During DNA replication, small fragments of DNA are formed. These have been observed experimentally and the mechanism of their formation modelled mathematically. Using the stochastic model of Cowan and Chiu (1992, 1994), we nd the probability distribution of the number of fragments. A new discrete distribution arises. The work has interest as an application of the recent theory on quasi-renewal ...

number of "municipal 'towns, in India, the methods of disposal of town"-wastes like night soil and katchra are highly insanitary and wasteful. The katchra dumping grounds and the night soil trenching grounds have often proved to be dangerous sources of fly breeding. For some years now, the compost method has been recommended as a satisfactory system of disposal of town refuse. It has proved to ...

This paper follows a geostatistical approach for the evaluation, modelling and visualization of the possible local interactions between natural components and built-up elements in seismic risk analysis. This method, applied to old town centre of Potenza hilltop town, offers a new point of view for civil protection planning using kernel density and autocorrelation indexes maps to analyse macrose...
