“…. Box plot summarizing sintering shrinkage data measured as change in diameter, height or volume for metals (red, N=63;[55,141,181,434,462,497,565]), ceramics (blue, N=644;[6,110,148,156,185,228,239,240,262,286,295,296,316,341,383,384,390,408,414, 415, 566, 573, 574, 586, 590, 608, 619, 622, 623, 637, 638, 647, 652, 655, 656, 660, 665, 666, 674, 683, 688, 690, 691, 700, 712, 714, 720, 731, 737, 738, 745-751]), and polymers (green, N=23; [352, 519, 535, 547, 752]). The mean for each condition is shown as a black diamond, the median as a black bar; outliers are shown as +, and error bars are derived using standard deviation; boxes extend from lower to upper quartile values.…”
