In this work, an electrolyte-UNIQUAC model was developed by replacement of Boltzmann weight binary interaction parameters by the nonextensive Tsallis weight. A summation of the long-range electrostatic term (Debye-Huckel equation) and a short-range interaction term were considered in the calculation of thermodynamic properties. A framework proposed by Chen and co-workers was employed for the de...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the association between (self-reported) maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (pBMI), and child's weight, height and BMI at age 14 months. DESIGN Prospective multi-ethnic community-based cohort study. SETTING Amsterdam, The Netherlands. PARTICIPANTS 8266 pregnant women from the Amsterdam Born Children and their Development study, filled out a questionnaire coveri...

OBJECTIVE To obtain information on the hospital mortality of infants born in Fortaleza with birth weights less than or equal to 1,500 g, and to compare it with data from the Vermont Oxford Network, a center of excellence for neonatal care. METHODS Prospective cohort study, enrolling all infants with birth weight less than or equal to 1,500 g born in Fortaleza between March 1, 2002 and Februar...

Mature specimens ranging in weight from 47.00g to 4450g and in length from145mm to 610mm were used. Weight of ovary in the fish fluctuated from 4.0 g to 707 g with a mean value of 33.47. Absolute fecundity of samples varied from 3173 to 629230 and the relative fecundity varied in the range of 21.00 223.00 with a mean value of 91.17. The mathematical relationship of fecundity with other variable...

*Correspondence: [email protected] Department of Mathematics, Inner Mongolia University, Hohhot, 010021, China Abstract The present paper deals with the dependence of eigenvalues of 2nth order boundary value transmission problems on the problem. The eigenvalues depend not only continuously but also smoothly on the problem. Some new differential expressions of eigenvalues with respect to an endpoi...
