Their research group noticed a decreasing trend in killing efficacy over the days of the study, under exposure to both UV and visible light.

For the whole process, the ρ ave peak value shows an increasing trend with time except for the third pass.

In particular, the color, whiteness, and translucency differences found were higher after one heating cycle and followed a decreasing trend as the number of heating cycles increased.

On days 4, 7, and 14, an increasing trend with functionalized PEEK compared to non-functionalized PEEK was observed, but this was not significant.

A clear trend is the fabrication of multifunctional coatings that require the combination of different properties in the same material.

There is an increasing trend toward the application of bioactive glasses in different areas of biomedicine, including tissue engineering and oncology.

However, there is a clear trend in more recent studies to generate better results, possibly due to the utilization of more modern scanners.

Hemp stalks’ (fiber) mass can be quite significant and is now considered a low or no value product [ 11 ].

This is a highly significant finding that provides additional clinical evidence that Osseodensification increases clinician confidence and predictability during immediate implant placement.

However, a further increase in the heat treatment temperature resulted in a decreasing trend for both shape recovery and transformation strain. 3.2.

However, the normal force shows a decreasing trend followed by a stable state when the magnetic field strength reaches 740 kA/m.

When the addition of Na 2 SO 4 dosage exceeded 3%, its UCS showed a decreasing trend, probably because the Na 2 SO 4 that did not participate in the reaction remained in the pores of the PCCPB samples and produced sulfate erosion of the hydration products later [ 46 ].

However, T x has a decreasing trend with the increased Mg content.

With the increase in wheel speed, the peak grinding temperature showed a trend of a small increase and then a decrease.

Osteoblasts showed an increasing trend in the scaffolds and pore plates of all groups, and the number of cells reached the highest on day 5 ( Figure 8 A).

Interestingly, with the increase in the refractive index n , the sensitivity and FOM of the three Quasi BICs all illustrated an increasing trend, which verified that the interaction between the medium around the metasurface and the electric field is enhanced with the increase in the refractive index n .

At the same GFS content, with the increase in the specific surface area of the GFS powder, the total hydration heat release and hydration heat release rate showed an increasing trend.

However, the degree of crystallinity showed an increasing trend via a decreasing FWHM.

The Δ E j -a j curve has a Z-shape, with a monotonically decreasing Δ E j -a j curve before the EPB point and a monotonically increasing Δ E j -a j curve after the EPB point until the FS point when it starts to show a decreasing trend.

By calculating the average Ca/Si ratios of the gel phase (see Table 5 ), it was found that with the increase in the slag content, the average Ca/Si exhibited an increasing trend up to 0.7581.

Moreover, the difference between the instantaneous and long-term moduli is quite significant, implying that different penetration efficiency can be obtained by adjusting the insertion speed, i.e., with a higher insertion speed, more efficient penetration can be achieved because the apparent Young’s modulus value should increase with compression speed. 4.

Specifically, as the load increases, the kinetic coefficient of friction of the composite coating shows a decreasing trend, which is the opposite of the behavior in the general metal friction-wear test.

As shown in Figure 9 b, with an increase in filler content, R b showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing; that is, there was an optimal filling ratio of 0.3 wt.% for the f-GO nanosheet in RTV.

When the FC was 0.8–1.0%, the permeability coefficient showed an increasing trend again.

The 5th level vortex density of the riblet surface no longer showed a decreasing trend when the Reynolds number increased to Re3, demonstrating that the drag reduction effect was weakened at this Reynolds number.
