They showed the performance of several local and mid-rang optimization and approximation methods for the reduction of radiated sound power level from a vibrating quadratic plate using the shape modification concept.
Next, data points are selected to run numerical analysis.
After the function models have been fitted to the response data, the functions must be checked for their validity to represent the real behavior of the response functions.
This considerable reduction in the value of maximum LS is mainly caused by a suitable control parameter setting in HDOE algorithm.

When GD is added to mortars, depending on the content added, an increase in the mechanical properties is observed, enabling a reduction in cement consumption [1].
The data acquisition was performed by Arduino UNO.
Data acquisition was performed every minute during the first 25 hours of hydration by the Pundit Link software.
The reduction observed in the crystallographic peak of Portlandite indicated that the addition of this waste delayed the formation of this phase, which corroborates the results of the setting time (Vicat), calorimetry and ultrasonic pulse velocity.

It is obvious that for samples without special additives 2 % MgCl2 solution is a highly aggressive medium, it has a stronger effect on the reduction of strength characteristics.
The data indicate that thin coatings do not affect the strength of anchoring, and the nature of anchoring of composite rods with a polymer binder is not adhesive.
The data shows (table 2) that the samples with the developed type of winding increase the tensile strength and the tensile strength in bending, which means that the composite products will withstand a large load.
However, the periodic profile winding is still better bonded to the concrete, the pull-out force has decreased by 5,9 %, while for other types of surface treatment the reduction has occurred by 11-22 %.

However, the currently policy and regulations governing building energy consumption remain focused on public construction, studies have shown that these legislative efforts are insufficient in reaching national environmental or carbon-reduction targets [1,2].
As most retrofit projects did not conduct an energy audit or have a separate meter for AC systems, this study collected energy consumption data from annual electricity bills, or multiplied floor area by energy use intensity (EUI) (kWh/yr．m2) of building types [5] to calculate AC system energy consumption (AC-EC) which can be as high as 45% of total building energy usage (Table 2).
Fig.1 Comparison of payback periods between total investment and AC systems investment Summary This study estimates that an AC systems retrofit can reduce energy consumption of central AC buildings by 11.75%, which is sufficient to reach the environmental and carbon-reduction targets of Taiwan’s government.

These data would serve as the reference for comparison with the performance of the alloys taken up for the present study.
The data of dW/S with time (t) have been analyzed to determined oxidation parameters.
The extent of reduction in tungsten crystallite size of different composition after milling for 5 h is shown in Table 1.
The reduction of the W crystal size was much more in case of alloys (31.7 and 42.1 nm, respectively) when compare to pure W (49.2 nm).

Regarding the implementation of continuous N2 purge, the process has a dramatic reduction in the transfer of HF from the FOUP polymer to the Cu wafer.
Once purge efficiency has been established, the next question is what kind of gas is better to use and today there are no technical data available about the difference between purge with nitrogen or clean dry air.
Regarding the purge effect, a strong reduction of the HF transfer is also shown, whatever the slot considered.
Figure 2B) and especially at short-time exposure (2h data).

The present period of economic difficulty, which in many situations also affects the real estate market, raises questions about the prospects for planning, as well as equalization, because the demand for construction rights, to which they provide answers, just recently seems to be undergoing a significant reduction.
The economic evaluation and the monetary quantification of goods and services purchased by the public authorities must be substantiated by technical elements and data as objective as possible.
In the economic analysis of urban transformations, with an increase in the developer’s profit there is a reduction in the profit to be gained from the real estate property [8].
In the estimate procedure basic used and known data are: the cost of production CP' and the aliquot X included between 10% to 30% of VM. 10%VM ≤ X ≤ 30%VM (4) Therefore, if we consider the (3) and (4), we can express Up as a function of CP' using the formula: UP = {[1 / (1 - X/100)] - 1} CP' (5) from which we obtain that the developer’s profit or capital gain (Up), appraised as the aliquot of the cost of production is: 11% CP' ≤ UP ≤ 43% CP' (6) The gross profit percentage is not a given elementary direct and easy to find, so it is necessary to determine indirectly by analyzing the variation factors that influence directly and quantitatively.

Discount cash flow method This paper divides poly real estate valuation process into two parts, the first part is the development of the company, in base prediction of 2012, according to poly real estate historical data information, combined with historical development, future development of real estate industry, and the influence of related macroeconomic factors, make reasonable prediction of poly real estate relevant indexes from 2013 to 2017.
According to poly real estate 2008-2008 annual report data, take five years average for the next five years prediction.

The delignification(DL) was calculated as the relative reduction of the kappa number by the bleaching process, DL=(k0-k)/k0 given in percent.
The relative viscosity loss was calculated as the viscosity reduction △η=η0-η divided by the initial viscosity η0 given in percent.
The data seems to suggest that a better delignification can be obtained while the treatment time is longer than 7h.
The data suggests that a better delignification is achieved when the electrolyte recycling rate is 0.5 l/min.

Finally, XRD was used to acquire the rocking curve data to analyze the sample mosaicity.
Table 1 lists the resulting SF density for the KOH procedure, where it is clear that for a lower growth rate there is a reduction in the SF density in agreement with the discussion above regarding SF closure.
Other small discrepancies between the model and the experimental data come from defects (such as dislocations) that are not included in the model.
Meaning, as the sample thickness increases there is an additional reduction in the sample mosaicity, Fig. 3(b).
