Methods Yoga practitioners across the US (82 men, 456 women, mean age 44 years) completed standardized questionnaires on the Internet, including full time teachers (N=44) and part time teachers (N=118). Demographics were similar to those of nationally representative samples of yoga practitioners. Dose was calculated as minutes/week of studio, home, and studio + home practice along with studio +...

This chapter presents an analytical study about methodology and methods to build ontologies and controlled vocabularies, compiled by the analysis of a literature about methodologies for building ontologies and controlled vocabularies and the international standards for software engineering. Through theoretical and empirical research it was possible to build a comparative overview which can help...

Optimum design of singly and doubly reinforced beams with uniformly distributed and concentrated load has been done by incorporating actual self weight of beam, parabolic stress block, moment-equilibrium and serviceability constraints besides other constraints. Also, this design expertise has been incorporated into a genetically optimized artificial neural network based on steepest descent, ada...
