    2.1.8.4.2. Splitting tensile strength: The splitting tests are well known as indirect tests used for determining the tensile strength of concrete. And sometimes it is referred to as split tensile strength of concrete. The split tensile strength is a more reliable technique to evaluate tensile strength of concrete (lower coefficient of variation) compared to other methods. The split tensile strength specimen of 150 mm diameter and 300 mm or 150 x150 mm cube specimen are placed between two plates with

Defence Mechanisms are unconscious mental processes which are employed

  • Information gain analysis

    2207 Words  | 5 Pages

    based on pioneering work by Claude Shannon on information theory, which studied the value or “information content” of messages. Let node N represent or hold the tuples of partition D. The attribute with the highest information gain is chosen as the splitting attribute for node N. This attribute minimizes the information needed to classify the tuples in the resulting partitions and reflects the least randomness or “impurity” in these partitions .Such an approach minimizes the expected number of tests
