Consider a rectifiable simple curve in the Euclidean 3-space , where belongs to or . Define its energy by where is the shortest arc distance between and on the curve. The second term of the integrand is called a regularization. It is easy to see that is independent of parametrization and is unchanged if is ...

Cellular model
To obtain these equations an iterative series of steps must be done: first the several models and observations are combined to form a consensus diagram and the appropriate kinetic laws are chosen to write the differential equations, such as rate kinetics for stoichiometric reactions, Michaelis-Menten kinetics for enzym...

Metabolic theory of ecology
Much of past debate have focused on two particular types of mechanisms. One of these assumes energy or resource transport across the external surface area of three-dimensional organisms is the key factor driving the relationship between metabolic rate and body size. The surface area in question may be skin, lungs, inte...

Plasma cell leukemia
Treatments Prior to the use of newly developed drugs and treatment regimens, median survival rates from the time of diagnosis for pPCL and sPCL were 8–11 months and 2–8 months, respectively, even when treated very aggressively with the VAD regimen of vincristine, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone or the VCMP regimen of v...
