In this paper, we give two constructions of weakly distance-regular digraphs of girth 2, and prove that certain quotient digraph of a commutative weakly distancetransitive digraph of girth 2 is a distance-transitive graph. As an application of the result, we not only give some constructions of weakly distance-regular digraphs which are not weakly distance-transitive, but determine a special cla...

An anthropometric and body composition analysis was conducted on 123 competitive young male football players of different age groups (U13; U15; U17 & U19) with at least 4 years training load. 3D measurement were performed by the NX-16 ([TC]2, scanner Cary, North Carolina). Body measured bioelectrical impedance InBody 720 (Biospace Ltd.). Anthropometric characteristics among asymmetries between ...

We consider the problem of construction of graphs with given degree k and girth 5 and as few vertices as possible. We give a construction of a family of girth 5 graphs based on relative difference sets. This family contains the smallest known graph of degree 8 and girth 5 which was constructed by G. Royle, four of the known cages including the Hoffman-Singleton graph, some graphs constructed by...

Erdős proved that there exist graphs of arbitrarily high girth and arbitrarily high chromatic number. We give a different proof (but also using the probabilistic method) that also yields the following result on the typical asymptotic structure of graphs of high girth: for all ` ≥ 3 and k ∈ N there exist constants C1 and C2 so that almost all graphs on n vertices and m edges whose girth is great...

The world is undergoing rapid urbanization and experiencing its negative impacts, often due to the loss of urban green infrastructure. This study focuses on infrastructure Varanasi city, India, analyses current tree species diversity, carbon storage in aboveground belowground biomass soil. calculated because it serves as a stock reservoir. As random sampling, data were collected from 24 sample ...

A multivariate analysis was performed to provide objective descriptions of visually perceived differences in feeder-cattle frame size and muscle thickness. Three hundred and twenty-four yearling feeder steers were selected to represent USDA classifications for frame size (Large, L; Medium, M; Small, S) and muscle thickness (No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3). The frame-size classification (F) of each stee...

Heterogeneity of variance of growth traits over age is a common issue in estimating genetic parameters and is addressed in this study by selecting appropriate variance structure models for additive genetic and environmental variances. Modeling and partitioning those variances connected with analyzing small data sets were demonstrated on Lipizzan horses. The following traits were analyzed: withe...

By proposing two questions on total colorings of cubic graphs of large girth, we investigate a possible connection between girth and total chromatic parameters in cubic graphs.

In order to achieve integrated condition in the girth welding of high pressure natural gas transmission pipelines, the weld zones and its surrounding area should have good mechanical properties. Residual stresses are an important defect especially in the girth welding of the pipeline. In this study, two API X70 steel pipes (with spiral seam weld) of 56 inches outside diameter and 0.780 inch wal...

Body mass and body condition are often tightly linked to animal health and fitness in the wild and thus are key measures for ecophysiologists and behavioral ecologists. In some animals, such as large seabird species, obtaining indexes of structural size is relatively easy, whereas measuring body mass under specific field circumstances may be more of a challenge. Here, we suggest an alternative,...
