background: pulmonary function tests (pfts) are used in assessing physiological to clinical status of the respiratory system, which is expressed as a percentage of predicted values. predicted pfts values are varies in different ethnics. predicted pfts values were studied in a sample of iranian children. materials and methods: prediction equations for pfts were derived from urban children in the...

In this paper, we prove an asymptotic formula for the sum of values periodic zeta-function at nontrivial zeros Riemann (up to some height) which are symmetrical on real line and critical line. This is extension previous results due Garunkštis, Kalpokas, and, more recently, Sowa. Whereas Sowa’s approach was assuming yet unproved hypothesis, our result holds unconditionally.

Computing the exact ideal and nadir criterion values is a very ‎important subject in ‎multi-‎objective linear programming (MOLP) ‎problems‎‎. In fact‎, ‎these values define the ideal and nadir points as lower and ‎upper bounds on the nondominated points‎. ‎Whereas determining the ‎ideal point is an easy work‎, ‎because it is equivalent to optimize a ‎convex function (linear function) over a con...

In this paper, quadratic and sextic B-splines are used to construct an approximating function based on the integral values instead of the function values at the knots. This process due to the type of used B-splines (fourth order or sixth order), called integro quadratic or sextic spline interpolation. After introducing the integro quartic and sextic B-spline interpolation, their convergence is ...

In this study, a temperature-dependent of the dispersion coefficients is calculated from equation state.The Lennard-Jones LJ (12-6-3) effective pair potential function and simple thermodynamic argumentwith the input PVT data of liquid metals are used to calculate the dispersion coefficients. The dispersioncoefficients ( , , ) 3 6 12 C C C are found to be a linear function of 1/T1+α , where T is...

from the mathematical point of view, the fao penman-monteith equation shows a homographic function related to the wind speed. the homographic function has horizontal and vertical asymptotes. in this issue horizontal asymptote is applicable; because the vertical asymptote occurs for negative values of wind speed but the negative sign indicates the direction of the wind speed and only the absolut...
