Observation This entire document is written in Maple 16; its related PDF file will be generated depicting the construction of a 4th-order accurate mimetic divergence, thus matching Appendix J of [3]. However, the interested reader can download this Maple worksheet, make necessary changes, and produce the appropriate tailored results: Please state the required order of accuracy (an even integer ...

Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is an autosomal recessive condition with an incidence of approximately 1 in 150 000 live births with a higher incidence amongst children from consanguineous relationships [1]. It is caused by an enzymatic deficiency with reduction in oxidative decarboxylation of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) (leucine, isoleucine and valine) resulting in elevated levels and t...

Acer (maple) species and their horticultural varieties are world-famous ornamental trees with colored leaves that widely used in natural potted landscaping, as well gardening (Lin et al., 2015). Japan the United States breed most maple varieties, which hybridized or selected from A. palmatum, saccharum, rubrum, japonicum, shirasawanum, buergerianum, morifolium (Gao In recent years, China has be...

Cultivars of red (Acer rubrum L.) and Freeman maple (Acer ×freemanii E. Murray) are popular ornamental plants which are commonly placed in a variety of landscapes. To date, little information quantifi es the capacity to tolerate and recover from drought among cultivars of red and Freeman maple. The objective of this study was to compare the effects of water stress on the physiology of fi ve dif...

nce County, Wisconsin was the first to receive systematic study (Giese et al., 1964; Westing, 1966; Millers et al., Sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) decline has been a problem 1989). Since then, well-documented sugar maple deon the Allegheny Plateau for the last two decades. Previous work found that sugar maple is predisposed to decline by poor nutrition clines have occurred in Massachusetts...

One of the developments that can lead to a wider usage of grids technologies is grid-enabling of computer algebra systems. Several software packages allow nowadays the remote execution of non-proprietary or legacy codes. The common facilities and limitations of those packages are analyzed here. A pattern is establish in the construction of a grid-enabled version of a computer algebra system, ap...

We use the visualization and animation capabilities of Maple throughout our courses. Animations are used in presentations in class from first year onwards. For example, animations for Newton’s method and for fixed point iteration; to illustrate how slicing is used to generate the domain for double integration; to show how the error function (for the collocation method solution of a boundary val...

Sugar maple, Acer saccharum, decline disease is incited by multiple disturbance factors when imbalanced calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and manganese (Mn) act as predisposing stressors. Our objective in this study was to determine whether factors affecting sugar maple health also affect growth as estimated by basal area increment (BAI). We used 76 northern hardwood stands in northern Pennsylvania...
