Using the statistical characteristics is one of the methods to justify the random nature of the ocean waves. Probability function are used to facilitate the studies of the random waves parameters, such as the surface and height and period of the waves. Since, the force of the ocean waves are the prevalent principal forces on the offshore structures, the assignment of the significant structural ...

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of an alleged aromatase and 5-α reductase inhibitor (AI) on strength, body composition, and hormonal profiles in resistance-trained men. Thirty resistance-trained men were randomly assigned in a double-blind manner to ingest 500 mg of either a placebo (PL) or AI once per day for 8 wk. Participants participated in a 4-d/wk resistance-trainin...

None of N-body gravitating systems have been considered to emit periodic gravitational waves because of their chaotic orbits when N = 3 (or more). We employ a figure-eight orbit as a specific model for a 3-body system in order to illustrate that some of triple stars are capable of generating periodic waves. This illustration would imply that a certain class of N-body gravitating systems may be ...

Objectives. To investigate whether lifestyle-only intervention in obese children who maintain or lose a modest amount of weight redistributes parameters of body composition and reverses metabolic abnormalities. Study Design. Clinical, anthropometric, and metabolic parameters were assessed in 111 overweight or obese children (CA of 11.3 ± 2.8 years; 63 females and 48 males), during 8 months of l...

Waves on the ocean are generated well away from any shoreline and travel under a prevailing wind towards a distant shore. These deep-water waves eventually become shallow-water waves and break near the shore creating a turbulent surf front of bubbles, foam and spray, encompassing secondary breaking and smaller splashing waves. Human surfers can propel themselves shorewards on these breakers or ...

Heritabilities for and genetic and environmental correlations between uterine capacity, ovulation rate, and body mass (BM) were estimated in mice. Uterine capacity was defined as the number of fetuses (LUC or RUC for left or right side) in one uterine horn for unilaterally ovariectomized females. Ovulation rate (corpora lutea, LCL or RCL for left or right ovary) was measured on the remaining si...
