Reading a book is also kind of better solution when you have no enough money or time to get your own adventure. This is one of the reasons we show the machine interpretation of line drawing images technical drawings maps and diagrams as your friend in spending the time. For more representative collections, this book not only offers it's strategically book resource. It can be a good friend, real...

SUMMARY. Likelihood ratio tests are used to test ordered hypotheses involving the parameters of k independent samples from an exponential family. For the test of constancy of the parameters versus an ordered alternative, the likelihood ratio test statistic is asymptotically distributed as a mixture of k chi-squared distributions under the null hypothesis. This paper derives an asymptotic expans...

The influence of solid-state drawing on the morphology of melt-spun poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) tapes, and the accompanying changes in mechanical and degradation behaviour have been studied. Mechanical properties are found to be strongly dependent on both applied draw ratio and drawing temperature. Moduli of these highly oriented tapes are significantly increased compared to as-extruded tapes at...
