present study describes the length-weight (lwr) and length-length (llr) relationships of a freshwater catfish eutropiichthyes vacha hamilton from indus river, sindh, pakistan. a total of 281 specimen of e. vacha were collected from fisherman?s catch from february 2005 to january 2006, are used for this study. the parameters a and b of the length-weight relationship were calculated as w= alb are...

On the circular curve, lateral acceleration affects comfort. On the spiral, both lateral acceleration and jerk affect comfort.  The determination of maximum curving speed on the basis of lateral acceleration only is not critical because the lateral acceleration is proportional to the square of speed whereas jerk is proportional to cubic power of speed. The maximum speed on a curve is thus signi...

this study describes the length-weight and length-length relationships for 28 populations of garra ruffa in different basins of iran, including tigris, karkheh, karun, persis and hormuz. the length-weight relationships from most localities are reported here for the first time. for most populations the b value was not significantly different from 3, indicating an isometric growth, in a few, it w...

While local dynamic stability measures have been successfully used to characterize walking stability, they require long continuous walking data, which may be difficult to obtain from a clinical population. We investigated the amount of walking data necessary to obtain reliable measures of local dynamic stability. Twenty healthy adults walked on a motorized treadmill at their self-selected speed...

A recently proposed method, based on dispersion theory, that allows the scattering length of a hadronic two-body system to be extracted from corresponding final-state interactions is generalized to the situation where the Coulomb interaction is present. The steps required in a concrete practical application are discussed in detail. In addition a thorough examination of the accuracy of the propo...

the ultrasonic measurement of the fetal femur length is a sensitive and precise variable for estimation of fetal growth and development. tlte objective of this study was to predict gestational age in fetuses older ttian twenty-four weeks of gestation by ultrasonic measurement of the femur length. in this study, pregnant mothers were identified by the criteria of normality, such as well-known lm...
