Excerpts

As can be seen from the table, for the four samples, σ x values were larger in the lower left corner of the sample, and the stress showed a decreasing trend upward and right, which was due to the scanning start position being located in the left lower corner of the fabricating plane, following the scanning sequence from bottom to top, the left lower part of the produced part presents a larger temperature gradient field, and then it tends to be in a state of dynamic equilibrium.

A significant trend can be found that the device performance increased at first, but then degraded as the Nd:IZO thickness increased from 3 to 10 nm.

(3) With the increase of TiH 2 content from 5% up to 30%, the material’s impact sensitivity shows a decreasing trend.

As is shown in Table 3 , the yield strength of the materials showed an increasing trend as the content of TiH 2 increased, and both the hardening modulus and the failure strain were firstly increased and then decreased, indicating that the amount of TiH 2 had a significant influence on the materials’ mechanical properties.

For higher temperatures, oxidation may be significant [ 38 ], and this is why the oven baking process was conducted up to 350 °C, and not in higher temperatures.

(3) The change character of S parameter in candidate steels with increasing irradiation doses was not obvious as the Fe + showed a trend towards a clear saturation.

Therefore, as the ratio of TEOS increased, the stability of silica/MMT showed a decreasing trend.

The thermal expansion coefficient α is both theoretically and practically significant and is essential for the thermodynamic equation of state.

All four of these plots show a clear trend: the d F / d T and d μ / d T sensitivities increased progressively as the average temperature and absolute humidity fell, and with good consistency between the results for the two sections of the G5 string (green and lime).

Furthermore, musicians are finely-tuned to small details of the behaviour of their instruments, so that quite subtle aspects of the string behaviour may be significant.

Furthermore, the presence of the PPPh leads to some improvement of the properties, especially with concern to the elastic modulus and the elongation at break, where such enhancements are quite significant.

The total number as well as the size of pores presented a decreasing trend.

We observed an increasing trend for the density and compressive strength of the mortar as the collection depth of the sample increased.

αHH significantly hardens at an early age, and after reaching maximum strength, the strength shows minimal change or a decreasing trend; this has been verified in previous studies [ 15 , 16 ].

As a result, the hole profile becomes increasingly steeper, and the hole taper shows a decreasing trend with respect to the laser power within the selected range.

Such an increasing trend is not a rare phenomenon, such as the Pb 0.94 La 0.04 [(Zr 0.7 Sn 0.3 ) 0.9 Ti 0.1 ]O 3 ceramics prepared by the solid-state reaction method reported by Xu et al., where apparent exponential elevation of the energy-storage density is observed above 60 kV/cm [ 19 ].

For the studied lithotypes, there is a clear trend observed within all three test methods to evaluate the efficiency.

However, a clear trend and prediction for higher concentrations like 25 wt% can be drawn. 2.2.2.

The introduction of boric anhydride creates a moderately significant impact on the strength of the engineered cementitious composites.

However, due to the functions of internal autoclaving, secondary hydration of unhydrated clinkers and SCMs, and the pozzolanic effect, the post-fire strength of concrete may have an increasing trend before 300 °C [ 43 , 44 , 45 ], especially for the concrete made with siliceous aggregates [ 43 ].

Even though the bending strengths were comparable in all three attempts, considering standard deviations, there were partially significant differences regarding laminate thickness and maximum bending force ( Figure 3 d).

However, at higher compositions, x = 0.08 and 0.10, a decreasing trend has been observed, which shows the reluctance in the mixing of V ions.

As shown in Table 2 , with an increasing LDH dose, the TTI of asphalt binders shows an increasing trend, whereas the THR gradually decreases.

Accordingly, the SD of charge quantity also showed an increasing trend as surface roughness increased.

E values and H values for the secondary cell wall ( Figure 8 ) both showed an increasing trend from the inner to the outer parts of the wood disc, but a significant reduction was shown from S2 to S1.
