abstract background and purpose: since protein a is considered an important protein from medical, medicinal, genetic engineering, and biotechnology point of view, the present study attempted to investigate and determine to what extent protein a is produced through regression, in addition to the production conditions of the protein. thus, a figure was introduced as for the estimation of the amou...

Ranking fuzzy numbers plays a very important role in linguistic decision making and other fuzzy application systems. In spite of many ranking methods, no one can rank fuzzy numbers with human intuition consistently in all cases. Shortcoming are found in some of the convenient methods for ranking triangular fuzzy numbers such as the coefficient of variation (CV index), distance between fuzzy set...

in this paper, we study the existence, asymptotic behavior of the positive solutions of a fuzzy nonlinear difference equation$$ x_{n+1}=frac{ax_n+x_{n-1}}{b+x_{n-1}}, n=0,1,cdots,$$ where $(x_n)$ is a sequence of positive fuzzy number, $a, b$ are positive fuzzy numbers and the initial conditions $x_{-1}, x_0$ are positive fuzzy numbers.

In the fuzzy arithmetic, the definitions of addition and multiplication of fuzzy numbers are based on Zadeh’s extension principle. From theoretical and practical points of view, this multiplication of fuzzy numbers owns several unnatural properties. Recently, to avoid this shortcoming, a new multiplicative operation of product type is introduced, the so-called cross-product of fuzzy numbers. Th...

INTRODUCTION The Food Neophobia Scale (FNS), originally developed in English, has been widely used in different studies to assess the individual's willingness to try new foods. However, a process of translation and cultural adaptation is required to enable the use of FNS in other countries. OBJECTIVE to translate and to validate the FNS into Brazilian Portuguese. METHODS the FNS was transla...

Single-gene overdominance is one of the major mechanisms proposed to explain heterosis (i.e., hybrid vigor), the phenomenon that hybrid offspring between two inbred lines or varieties show superior phenotypes to both parents. Although sporadic examples of single-gene overdominance have been reported over the decades, the molecular nature of this phenomenon remains poorly understood and it is un...

In the mathematical analysis, there are some theorems and definitions that established for both real and fuzzy numbers. In this study, we try to prove  Bernoulli's inequality in fuzzy real numbers with some of its applications. Also, we prove two other theorems in fuzzy real numbers which are proved before, for real numbers.
