Recently genetic studies have been revolutionized by next generation sequencing (NGS) technology, and it is expected that the use of this technology will largely eliminate defects in the methods of association studies. The NGS technology is becoming the premier tool in genetics. However, at the moment the use of this method is limited especially in the livestock due to high cost and computation...

INTRODUCTION There have been few biomechanical studies that tried to investigate individual variations of human musculoskeletal parameters, e.g., moment of inertia or ratio of fascicle-tendon structure length. Additionally, many synergist muscles that have different moment arm one by one have often been analyzed as a single muscle. However, we need to pay more attention to musculoskeletal diffe...

Allowing leptoquarks to interact with both right-handed and left-handed neutrinos (i.e., “non-chiral” leptoquarks), we show that a non-zero neutrino magnetic moment can arise naturally. Although the mass of the non-chiral vector leptoquark that couples to the first generation fermions is constrained severely by universality of the π+ leptonic decays and is found to be greater than 50 TeV, the m...

In this paper, we analyze the planar cubic Alternative curve to determine the conditions for convex, loops, cusps and inflection points. Thus cubic curve is represented by linear combination of three control points and basis function that consist of two shape parameters. By using algebraic manipulation, we can determine the constraint of shape parameters and sufficient conditions are derived wh...

We analyze synchronized high speed video images and ELF-VLF radio emissions from 11 sprite clusters observed on 6 October 1997. Quantitative analysis shows that vertical lightning charge moment changes of 150–1100 C·km occurred before the optical emissions reached their peak with delays of 2–11 ms from the lightning discharge. This threshold unexpectedly decreases with increasing delay from par...

This paper presents a simplifiedlagrangian multiplier based algorithm to solve the fixed head hydrothermalscheduling problem. In fixed head hydrothermal scheduling problem, waterdischarge rate is modeled as quadratic function of hydropower generation andfuel cost is modeled as quadratic function of thermal power generation. Thepower output of each hydro unit varies with the rate of water discha...

bstract: In this article we propose further extension of the generalized Marshall Olkin-G ( GMO - G ) family distribution. The density and survival functions are expressed as infinite mixture Asymptotes, Rényi entropy, order statistics, probability weighted moments, moment generating function, quantile median, random sample generation parameter estimation investigated. Selected distributions fr...

As stochastic simulations become increasingly common in biological research, tools for analysis of such systems are in demand. The deterministic analogue to stochastic models, a set of probability moment equations equivalent to the Chemical Master Equation (CME), offers the possibility of a priori analysis of systems without the need for computationally costly Monte Carlo simulations. Despite t...

Rate outage probability is an important performance metric to measure the level of quality of service (QoS) in the Generation (4G) broadband access networks. Thus, in this paper, we calculate a closed form expression of the rate outage probability for a given user in a down-link multi-hop OFDMAbased system encountered as a result of links’ channel variations. The channel random behavior on diff...
