Excerpts

The five groups of different lengths have a clear trend; that was, the energy absorbed by the lattice energy decreases with the increase in length.

It was noted that the physical, mechanical and chloride penetration resistances have generally displayed a decreasing trend, with an increase in the manmade plastic aggregate replacement fractions as compared with reference lightweight concrete.

fiber density did not display a clear trend.

The hardness shows a decreasing trend as thickness increases.

The interaction between flow rate and distance is depicted in Figure 3 e, which showed a slightly significant influence on sphericity.

However, the distribution curve of Mo exhibited a decreasing trend, showing a high and dense peak in α phase, indicating that the distribution of Mo was different between the two phases.

This improvement is quite significant; however, it should be noted that the weight of the composite has also increased significantly, owing to the incorporation of glass fibers.

It can be seen from Figure 4 a that the corrosion weight loss of weld claddings 1, 2, 3 and 4 shows an increasing trend with the increase in corrosion time.

The thermal stability of the thermoplastic sago starch blends shows an increasing trend with the presence of agar.

With the increase in confining pressure, all stress–strain curves also show an increasing trend.

Figure 6 shows the flexural strength of MKPC at different ages, when M:P is the same, the flexural strength shows a decreasing trend with the increase of FA doping.

Under the same age, the flexural strength of MKPC mortar shows an increasing trend with the increase of silica fume admixture.

It can be found that in conditions 2 and 3, when there is periodic wear on one side of the wheel and the rail, the real part of the eigenvalue of the system shows an increasing trend relating to the condition 1.

Electrical conductivity of ZnO morphologies showed an increasing trend with increasing temperature.

have observed a decreasing trend in specular reflection with temperature, leading to a reduction in lattice (phonon) contribution to thermal conductivity [ 57 ].

Densification strain increases with the decrease in relative density and interestingly, there is a clear trend that the bilayer system has a higher densification strain than uniform foam.

While the curve (b) and (c) show a decreasing trend, curve (d) shows an increase in the second plateau stress, and the increase can be explained by a less severe fracture of the thinner GF4 layer and the combination of plateau stress and densification process.

As the heat-treatment time further increases, the microhardness of alloys shows a decreasing trend, where Alloy E only has half the microhardness of Alloy A. 3.3.

TEH has gained much attention in many applications and is an increasing trend for publication [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ].

Both dynamic strength and deformation modulus showed a decreasing trend with the increasing defect strength.

The selected samples 7, 5, 3 attract attention with a clear trend towards a decrease in the volume of the droplet fraction ( Figure 2 b) and the average droplet size.

From the stress–strain curves, the calculated yield strength (0.2% YS) values shown in Figure 8 B described an increasing trend with martensite content.

Confinement effectiveness showed a decreasing trend with rise in temperature.

Therefore, the elimination or degradation of p-NP using a cost-effective and highly efficient method is highly significant for mitigating its adverse impact on the environment.

After 40 F–T cycles of the sample, the total number of pores increased from 20,832 to 24,160 by about 15.98%, and the number of pores in all ranges showed an increasing trend.
