What is the optimal shape of a city?
If one defines the distance between two points as the Manhattan distance (the sum of the horizontal distance along streets and the vertical distance along avenues) then one can define a city as being optimal if the average distance between pairs of points is a minimum. In this paper a nonlinear differential equation for the boundary curve of such a city is determined. The problem solved here is...
متن کاملWhat is the Real Cause of Glaucoma?
Introduction: The term glaucoma refers to a group of diseases that have a characteristic optic neuropathy with associated visual field loss in common. Intraocular pressure has been considered to be the only causal factor for glaucoma and the only factor that can be manipulated to alter the course of the disease. But considering high intraocular pressure as the only factor responsible for glauco...
متن کاملP-value: What is and what is not
The misinterpretation and misuse of p-value have been increasing for decades. In March 2016, the American Statistical Association released a statement to warn about the use and interpretation of p-value. In this study, we provided a definition and discussion of p-value and emphasized the importance of its accurate interpretation.
متن کامل. A P ] 1 F eb 2 00 7 WHAT IS THE OPTIMAL SHAPE OF AN AXON ?
What is the optimal shape of an axon? Of course, optimality refers to some particular criterion. In this paper, we look at the case of an axon tapered at one end and connected at the other end to a soma. The electrical potential in the fiber follows the classical cable equations as established by W. Rall. We are interested in the shape of the axon which minimizes either the attenuation in time ...
