Excerpts

First, the Vickers hardness of the composites shows a decreasing trend with the increase in SiC content, dropping from 34.8 to 29.9 GPa when the amount of additional SiC reaches 10 wt% ( Figure 2 a).

An analysis of the effect of the carbonization temperature on pore size reveals a significant trend: the number of micropores increases with higher carbonization temperatures.

There is an evident trend of increasing strain at the break with the increase in the time of exposure to the aqueous environment.

The shear strength, cohesion, and internal friction angle of vegetation concrete all showed a decreasing trend with increasing foaming agent content.

Figure 7 e illustrates that C 0 exhibits a decreasing trend with frequency in the 2–18 GHz band, accompanied by considerable fluctuations.

However, the monoclinic phase fraction was lowest at 2 mol% CeO 2 doping, and it showed an increasing trend as the doping concentration increased beyond that.

Authors seek effective thermal conductivity coefficients for practically relevant structures, assuming random distributions of the filler [ 11 , 12 , 13 ], or analyze thermal conductivity of new practically significant materials [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ].

There are pads made of SBR granules with similar properties to PU-based samples, although it is impossible to find a clear trend in the translation of the two materials.

Of note, 2.5 billion m 2 of paper-based surfaces are produced globally each year, with an increasing trend [ 3 ].

Table 1 presents the carbon residue rate after thermal decomposition, revealing an increasing trend in carbon residue content with the addition of flame-retardant treatments: A0 < A1 < A2 < A6.

There exists a significant trend to increase the cross-sectional area of the columns for the successive configurations meeting the optimization conditions.

Affected by the randomness of discharge position and surface time-varying, the removal amount and the maximum surface temperature during continuous discharge are time-varying and show a decreasing trend.

At RT, the strength of both as-cast and peak-aged samples rises with increasing Al and Ca; however, the corresponding ductility exhibits a decreasing trend.

Alloy composition and microstructure also determine material strength, and for many materials, especially steels, there is a notable trend of increased SCC susceptibility with higher strength levels [ 95 , 96 ].

The overall model is highly significant, with an F-value of 104.12 and a p -value of less than 0.0001, indicating that the model effectively explains a significant portion of the variability in MTL.

Given the adverse effects of noise, the urgent need to reduce noise levels in homes, classrooms, open-plan offices, workplaces, and public facilities is highly significant and desirable today.

As the tempering temperature increased, the elongation of the transverse specimen showed an increasing trend, while the elongation of the longitudinal specimen first increasing and then decreasing.

The elongation of the longitudinally stretched specimen showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the increase in tempering temperature.

However, a positive trend in the average quality index and a negative trend in the standard deviation are observed as the refinement of the mesh increases.

The calculated activation energy exhibited a decreasing trend with increasing TiO 2 content, consistent with the characteristics of doubly ionized oxygen vacancies, suggesting the involvement of identical charge carriers in the relaxation and conduction mechanisms.

As illustrated in Figure 15 , there was a strong correlation between electrical conductivity and motor efficiency, with motor efficiency exhibiting an increasing trend similar to that of electrical conductivity.

As the input data increase in ELM analyses, the accuracy of the predictions will also improve, which is highly significant.

All mixes exhibited an increasing trend in healing efficiency as the healing period progressed, with the level of healing improving as the HC mixing ratio increased.

Fundamental Properties Figure 6 shows the relationship between the HC mixing ratio and slump loss, where a decreasing trend in slump was observed with the addition of HCs.

However, in c-Si(110) and a-Si, where the volume change is pronounced, the Si-Si coordination number shows a decreasing trend and the Si-Li coordination number increases.
