Accordingly, for trees that bore fruit for more than one consecutive phenological sampling period (i.e., for longer than 2 weeks) we distributed their basal area over the sampling periods in a way that the proportion of the basal area in each period followed the coefficients of the Pascal's triangle [Stevenson, 2004; Stevenson et al., 1994].
An effective diffusivity dependent on power input, drop size and interfacial tension is derived as follows: The above coefficient is substituted for the molecular diffusion coefficient in the spherical drop diffusion equation which is solved in the normal manner to predict drop-side mass transfer rates.
Construction of the a modified prognostic index was based on linear transformation as follows: The regression coefficient for each variable selected in the final multivariate complete case Cox model was divided by the lowest coefficient and rounded to the nearest integer [ 21].
The relationship between the two measures is as follows: the beta-coefficient equals the correlation coefficient between own and parental education weighted by the ratio of the standard deviations of own and parental education: beta_{j} = frac{{sigma_{{E_{j} }} }}{{sigma_{{{text{PE}}_{j} }} }}rho_{{E_{j},{text{PE}}_{j} }}, (2).
The impact of the outage correlation of transmission lines in a same disaster area is analyzed as follows: the correlation coefficient of any two lines in each disaster area is assumed 0.9 (strong correlation), 0.3 (weak correlation) and 0 (dependent), respectively.
Herein, η - 1 g i - 1 ρ i - 1 / 2 is chosen the receive coefficient, whereas g i 2 ρ i is chosen as the weight for the MSE at UE-i, which is given as E u i - η - 1 g i - 1 ρ i - 1 / 2 y i 2. The intuitions for choosing these coefficients are as follows: The receive coefficients η - 1 g i - 1 ρ i - 1 / 2 's reflect the different SNR conditions.
In the proposed coding algorithm, the wavelet coefficients are encoded as follows: the quantized coefficients in the subband buffer are scanned row by row (to exploit their locality).
Since the Rabi rate is the only free variable in the (mathrm{WRSE}_{k}), for a given k, it follows the Taylor coefficients are functions only of (Omega _{0}).
OSI was calculated as follows: The intra-observer coefficient of variation for OSI was 2.2% [ 35].
The RCI was calculated as follows: The test retest reliability coefficient (rxx) was computed for each measure.
