1D Occam inversion was conducted considering that earth is composed of uniform stratified layers (Constable et al. 1987).
These experiments are conducted considering that excitation frequency ratio (ω/ω s ) is equal to 1, tuning ratio is equal to 1, and for varying water-depth ratios.
Although invariance of this structure was demonstrated across calibration and validation samples (Xu, 2008), no invariance studies were conducted considering variables that play a role on self-regulation, such as gender.
To assess whether variety evolution did play a role in the observed changes, a further analysis was conducted considering only varieties that were sampled in the same village in 2003 and in 1976.
Accordingly, the current analysis discusses the results from a computational optimization study that was conducted considering the performance at low load-high speed (2 bar, 1800 rev/min) and high load-low speed (20 bar, 1300 rev/min) operating conditions simultaneously.
Because of that, our experiments were conducted considering some arbitrary values of threshold.
The experiments were conducted considering both types.
Nevertheless, 84% of the participants were partially (76%) or totally (8%) satisfied by the way the decision making process was conducted, 81% considered that collegiality was applied, and 93% agreed with the final decisions.
Further studies to develop tools assessing de qi based on the practitioner's feeling or senses should be conducted, and for that, various approaches considering the interaction between practitioners and patients and the historical meaning of de qi should be used.
We recommend that a RCT for FAI treatment be conducted, and that it is considered a research priority.
