Shrinkage In Ternary Mixes Of Container Media, Silvia Bures, Franklin A. Pokorny, Glenn O. Ware
Conference on Applied Statistics in Agriculture
Based on functional relationships established for binary mixes of container media, a mathematical model is proposed for ternary component mixtures. Shrinkage values are generated for three-component mixtures based on mathematical equations. Empirically observed shrinkage values for corresponding three-component mixtures are determined and used as the basis for assessing the reliability of the proposed mathematical model for characterizing shrinkage in mixtures of container media. . Regression equations were developed and compared for both theoretical and empirical results.
