Chatterjee P, Banerjee AK, Das P. A prediction equation for the estimation of vital capacity in nepalese young females. J. Hum. Sport Exerc. Vol. 6, No. 1, pp. 27-32, 2011. Till date no effort has been made to evaluate vital capacity of children and young adults in Nepal. At present it is difficult to achieve accuracy in clinical diagnosis because of the lack of a unified standard of the normal...

the srk two-parameter cubic equation of state has been used for the calculation of the equilibrium constant using the liquid and vapor fugacity coefficients for three binary mixtures. dew and bubble points have been determined using the equilibrium constants and the phase envelope has been plotted showing dearly that retrograde condenstaion occurs. the following percent deviations have been obt...

The current study examines how holding misconceptions about key problem features affects students’ ability to solve algebraic equations correctly and to learn correct procedures for problem solution. Algebra I students learning to solve simple equations using the Cognitive Tutor curriculum (Koedinger, Anderson, Hadley, & Mark, 1997) completed a pretest and posttest designed to evaluate their co...

thermophysical properties of fluorine are interesting because of its applications in different areas of technologyand industry. the computations of thermodynamic properties were performed with the gma equation of stateunder critical conditions. the present work reports calculations of density, volumetric, and thermodynamicproperties of liquid fluorine on extended ranges of pressure and temperat...

prediction of available vapor pressure data in the case of compounds containing c-h-o led to derivations and recommendations of standard equations for this property. the accuracy of vapor pressure estimations is essential to use as a basis to calculate acentric factor, thermal and equilibrium properties. in this study, according to the previous work, an accurate equation to estimate vapor press...

this study is concerned with the prediction of particles’ velocity in a dilute turbulent gas-solidboundary layer flow using a fully eulerian two-fluid model. the closures required for equationsdescribing the particulate phase are derived from the kinetic theory of granular flows. gas phaseturbulence is modeled by one-equation model and solid phase turbulence by mlh theory. resultsof one-way and...

Through this study, the ability of a modified Peng-Robinson (MPR) equation of state in predicting the surface tension of n-alkanes based on the density functional theory approach was investigated and compared with other studies. The interfacial layer thickness and the density profile were calculated simultaneously at different temperatures from triple point to near critical point using the modi...

purpose accurate measurement or prediction of fat mass is useful in physiology, nutrition and clinical medicine. most predictive equations currently used to assess percentage of body fat or fat mass, using simple anthropometric measurements were derived from people in western societies and they may not be appropriate for individuals with other genotypic and phenotypic characteristics. we develo...
