An analytic study was conducted on coupled partial differential equations. We formally derived new solitary wave solutions of generalized coupled system of Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) and KdV equations by using modified extended tanh method. The traveling wave solutions for each generalized coupled system of ZK and KdV equations are shown in form of periodic, dark, and bright solitary wave solution...

The results obtained by accurate chemical estimation of the blood and cerebrospinal-fluid (C.S.F.) proteins in 23 cases of severe chronic active rheumatoid arthritis are described in the following paper. Boland and others (1948) reviewed the subject authoritatively, pointing out that very few studies on the C.S.F. proteins in cases of rheumatoid arthritis had been published. They were able to q...

Boland et al. (1) noted that the discovery of microsatellite instability (MSI) (2) in colorectal cancers and its linkage to hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC) in 1993, “. . . opened new chapters in tumor biology and in the clinical management of patients with heightened cancer susceptibility” (1). The scope of this discovery has now been expanded as a unique form of genomic instabilit...

Abstract We present a tri-objective mixed-integer linear programming model of the tactical resource allocation problem with inventories, called generalized (GTRAP). propose specialized criterion space decomposition strategy, in which projected two-dimensional is partitioned and corresponding sub-problems are solved parallel by application quadrant shrinking method (QSM) (Boland Eur J Oper Res 2...

The author contends that sex differentials in childhood mortality in Pakistan are a likely outcome of son preference behavior by parents. Consideration is given to the historical improvement in the female disadvantage in mortality, the neglect of female children, gender and class factors, and son preference and high fertility. Data are from the 1981 Pakistan census and other official surveys....
