Chain sampling plan for Log Logistic distribution when the life-test is truncated at a prespecified time is discussed. The design parameters such as the minimum sample size and the acceptance number necessary to assure a specified mean life time are obtained by satisfying the producer’s and consumer’s risks at the specified quality levels, under the assumption that the termination time and the ...

introduction: omp31 is animmunodominant and protective antigen conserved in brucella species and a good candidate for vaccine design. material & methods: the present study aimed at in silico design of the truncated omp31 (tomp31) using bioinformatic tools and to express the selected form in escherichia coli (e. coli) results and conclusion: various bioinformatically calculated scores for the mo...

The power of a statistical attack is inversely proportional to the number of plaintexts necessary to recover information on the encryption key. By analyzing the distribution of the random variables involved in the attack, cryptographers aim to provide a good estimate of the data complexity of such an attack. In this paper, we analyze the hypotheses made in simple, multiple, and multidimensional...

Fragile histidine triad (FHIT) serves a critical function as a tumor suppressor that inhibits p53 degradation by mouse double minute 2 (MDM2). The functional domains of FHIT involved in tumor inhibition was interpreted. In-silico screening data were employed to construct truncated forms of FHIT to assess their cytotoxic effects on the HT1080 cell line. Full FHIT expression was confirmed by west...

We know that the slope of the radial, stellar light distribution in galaxies is well described by an exponential decline and this distribution is often truncated at a break radius (Rbr). We don’t have a clear understanding for the origin of these outer truncations and several hypotheses have been proposed to explain them. We want to test the various theories with direct observations of the cold...

To determine the safety stock required to achieve a desired service level, demands are commonly assumed to follow a normal probability distribution. However, since demands are necessarily truncated at values below zero, this paper will show that this approach underestimates the actual demand level and results in achieved service levels that are less than those targeted. Use of a left-truncated ...

Is every edge unfolding of every Platonic solid overlapfree? The answer is yes. In other words, if we develop a Platonic solid by cutting along its edges, we always obtain a flat nonoverlapping simple polygon. We also give self-overlapping general unfoldings of Platonic solids other than the tetrahedron (i.e., a cube, an octahedron, a dodecahedron, and an icosahedron), and edge unfoldings of so...

In present study, the effect of reservoir length on seismic performance of concrete gravity dam has been investigated. Monte Carlo probabilistic analysis has been used to achieve a sensitivity of the responses to variation of truncated reservoir length in finite element model. The ANSYS software based on finite element method is applied for modeling and analysis. The Pine Flat dam in California...

This work focuses on the use of truncated Gaussian distributions as models for bounded data { measurements that are constrained to appear between xed limits. We prove that the truncated Gaussian can be viewed as a maximum entropy distribution for truncated bounded data, when mean and covariance are given. We present the characteristic function for the truncated Gaussian; from this, we derive al...

  Introduction : The innate immune system as the first line of defense against the pathogens recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs). Interaction of bacterial PAMPs by TLRs results in activation of innate and acquired immunity. FimH adhesin, a minor component of type 1 fimbriae encoded by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a PAMP of TLR4 tha...
