Data presented include the load versus deflection curves, load versus strain curves, strength capacity, displacement ductility indices and moment versus curvature curves.
Strain gauges and LVDTs were connected to a data logger from which the readings were captured by a computer at every load intervals until failure of the beam occurred.
Fig. 8: Strength capacity of the specimens Displacement Ductility Ductility may be defined as the ability to undergo deformations without a substantial reduction in the flexural capacity of the member.

Color density data is required during the proofing process and for quality control of printed results[14].As the ink film thickness increases, the optical density also increases, indicating that more ink results in a darker and richer print.
In the data, the hue error decreases from 28.91% at a lower ink volume (0.8 microns) to 22.93% at 3.2 microns, suggesting an improvement in color accuracy with increased ink volume.
The CIE Lab* values suggest a reduction in lightness and a shift towards a more neutral and intense blue color with thicker ink layers.
Similarly, grayness increases with greater ink thickness, suggesting a reduction in color vibrancy.
Higher grayness was observed at greater ink thicknesses, indicating a reduction in color vibrancy for both substrates.

To contribute to the reduction of the use of costly Portland cement in concretes and mortars, and at the same time to reduce the CO2 greenhouse gases emission associated with the production of Portland cement, two types of wood ashes namely, Eucalyptus ash and Avocado ash as a substitute of cement in the production of concretes were investigated in the present study.
The control (C0) specimens have the compressive strengths greater than those substituted by wood ashes namely, avocado ash and eucalyptus ash and the compressive strength decreases with the increase of the percentage of wood ash as partial replacement of cement into the concrete, this is due to the reduction of the quantity of cement in the concrete and the ash content which does not work in favour of mechanical resistance (Turan et al., 2001).

In this theory, we can know the “sustainable” developmental potential of human race in one area by obtain the ED data.
It should be that our development is “endurance” when the ED data is “ecological gain” but not “ecological deficit”.
According to the ED data, there were still 12 provinces and cities of China are “ecological surplus” in 1980.
It is just like different tunes sung with equal skill with the modern composite wall which is especially designed for energy saving and noise reduction.

The unknown parameters in LuGre model are main depend on the contact feature of the interfaces, and usually can be identified from measured data.
Simulation data was acquired at two force levels for random excitations and two frequencies for sine excitations as shown in Table.1.
By the statistical analysis of this simulation data, the vibration amplitude was restrained effectively by friction force.
Through investigation, we arrive at the following conclusions: (1) Friction can be used for vibration reduction, which absorbing is good and vibration damping is rapid

The 2507 SDSS is not recommended for applications which require long exposures above 300°C because of the risk of a reduction in toughness.
The magnetometer is completely computer controlled, the measurement and the excitation are performed by a National Instruments data acquisition card (DAQ) and a PC.
The data acquisition, processing and the control of the set-up were done by a LabView VI.

The former refers to the rate of speed with two positive data， the later is one positive data and one negative rate.
In this study，relative decoupling refers to a situation when the growth rates of CO2 emissions, and industrial output increase simultaneously but the later data is slower than the growth rate of carbon emissions.
In Fig.4,it indicates that in 1998, the growth rate of Shanghai industrial CO2 emissions is negative, while the industrial sector economic growth is still increased, which lead to an absolute reduction.

For the noisy signal which contain Gaussian white noise, 99.74% noise are reduction if the threshold value is set as the next formula: , where t is the threshold value and is Gaussian white noise standard deviation, furthermore, a suitable constant multiplied by could be the best threshold.
MSE(mean square error) function presents the difference between the real signal and the estimation data.
By testing on the noisy signals which including wavelet noise test data, we can prove the accuracy and effective of the genetic adaptive algorithm.
The test data of experiment 2 is ‘bumps’; the experiment 3 using ‘heavy sine’ signal.

Including preparation activities, training intermittent time, recovery training, relaxation method, and pre competition training and other rational assessment, can also include the assessment weight reduction or gain weight training and other non-improved special skills training methods and means
The conceptual structure is a common basis of all kinds of data model, the data model is more than the machine-independent, more abstract, and thus more stable.
Logical Structure Design Results of logical database design is not unique, in order to further improve the performance of database application system, should also be appropriate to modify the structure of the data model to improve query speed [6,7].

The utility industry across the world is trying to address numerous challenges that occur in exsiting electrical grid, including generation diversification, optimal deployment of expensive assets, demand response, energy conservation, and reduction of the industry’s overall carbon footprint.
The control center uses computer-based monitoring and control system, called Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system.
They also connect local Data Aggregation Nodes (DANs) to the core network through the backhaul network.
The smart meter collects data from smart devices and invokes certain actions depending on the information it retrieves from the grid.
