The mass transfer parameters including effective moisture diffusivity (Deff), mass transfer coefficient (KC) and mass transfer biot number (Bi) during rice cooking were calculated by developing a mathematical model in cylindrical coordinates.
The rate of syngas conversion and the rate of CO2, H2O, CH4, C2H4, C2H6, C3H8, n-C4H10, i-C4H10 and C6.05H12.36 (C5+) formation were calculated by developing advanced codes in MATLAB.
The mean fat cell volume and size were calculated by formulas developed by Hirsch and Gallian [29].
The transitional and transversional differences, the Ts/Tv ratios were calculated by software developed based on the "K80" Kimura model [48].
Parameter predictions of the lactone and carboxylate forms of irinotecan and SN-38 were calculated by previously developed models (Xie et al, 2002).
Calculation of the intensity was performed applying Markov-Bernoulli statistics while the chemical shift for each sequence was calculated by a separately developed incremental method.
The responses of two systems involving subharmonic and superharmonic dominant motions are calculated by the newly developed method and compared with previously published findings.
The equivalent stresses, especially considering the fatigue life reducing influence of non-proportional loading in comparison to proportional loading, were calculated by a recently developed hypothesis, which is called the Stress Space Curve Hypothesis (SSCH).
Estimations of tumour presentation were calculated by the methods developed by Kaplan and Meier (1958).
First-phase insulin release was calculated by the formula developed by Stumvoll et al. (14).
