At the same time, the content of C 2 S and C 3 A shown a decreasing trend, while the amorphous content shown a rising trend.

From Figure 12 , it was noted that, with the increase of sintering temperature (1450~1525 °C), the total heat release presents an increasing trend, but for the sintering time (60~240 min), the total heat release is ranked from high to low as follows: 60 min→120 min→240 min→180 min.

However, the recovered heat rate exhibited a decreasing trend due to a reduction in flue gas residence time.

After the addition of ARGF, the TS of CFIL60 and HD at all curing times improved significantly, and the increase in TS showed a trend of firstly increasing and then decreasing with an increase in the mixing amount.

The copper signal for this layer (in the case of a coating fabricated at the voltage of 450 V) is almost constant in depth, whereas a decreasing trend for Cu is observed for higher voltages (550 V, 650 V).

Thus, the relationships between amplitude parameters and the variables ( p and r ) are significant, in other word, the model is highly significant. 3.2.

It is found that the load sharing ratio of anchor showed an increasing trend but a slower and slower upward trend with the increase of landslide thrust, especially when the load sharing ratio of anchor is more than 20%.

It can be noted from Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 that carbonyl and sulfoxide indices showed a decreasing trend with penetration and ductility and moderate-to-high correlation, respectively.

It may be noted from Figure 7 that no or limited carbonyls are formed after applying artificial aging through RTFO, while sulfoxide shows an increasing trend.

Regardless of the fiber presence in the test beams, the cracking loads have a decreasing trend as the reinforcement ratio increases.

While the steel fiber use has no notable impact on the cracking load for low volume fractions, regardless of fiber type, the cracking load shows an increasing trend for high fiber volume fractions.

Interestingly there is no increase in collagen deposition over 21 days in the GM group but an increasing trend in deposition is seen following the addition of osteocyte secreted factors.

This error may be significant depending on the estimated MC, from 10% to 50% of the average value in the range from 25% to 5% MC.

We found that the index of refraction of Fe-Ni co-doped ZnO thin films assumed an increasing trend and attained a value of 2.20 for 8% Fe-Ni co-doped ZnO thin films.

On the contrary, being able to standardise with composite resin replicas, the results here presented were extremely homogeneous and with a clear trend in the results.

A decreasing trend of protein cluster count, which corresponds to a decrease in the thickness of the lubrication film, is found in all experiments.

Furthermore, MCL in position 1 (3.5 mm) is about 5 to 8 μm lower than in the other two positions (5.5 mm and 7.5 mm) for each shear rate, with a slight trend to higher differences for low shear rates.

The dependence of the lattice parameters, a , b , and c and, consequently, of the unit cell volume V , on the calcination temperature, exhibits a decreasing trend ( Table 1 ).

According to literature, the fresh and hardened bulk density of the mortars containing recycled aggregates show a decreasing trend.

The mechanical tests indicate a clear trend of stiffness and strength improvement along with the increasing share of PC phase in the structure.

Porosities in Table 1 follow an expected trend, decreasing downwards and to the right of the Table.

The overlay with the influence of MnS inclusions might be significant.

The change of these parameters for the different rolling conditions exhibits an increasing trend with respect to the decrease in the number of voids ( Figure 6 ).

The indirect effect of aggregate shape on specimen drying proved to be quite significant.

Lithium borates show an overall negative correlation with connectivity, whereas sodium borates show a negative trend followed by a positive trend with a minimum around 26 mol% Na 2 O.
