The objective of this study was to evaluate the growth curve 525 monthly body weight data 19 males (n=313) and 8 females (n=212) swamp buffaloes (Bubalus b. carabanensis), from birth slaughter age (25 months). nonlinear models used were: logistic, Gompertz, Von Bertalanffy Brody. parameters were estimated by NLIN procedure, criteria adjustment given Akaike’s information criterion (AIC), Bayesia...

Abstract We discuss meromorphic functions on the complex plane which are Brody curves regarded as holomorphic maps to $${{\mathbb {P}}}_1$$ P 1 , i.e., have bounded spherical derivative. For some special classes we gave explicit criteria Brody. also divisors of very slo...

INTRODUCTION Fibromyalgia is a chronic disease of unknown etiology characterized by widespread muscle pain, with occupational, familial, social, physical and psychological performance involvement. The multidisciplinary approach to the disease leads to improvement in quality of life and symptomatology. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the improvement of activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of li...

Nearest neighbor distributions of molecular spectra can, in principle, be used to learn from quantum spectra about the classical dynamics of a system, i.e. whether it is regular or irregular (chaotic). However, the predictive power of this method is limited due to the generally small number of spectral lines available for analysis, and the ambiguities of the procedures used. This is demonstrate...

the objectives of this study were to identify a suitable mathematical model for describing the growth curve of baluchi sheep based on monthly records of live weight from birth to yearling; and to evaluate the efficacies of nonlinear mixed effect model (nlmm) and the nonlinear fixed effect model (nlm) methodologies. growth models were fitted to a total of 16,650 weight–age data belonging to 2071...
