Sensitivity value

The parameters of the display are established in GRAFINIT, and the number of variables to watch is specified by numplot. There must be a corresponding number of reference values in the plotz array, sensitivity values in the plots array, and labels in the plotl array. As a convenient start, I set plotz equal to the initial values and plots equal to the initial... 

Fig. 16.6 Estimates of device performance in response to nucleic acid binding, (a) FDTD simulation showing the mass sensitivity of the device plotted as a function of the number of functionalized holes. The circles indicate the sensitivity values calculated from the simulations. The solid curve shows a least squares fit using an analytical model for the device sensitivity, which is described below, (b) Plot illustrating the dependence of the shift in resonant wavelength of a resonator on the number of functionalized holes. The blue circles indicate the data obtained from 3D FDTD simulations. The solid curve is a best fit curve of the form a( 1 eTbN) where a and b are arbitrary constants. The values of a and b used here are 6.159 nm and 0.4273, respectively. Reprinted from Ref. 37 with permission. 2008 Optical Society of America...

Snitkoff et al. [75] reported the development of an EIA for the detection of ciprofloxacin in serum, which was sensitive at picogram per milliliter levels of the antibiotic and no cross-reaction with its metabolites was observed. Gobbo et al. [118] recently described the production of PAb for ciprofloxacin with the aim of detecting fluoroquinolones in Brazilian livestock. On the other hand, Bucknall et al. [77] produced antibodies for quinolones and fluoroquinolones with the aim of developing both generic and specific immunoassays. ELISAs for ciprofloxacin, enrofloxacin, flumequine, and nalidixic acid were developed with sensitivity values around 4 pg kg 1 (on both the generic and specific assays) in bovine milk and ovine kidney. 

Around this point any change of the electrolyte concentration would change the Ids current by a certain sensitivity value. Once the noise at QP is measured, then the resolution at QP may be evaluated by... 

Regarding other fluorine positions on the phenyl ring it is observed that ortho-fLuorine atoms give the largest and most sensitive values some reported values<1966,19) are shown in Table XXIII. For the purposes of comparison the data of Nichols<1969,121) shown in Table XXIV is of interest. 

The term sensitivity is used to describe the difference between the RON and MON of a fuel. High-sensitivity fuels have a greater difference between the RON and MON values 12 numbers, for example. Low-sensitivity fuels have RON and MON only a few numbers apart. The sensitivity value represents the effect changes in operating conditions will have on the knock properties of the fuel. 

Sensitivity The difference between the research octane number (RON) and the motor octane number (MON) of a gasoline. Fuels blended with alkylate material have low sensitivity values. 

A steel plate ca 3/8 inch thick is used to cover the cup. The cup for noncorrosive liquids is made from galvanized 1-inch welded steel pipe 3 inches in length with a brass disk 0.0015-inch thick attached at the bottom. For corrosive liquids, the pipe is coated inside with Teflon and the bottom is Teflon tape 0.003-inch thick. It has been found that a Teflon bottom attenuates the booster shock somewhat less than does brass. The sensitivity value for a given liquid explosive is taken as the number of 10 mil cellulose acetate spacer cards required for a gap at which the liquid explosive detonates in 50% of the test shots... 

Resistivities and conductivities are the numerical inverses of one another, unless both are listed, indicating two separate sources for the information. Both are highly temperature sensitive. Values listed here are nominally at room temperature. Consult Section 6.1 for further information on compositional and temperature dependences.

Note Most of the impact sensitivity values recorded in the table, pA559 are averages of those reported in various CLR and GLR re-Dorts of PicArsn. The values which appeared to be doubtful are marked with ( ). It seems that the values obtained for LA with PicArsn app are more reliable then those obtained with BurMines app. This unreaHbiUty is particularly noticeable when a 2 kg wt is used with BM app. As readings for LA s are very small when using the 2 kg wt. it is difficnlt to differentiate between samples because their sensitivities are so similar. It is easier to...

First, it is instructive to examine the performance of a recuperated system that has only one compressor (i.e., remove the IC and C2 from Figure 8.2) and compare this to a simple cycle GT (i.e., also remove the recuperator from the diagram). Consider an isentropic compressor efficiency of 85%, isentropic turbine expander efficiency of 90%, recuperator effectiveness of 88% and no pressure losses. A fixed turbine inlet temperature of 1200 K will be assumed for various pressure ratios. This value is based on an assumed 1000 K SOFC inlet temperature, and a 200 K temperature rise from the SOFC inlet to the turbine inlet. The 200 K temperature increase from the cathode inlet to the turbine inlet is reasonable to assume given a cathode temperature difference across the cell of 150 K, and another 50 K temperature increase from anode exhaust combustion. Thus, 1200 K will be used as a base case for the turbine inlet temperature, and for sensitivity, values of 1100 and 1300 K will also be analyzed. 

Better chromatographic peak performance is obtained with an NMR detection volume of 60 pi, although NMR sensitivity values suffer from the low amount of nuclei in the detection cell. Thus, despite its degraded chromatographic performance the 120 pi flow cell seems to be a good compromise... 

Currently, on-line LC-NMR is just at the starting point for dramatic miniaturization and parallelization. Prototypes of NMR probes with remarkable sensitivity values are currently available in 2002, although the ease of operation of the combined separation-detection system is not guaranteed. Because the design of the current analytical LC-NMR probes is so simple, they can be used in many real-world applications. However, current research areas such as proteomics and metabolomics necessitate the utmost sensitivity, using very small amounts of sample, which can only be achieved by employing capillary probes.

In Fig. 3.99, the comparison between propellants A, G, and H is shown. There is almost no difference between the sensitivity values measured by this method. 

In summary, sensitivity analysis, which has heretofore been considered a very large and costly calculation, has been reduced to the point where it may be done as a matter of routine, and even incorporated into other computations that rely on sensitivity values, as for example non-linear parameter estimation. 

As is shown in Figure 6.4, the ESD values are greatly influenced by the particle size in these tests the sample must be carefully sieved prior to measuring. The finer the powder of a particular sample is, the higher the ESD sensitivity values are. Usually, compounds with ESD 0.1 J are classified as sensitive, those with ESD 0.1 J as insensitive.
