a thermal conductivity in the range of 8–10 W/m °C, with a slightly increasing trend as a function of the temperature.

The interaction between flow rate and distance is depicted in Figure 3 e, which showed a slightly significant influence on sphericity.

However, when the curing time reached 28 days, the strength of the samples showed a decreasing trend, from 2.36 MPa (the lowest C/S ratio) to 3.97 MPa (the highest C/S ratio).

The oscillations have an increasing trend along with the broader range due to new phases during the wear process.

It can be seen from Figure 4 a that the corrosion weight loss of weld claddings 1, 2, 3 and 4 shows an increasing trend with the increase in corrosion time.

The thermal stability of the thermoplastic sago starch blends shows an increasing trend with the presence of agar.

A noticeable increase in the ultimate deflection, i.e., the deflection of the post-peak softening branch at which the specimen attains 85% of its load capacity, was only found when ten vertical reinforcing bars were put in place (21% and 25% for pitch reduction from 250 mm up to 150 mm and 50 mm, respectively), while a clear trend was not revealed for six and eight longitudinal rebars [ 51 ].

With the increase in confining pressure, all stress–strain curves also show an increasing trend.

Figure 6 shows the flexural strength of MKPC at different ages, when M:P is the same, the flexural strength shows a decreasing trend with the increase of FA doping.

Under the same age, the flexural strength of MKPC mortar shows an increasing trend with the increase of silica fume admixture.

The temperature dependence of the Seebeck coefficient shows an increasing trend in performance as the applied temperature is increased, as seen in Figure 7 b.

It can be seen from Figure 4 that under various temperature conditions, the instantaneous friction coefficient of intermittent braking generally fluctuated greatly, but during 10 min of operation, the instantaneous friction coefficient under various temperatures showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing.

The decrease in ambient temperature first caused an increasing and then a decreasing trend of wear rate of the brake disc and reached the maximum value (84.5 μg/r) at 0 °C.

As the heat-treatment time further increases, the microhardness of alloys shows a decreasing trend, where Alloy E only has half the microhardness of Alloy A. 3.3.

Both dynamic strength and deformation modulus showed a decreasing trend with the increasing defect strength.

Although there has been a decreasing trend in GHG emissions since 2005 in Europe, the EU 2030 emissions target still requires a strong effort in the way of renovation of the building stock and a drastic change in the paradigms of energy use as well as of construction materials [ 2 ].

In [ 60 ], the applicability of the √area-parameter model was evaluated, showing a clear trend that suggests that the model can describe the fatigue strength for defects with √area ≥ 1000 μm in L-PBF processed 316L steel.
