The polycarboxylate superplasticizer was used in mortar and concrete, of which the solid ratio was 40% and water reduction rate was 37%.
Since the density and specific surface area of rGFRP (1.71 g/cm3 and 1.59 g/cm3) was lower than silica sand (2.65 g/cm3), large substitution of sand with rGFRP resulted significant reduction of mortars’ density.
In addition, the difference among all the detection points for each sample set was amplified, in term of the increased standard deviation of each data set, as illustrated in Fig. 11.

The reduction in TPC amount in UCOL is much pronounced compared to COL30 and COL50.
The results point out that the reduction in the antioxidant activity of olive oil sample kept in uncoated glass tubes occur more rapidly compared to those kept in coated tubes.
Cabo, Fourier transform infrared spectra data versus peroxide and anisidine values to determine oxidative stability of edible oils, Food Chem. 77 (2002) 503-510

The final height reduction was 70%.
The raw data of stress-strain was obtained in the process of thermal compression test.
Meanwhile, the formed dense and continuous oxide scales could inhibit further oxidation, which resulted in the reduction of inward diffusion of oxygen molecules and outward diffusion of alloying elements [30].

As the reduction in free volume with PCL (with a lower WVTR) and reduction in the interconnection between the free volumes/voids, which resulted from the interactions of the polymer chain of PBS-PCL through hydrogen bonding, analyzed by FTIR studies[5], the PBS-PCL blends have low WVTR.
However, data on biodegradation of PHB and PHB-PCL blends in compost medium at ambient temperature was unavailable in the literature review.

To identify the components for which it is necessary to predict spares, there are several data and criteria.
- The simple exponential smoothing gives importance to recent data in a forecast.
The weight decreases exponentially with respect to the age data.
Step3: At each time to non-zero value, give a demand value randomly selected in all non-zero demands data.
Using feedback data, the model parameters are defined by maximum likelihood estimations.

Simulations of delamination under fatigue loading are performed and results are successfully compared with reported experimental data on HTA/6376C unidirectional material.
Under fatigue loading conditions, this problem becomes more severe and can cause dramatic reduction of the load carrying capability of the laminated structures.

The monotonic tests were conducted at supersolvus temperatures of 1066 or 1177°C and strain rates of 0.005 or 0.1 s-1 to a height reduction between 2:1 and 4:1; following compression, each sample was either water quenched immediately or allowed to undergo metadynamic recrystallization (MDRX) /grain growth for times between 30 s and 30 min.
In order to simulate production cogging practices, interrupted tests were performed at identical test temperatures and strain rates (to a total reduction of 3:1) using dwell times of 20, 30, or 60 s between imposed strain increments of 0.15.
Using this single set of coefficients, the average error in the predicted recrystallized fraction in both the dynamic and metadynamic regimes of wrought material (in comparison to the data of Shen, et al. [9]) was ~7.3 pct.
Microstructure developed in a double-cone sample of Waspaloy ingot material upset to a 2:1 reduction at 1066°C, 0.1 s-1 and then held at temperature for 30 min. prior to water quenching.

If the porosity field measured after 3.5 PV injected is considered, it is clear that the porosity reduction, corresponding to a decrease of the pore volume due to particle deposition, occurs mainly in the core entrance while it is not modified at the core exit.
The hydrodynamic thickness d of the deposited layer can be estimated by assuming that the porous medium is well represented by a bundle of capillary tubes of the same radius as [21]: δ=Rp(1-Rk-14) (2) where Rp is capillary tube radius calculated from Rp=8kf (3) where k is the permeability and f is the porosity of the sample and Rk= kikd= ∆Pi∆Pd (4) is the permeability reduction where the subscripts i and d indicate initial and damaged value after colloidal deposition that are determined through measurement of pressure drop on the initial and damaged porous medium, DPi and DPd, respectively.
Moreover, from the velocity fields, it can be noted that the particle displacement corresponds, as expected, to a combination of rotation and translation (data not presented here).

The most vital role of a DVR is to mitigate voltage unbalance and voltage variation, except it can likewise carry out the tasks such as compensate voltage swells and sags, fault current limitation, harmonics elimination and reduction of voltage transients [12, 15, 16, 17, 18].
The numerical data were taken from the Table 1.

Finally, the metabolic activity of microorganisms such as photosynthesis or sulfate reduction increases the system alkalinity via OH- production and sulfate ion replacement by bicarbonate ion, thereby increasing the saturation state of the solution and provoking carbonate mineral precipitation.
The third and deepest black layer is the zone of heterotrophic sulfate reduction and anaerobic degradation of organic matter.
Nonetheless, in light of new data this last species does not include Rhodovulum sp.
The photosynthetic process involves the reduction of CO2 to carbohydrates and removal of electrons from H2O, which results in the release of O2 (the process is known as oxygenic photosynthesis).
