This paper deals with free vibration analysis of continuously graded fiber reinforced (CGFR) truncated conical shell based on third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT), by developing special power-law distributions. The orthotropic (CGFR) truncated conical shell are clamped and simply supported at the both ends. It is assumed to have a smooth variation of fibers volume fraction in the thickne...

Fragile histidine triad (FHIT) serves a critical function as a tumor suppressor that inhibits p53 degradation by mouse double minute 2 (MDM2). The functional domains of FHIT involved in tumor inhibition was interpreted. In-silico screening data were employed to construct truncated forms of FHIT to assess their cytotoxic effects on the HT1080 cell line. Full FHIT expression was confirmed by west...

 Minimax estimation problems with restricted parameter space reached increasing interest within the last two decades Some authors derived minimax and admissible estimators of bounded parameters under squared error loss and scale invariant squared error loss In some truncated estimation problems the most natural estimator to be considered is the truncated version of a classic...

In this paper, we derived recurrence relations for joint moment generating functions of nonadjacent generalized order statistics (GOS) of random samples drawn from doubly truncated class of continuous distributions. Recurrence relations for joint moments of nonadjacent GOS (ordinary order statistics (OOS) and k-upper records (k-RVs) as special cases) are obtained. Single and product moment gene...

background : so far, several studies were conducted to estimate the prevalence of cigarette smoking in iran, but none of them used a statistical model to deal with unobserved smokers. the present study planned to estimate the accurate prevalence of cigarette smoking using mixture of truncated poisson distribution. methods : a cross-sectional study was conducted in hamadan, west of iran in 2009,...

introduction: omp31 is animmunodominant and protective antigen conserved in brucella species and a good candidate for vaccine design. material & methods: the present study aimed at in silico design of the truncated omp31 (tomp31) using bioinformatic tools and to express the selected form in escherichia coli (e. coli) results and conclusion: various bioinformatically calculated scores for the mo...

Is every edge unfolding of every Platonic solid overlapfree? The answer is yes. In other words, if we develop a Platonic solid by cutting along its edges, we always obtain a flat nonoverlapping simple polygon. We also give self-overlapping general unfoldings of Platonic solids other than the tetrahedron (i.e., a cube, an octahedron, a dodecahedron, and an icosahedron), and edge unfoldings of so...

  Introduction : The innate immune system as the first line of defense against the pathogens recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs). Interaction of bacterial PAMPs by TLRs results in activation of innate and acquired immunity. FimH adhesin, a minor component of type 1 fimbriae encoded by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a PAMP of TLR4 tha...

Extended Abstract. The study of truncated parameter space in general is of interest for the following reasons: 1.They often occur in practice. In many cases certain parameter values can be excluded from the parameter space. Nearly all problems in practice have a truncated parameter space and it is most impossible to argue in practice that a parameter is not bounded. In truncated parameter...
