Your studies
Do you want to know the values of the parameters
a, b,
K
for one of the systems you are investigating ?
1. Which type of system is it ? Please, choose:
Creep of metal
Creep of other material
Response to stress
Living cell
Bacteria
Animal
Species
Mechanical device
Electrical device
Chemical reaction
Industrial production unit
Or, is it another type of system ?
2. Please, give detailed information on the system (what kind of metal? cell? device? etc.)
3. Please, select the parameter which would (according to you) best reflect the ageing or evolution of the system as a whole:
Strain
Number of population doublings
Cumulative number of odd cells
Cumulative duration of illnesses
Growth in volume
Cumulative number of failures
Cumulative counts of events
Rate of adrenaline production
Or, is it a resistance-like parameter ?
Or, is it anything else ?
4. Which are the measurements units for the time ?
5. Which are the measurements units for the parameter ?
6. Please, introduce in the next table the successive values of the parameter with regard to the time of measurement (counted from the start of operation of the system and deducing the durations of non-operation)
Important remark:
Three measurements are at least necessary. But to get sufficiently reliable results, we ask you a minimum of 10 measurements distributed over a period of at least 1/3 of the estimated operation life of the system.
