OBSERVE the title of the building we are assembled to dedicate-the Mitchell Memorial Building of the Philadelphia Orthopaedic Hospital and Infirmary for Nervous Diseases. It is not the S. Weir Mitchell or the Weir Mitchell Memorial, but simply the "Mitchell Memorial" Building.2 As there are many Franklins but only one Franklin, so there are many Mitchells but only one Mitchell. I first saw Weir...

1. INTRODUCTION In a previous study, Weir & Schluter [1] (hereafter WS2007) argue that smaller average genetic distances between species in cooler latitudes represent faster rates of speciation relative to tropical species. Such an interpretation assumes clades evolve at constant rates across latitudes so that a hypothetical molecular clock ticks at the same rate, regardless of climate. By cont...

This study investigates the impact of cross structures on flood occurrences in mountainous rivers. The governing equations open channel flow were formulated based Saint-Venant equations. was segmented, and a node equation established at each section’s connection point. An overflow model bridges weir dams also developed. physical simplified modeled using actual building data calculation requirem...

Field-based assessments provide a cost-effective and accessible alternative to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for practitioners determining body composition in athletic populations. It remains unclear how the range of physical impairments classifiable in wheelchair sports may affect the utility of field-based body composition techniques. The present study assessed body composition using...

In this paper, the concept of ∂-quasiconvexity is introduced by using convexifactors. Mond-Weir-type and Schaible-type duals are associated with a multiobjective fractional programming problem, and various duality results are established under the assumptions of ∂-pseudoconvexity and ∂-quasiconvexity.

In this paper, we are concerned with a nondifferentiable multiobjective programming problem with inequality constraints. We introduce four new classes of generalized convex functions by combining the concepts of weak strictly pseudoinvex, strong pseudoinvex, weak quasi invex, weak pseudoinvex and strong quasi invex functions in Aghezzaf and Hachimi [Numer. Funct. Anal. Optim. 22 (2001) 775], d-...
