SDR

Special Drawing Rights

A reserve currency created by the International Monetary Fund to reduce the pressure on gold and the U.S. dollar in international transactions. It was established in the late 1960s and is mainly used in the IMF's internal accounting. A few currencies are pegged to the SDR; they derive their value from a currency basket consisting of the U.S. dollar, the Japanese yen, the British pound, and the euro.

Simulations of the reliability index [beta] used operating pressure, crack length and SDR parameter (standard dimension ratio) as a function of 3 levels of [K.sub.IC].

Reliability Index of HDPE Pipe Based on Fracture Toughness

In the following, we will derive the analytical form of the optimum dimension ratio defined as

By setting the partial derivative of the attenuation constant [[alpha].sup.H.sub.m,n] relative to [zeta] as zero, the optimum dimension ratio can be obtained

Considering a special case of [bar.[epsilon].sup.b] = [bar.[epsilon].sup.a] = [bar.[epsilon]], the optimum dimension ratio for the dominant EHi, i mode can be simplified as

Attenuation constants of radio waves in lossy-walled rectangular waveguides

By (8), we selected the dimension ratio of [M.sub.S5] to be 1/4 of that of [M.sub.S6], that is,

The dimension ratio for MS1 ~MS4 can also be derived by (6).

Design a bioamplifier with high CMRR

The PHMSA final rule issued in December allows distribution and transmission pipelines to start using PA-11 of a .40 allowable design factor at operating pressure up to 200 psig (the current limit is 100 psig) if the minimum wall thickness is Standard Dimension Ratio 11 or thicker and the rapid crack propagation characteristics of each new pipe design are measured using accepted industry standard test methods.

PHMSA clears widespread use of PA-11 pipe

The change in standard dimension ratio, which relates pipe wall thickness and outside diameter, sees the heavier SDR11 product replaced by SDR13.6 in both sizes.

Lighter PE pipe improves gas flow

As this was a very complex process water plant, Agru supplied several hundred metres of PVDF piping with standard dimension ratios (SDRs) of 21 and 33, and several hundred bends, stub flanges and tees made entirely from PVDF.

Agru finds special PVDF solution

The study also addresses key trends such as packaging size and dimension ratios, openings that offer a finer drinking experience, resealability for portion control, different pack sizes to meet specific market demands, and colors and graphics to cut through the clutter on store shelves.
