Simple Fully Automatic Testing Method of Seepage Indices for Low-Permeability Materials

Alignment indices: A new, simple method for

Testing simple indices of habitat proximity.

Simple measures of habitat proximity made primarily on the basis of land cover are widely used in the ecological literature to infer habitat connectivity, or the potential for animal movement among resource patches. However, such indices rarely have been tested against observations of animal movement or against more detailed biological models. We developed a priori expectations as to the types ...

Roughness Model for Adhesion Testing of Pharmaceutical Coating Materials

Objective Roughness is the main parameter in interlocking bonding mechanism. Yet there is no model designed to evaluate the effect of surface roughness on adhesion of coating materials in pharmaceutical sciences. Materials and Methods In this study polymethyl metacrylate spherical beads with different sizes were poured into 10 mm mold, then it was pressed by hand screw and finally heated to 141...

Observations and Restrictions for Tracking Indices Measurement in Materials Testing

The testing of various carrier materials for circuit paths on the basis of tracking indices determination is of particular interest for many modern sensing technologies, especially for technologies based on capacitive methods, as well as for the protection of circuitries by means of sealing in insulator material. This paper discusses observations for the determination of the tracking indices fo...

Fully Automatic Testing with Functions as Specifications

Although computer systems penetrate all facets of society, the software running those systems may contain many errors. Producing high quality software appears to be difficult and very expensive. Even determining the quality of software is not easy. Testing is by far the most used way to estimate the quality of software. Testing itself is not easy and time consuming. In order to reduce the costs...
