The current study prescribes a coupled experiment-finite element simulation methodology to obtain the uniaxial dynamic mechanical response of soft biomaterials (brain, liver, tendon, fat, etc.). The multiaxial experimental results that arose because of specimen bulging obtained from Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bar testing were rendered to a uniaxial true stress-strain behavior when simulated through iterative optimization of the finite element analysis of the biomaterial.

Reaction Rate

The rate of reaction is the change in the amount of a reactant or product per unit time. Reaction rates are therefore determined by measuring the time dependence of some property that can be related to reactant or product amounts. Rates of reactions that consume or produce gaseous substances, for example, are conveniently determined by measuring changes in volume or pressure. The mathematical representation of the change in the concentration of reactants and products, over time, is the rate...

Source: Laboratories of Gary Lewandowski, Dave Strohmetz, and Natalie Ciarocco—Monmouth University In order to study something scientifically, a researcher needs to determine a way to quantify it. However, psychological constructs can be challenging to measure and quantify. This video examines reliability in the context of content analysis. A recent study in the journal Pediatrics reported that 4-year-olds who watched a fast-paced cartoon had worse performance on cognitive tasks, such as...
FAQs
The percentage comes from comparing the amount retrieved with the amount present at the start, then expressing that comparison as a percentage. Chemists may use mass or concentration for both measurements, but the basis should remain consistent. This calculation converts an observed amount into a directly interpretable measure of how effectively the separation, purification, or processing step preserved the substance.
Losses may occur during transfer, filtration, extraction, crystallization, or other handling stages. Each step can reduce the amount available for the final measurement, so the reported rate reflects the entire workflow rather than only the central separation operation. Examining these stages helps identify where material is being lost and where procedural improvements may have the greatest effect.
The starting amount provides the reference needed to judge the retrieved quantity. Without that comparison, a recovered mass or concentration cannot show how much of the original substance was retained. Using the initial amount as the baseline allows chemists to compare the efficiency of different procedures and recognize whether an apparent result reflects substantial loss during processing.
A recovery result reveals whether a procedure preserves the substance consistently enough for its intended purpose. Low recovery can point to inefficient separation, purification, or handling, while comparison among procedures can show which workflow performs better. This makes recovery measurements useful for method optimization and for evaluating the reliability of results produced during sample preparation or quantitative analysis.
The recovered quantity and the starting quantity can be determined from mass or concentration, depending on the chemical procedure and the material being assessed. The same type of quantity provides the basis for the percentage comparison. Recording these values before and after processing allows the experimenter to quantify losses rather than describing them only qualitatively.
First, establish the amount of substance present before the separation, purification, or processing step. Next, determine the amount retrieved afterward using mass or concentration. Compare the two values and express the relationship as a percentage. Reviewing the result alongside the handling stages can then reveal inefficient operations, such as losses during transfer, filtration, extraction, or crystallization.
These measurements are useful when chemists need to judge sample preparation, optimize a method, assess quantitative analysis, or support quality control. In teaching laboratories, they help connect procedural handling with measurable outcomes. In chemical research, the same approach provides evidence about whether a processing workflow retrieves enough of the original substance to produce dependable experimental results.
A low result indicates that the measured amount retrieved is substantially smaller than the amount present at the beginning. The experiment does not by itself identify one cause, but the source material highlights transfer, filtration, extraction, crystallization, and other handling steps as possible locations for loss. Investigating those stages can guide changes intended to improve procedural efficiency and result reliability.
