Methods for Measuring Shrinkage [PDF]
Security Journal, 2006 This paper presents findings from research amongst European grocery retailers into their methods for measuring shrinkage. The findings indicate that: there is no dominant method for valuing or stating shrinkage; shrinkage in the supply chain is frequently overlooked; data is essential in pinpointing where and when loss occurs and that many retailers ...

Characterization of shrinkage effects in micro-injection moulding (µ-IM) [PDF]
, 2013 This thesis characterizes the effects on shrinkage in microinjection moulding. The literature review considers four branches of investigation (material properties, processing parameters, mould design and specimen design).

Assessment of restrained shrinkage cracking of concrete through elliptical rings [PDF]
, 2014 This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.An elliptical ring test method is presented to replace the circular ring test method for assessing cracking potential of concrete and other cement-based ...

On Reverse Shrinkage Effects and Shrinkage Overshoot
Psychometrika, 2023 Given a squared Euclidean norm penalty, we examine some less well-known properties of shrinkage estimates. In particular, we highlight that it is possible for some components of the shrinkage estimator to be placed further away from the prior mean than the original estimate.

Pseudorandomness from Shrinkage [PDF]
2012 IEEE 53rd Annual Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science, 2012 One powerful theme in complexity theory and pseudorandomness in the past few decades has been the use of lower bounds to give pseudorandom generators (PRGs). However, the general results using this hardness vs. randomness paradigm suffer from a quantitative loss in parameters, and hence do not give nontrivial implications for models where we don’t know

A methodology for shrinkage measurement in micro-injection moulding [PDF]
, 2013 The aim of this paper is to provide a method for measuring shrinkage in micro injection moulded (μ-IM) parts - no standardised approach being reported as yet in the literature.

Does Bernoulli’s Hypothesis Apply to Differential Shrinkage Problems?
, 2007 Differential shrinkage - shrinkage difference between an old concrete substrate and a new-cast concrete overlay - causes stresses of substantial magnitude in repaired concrete structures.

Scoping the contextual issues that influence shrinkage measurement. [PDF]
, 2006 Measures and measurement systems must reflect the context to which they are applied (Neely, 1999), requiring that the contextual issues relating to retail shrinkage must be identified as a necessary precursor when measuring shrinkage. Without considering

Prediction of the sintering shrinkage of glass-alumina functionally graded materials by a BP artificial neural network [PDF]
Science of Sintering, 2009 The shrinkage of the glass-alumina functionally graded materials (G-A FGMs) as a function of sintering temperature, layers, and the alumina content was predicted by a back propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN).
