Thus, the input data for residual stress prediction, i.e. shrinkage and modulus of elasticity development, were measured experimentally.
The concrete mixture labelled as C2 was proposed with respect to reduction of residual stresses due to shrinkage.
Therefore, the C2 contains shrinkage reduction admixture and expansion admixture at the dosage of 3 % and 5 % (by weight of cement content) respectively.

Introduction Impact damage is considered the primary cause of in-service delamination in composites giving reductions of the compressive residual strength up to 60% [1-2].
On the other hand, Amaro et al [3] studied the residual flexural strength in carbon-fibre-reinforced epoxy laminates after low velocity impact and observed also a significant reduction on the flexural strength.
The method requires the local strengths (σu,i, i=I, II, III) and the critical strain energies release rates (Gic) as inputted data parameters.

Figure 1-B shows the data in another way.

., Chicago, Illinois, USA) was used for the statistical analysis of the data.
Comparative FTIR and Raman studies demonstrated a notable reduction of oxygen containing moieties, and loss of some monomer structures, such as unsaturation, in polymer thin film samples.
The reduction in chemical functionality was more profound in the case of films deposited at increased RF power levels, due to the increased ionisation and consequent enhanced fragmentation of the terpinen-4-ol molecule.

The ln � versus 1/T plots (�, resistivity; T, temperature) for the data on Fe2VAl become almost linear in the temperature interval 400 – 800 K, and an energy gap of approximately 0.1 eV is deduced from its slope.
A substantial reduction in the resistivity at around room temperature certainly acts in favor of the development of thermoelectric materials.
We conclude that a substantial shift of EF from the center of the pseudogap due to doping is responsible for a large enhancement in the Seebeck coefficient and for a significant reduction in the low-temperature resistivity.

It can be seen from the data that DrGmq<0 in all reactions, so these reactions can occur spontaneously.
However, when V(SO2) gets larger than 0.35m/s, η will be affected by the reduction of flue gas residence time seriously, and its value will reduce.
Fig. 8 shows that η decreases along of the reduction of red mud slurry’s pH value.

Exploiting a laboratory scale rolling equipment, the as-cast structures were cold rolled to about 96% reduction in thickness.
These data will be discussed more exhaustively in a future work.
In comparison to HEAs without alloying element added, the alloys with Zr and Al show a significant reduction of austenitic grain sizes with an higher density of geminates.

AFM data were processed using WSxM software [7].
The intensity of the D peak, low for the 0.2° sample, seems to increase slightly for the 1° sample, and considerably for the 4° sample, possibly due to the reduction of the terraces size leading to a reduction of the graphene domain sizes.

With surrogate models, approximate mathematical functions can be constructed to replace the numerical analysis or experiments through optimization process for reduction of the computing cost.
This model can be used more flexible than the parametric models, and it can construct the high-accuracy approximation model for the high-dimension data.
Gao and Wang [12-13] did some works for reduction of warpage for injection modeled parts based on kriging surrogate model.

Cell and burn up calculations were run on SRAC code system with nuclear data library JENDL.3.2.
However, mixed nitride fuel which has high fuel density and good thermal conductivity give the most significantly reduction of excess reactivity during burn up time.
The strategy of thorium fuel cycle, fuel lattice utilization and additional protactinium give good long-life core with the reduction of excess reactivity during 10 years or more operation time.
