Cementation process in the 1740s. In the early modern period, brass, an alloy of copper and zinc, was usually produced by a cementation process in which metallic copper was heated with calamine, a zinc ore, to make calamine brass. Cementation process The cementation process is an obsolete technology for making steel by carburization of iron. Unlike modern steelmaking, it increased the amount of carbon in the iron. It was apparently developed before the 17th century. Derwentcote Steel Furnace, built in 1720, is the earliest surviving example of a cementation furnace. Another example in the UK is the cementation furnace in Doncaster Street,
Average variance extracted heterotrait-monotrait ratio (HTMT). Related coefficients are tau-equivalent reliability (formula_7; traditionally known as "Cronbach's formula_8") and congeneric reliability (formula_9; also known as composite reliability) which can be used to evaluate the reliability of tau-equivalent and congeneric measurement models, respectively. Average variance extracted In statistics (classical test theory), average variance extracted (AVE) is a measure of the amount of variance that is captured by a construct in relation to the amount of variance due to measurement error. The average variance extracted was first proposed by Fornell & Larcker (1981). The average variance extracted can be calculated as follows: Here, formula_2 is the
