Free Vibration of Bi-directional Functionally Graded Material Circular Beams using Shear Deformation Theory employing Logarithmic Function of Radius
… without sacrificing strength is to make them of Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) that are composites with continuously varying material properties in one or more directions. In this thesis, we study free vibrations of FGM circular beams by using a logarithmic shear deformation theory that …

Normal Fault Trace-Length Scaling in a Tectonic Transition Zone in Southern Sedna Planitia, Venus
… verses length plot (CNL) and fit with a power function, exponential function, and logarithmic function to determine which function best describes the trace-length distribution.A power function is the best fit with a scaling exponent of 1.73. This result is compared to previous studies of fault …

Non-Binary Coded Modulation for FMF-Based Coherent Optical Transport Networks
… theory, we know that information capacity is a logarithmic function of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), but a linear function of the number of dimensions. Ideally, we can increase the capacity by increasing the launch power, however, due to the nonlinear characteristics of silica optical fibers that …

Moisture production of growing turkey poults
… declined with age during the grow-out period. A logarithmic function was found to best describe this relationship. 2. The rate of fecal moisture production per bird increased with weight during the grow-out period; an equation was found which satisfactorily described this. 3. The rate of respired …

Fundamental limits of random access in wireless networks
… by considering a weight for each node as a function of its queue size. The larger the weight, the longer the node will hold on to the channel once it starts a transmission. We first show that it is sufficient for weights to behave as logarithmic functions of the queue sizes, divided by an …

System identification and modeling of primary electrosensory afferent response dynamics in the weakly electric fish Apteronotus leptorhynchus
… the overall time course is better described by a logarithmic function of the form A/(log(t) + B). For most units this form successfully fits the entire time course of the response over 5 log units in time, front milliseconds to hundreds of seconds, using just two free parameters. Based on …

Aging processes in complex systems
… time t or, in much more complicated cases, as a logarithmic function of t, governs the dynamics out of equilibrium. In the aging or dynamical scaling regime, these systems are best characterized by two-times quantities, like dynamical correlation and response functions, that transform in a …

CMOS current amplifiers : speed versus nonlinearity
… filter realisations reported. Similarly, two logarithmic amplifier chips are designed and fabricated. The first circuit, implemented with a 1.2 μm BiCMOS-process, uses again a CCII∞. This circuit uses a pn-junction as a logarithmic feedback element. With a CCII∞ the constant gain-bandwidth …

Corrosion Dynamics of Cobalt-Chromium Alloy F-75 Powder
… for an evaluation of the corrosion rate as a function of particle diameter and exposure duration. Two observations were noted from the results. First, cobalt concentration (no chromium was detected) increased as a logarithmic function of time. For the 44, 105, and 420 µm diameter powders, …

Studies of Mixing Processes in Gases and Effects on Combustion and Stability
… <p>The ignition distance is an inverse logarithmic function of the initially required loading of a non-fuel, non-oxidizer radical. The post-ignition flame temperature is not effected by the initial radical concentration.</p> <p>3. Laminar compressible non-reacting mixing of two real …

Elastohydrodynamic lubrication of smooth and rough surfaces
… that the outlet pressures follow a modified logarithmic function and therefore the exit bump in the shape joins the parallel film zone with a finite value of slope, unlike the Greenwood extension of Grubin's theory. From a set of solutions, the behaviour of the pressure spike as a function of …

Towards using seismic anisotropy to interpret ductile deformation in mafic lower crust
… by the texture index, J, shows a positive logarithmic relationship with strain, where LPO intensity saturated by y ~10. The strain-calibrated quantitative petrofabric description of each sample is used to calculate their aggregate elasticity tensors (Cij) via a Voigt-Reuss-Bill average, and …

Investigation of methods for reducing aflatoxin contamination in distillers grains
… concentrations generated by HVACP follows a logarithmic function for both the gas MA and air (R2 adj > 0.98). Ozone generation rate and final ozone was higher when the MA gas was used instead of air, and when the relative humidity was low (5%). Aflatoxin in corn could be degraded by HVACP …
