Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Coupled Mathematical Model for a Temperature Dependant Blood Perfusion in Heterogeneous Biological Tissues during Microwave HeatingE. A. Adebile, B. N. Akintewe, K. M. OwolabiProblem statement: The temperature variation in heterogeneous three layered biological tissues was investigated. Approach: The blood perfusion was considered to be temperature dependent. The heating modalities were taking to go on simultaneously in each of the regions on the one hand and also sequentially in another arrangement. The asymptotic series solution was modified for the three layers and the matching … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,580 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTHE TEMPORAL DYNAMICS OF REGIONAL CITY SIZE DISTRIBUTION: ANDHRA PRADESH (1951-2001)G. Kumar, A. SubbarayanSystems with measurable entities are characterized by certain properties of their size distribution. City Size Distribution (CSD) and the underlying city size dynamics have received attention in the urban economic literature in recent years. In this approach we aim at evaluating the temporal dynamics of city size distribution in Andhra Pradesh, an Indian state for the period 1951-2001. The research … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 14 Apr 2014 · 6,819 accessesView PDF Cite
