In the framework of the transient flamelet model, the physical soot model terms such as nucleation, surface growth, and oxidation for the population balance equation of soot particle distribution were closed.
Therefore, it can be seen from Table 8 that all model terms such as linear (X 1, X 2 and X 3) quadratic (x 1 2, X 2 2 and X 3 2 ) and interactive effects (X 1 X 2, X 2 X 3 and X 1 X 3) are statistically significant.
Many of the models have terms such as 1/(x − a) which cause these errors.
Environmental factors that promote growth appear prominently in our model, but loss terms such as grazing by zooplankton, aggregation and sinking, advection, and cell death by viruses, parasites, or apoptotic mechanisms are not explicitly included.
HGT generates mosaic-like microbial genomes (Lawrence and Ochman 1998; Welch et al. 2002), a result that questions the validity of describing prokaryote diversity and evolutionary history with a tree-like model or using terms such as lineages or species (Hilario and Gogarten 1993; Doolittle 1999; Martin 1999; Doolittle and Zhaxybayeva 2009; Koonin et al. 2011; Williams et al. 2011).
QTL mapping strategies can easily accommodate hypotheses about sex-specificity of genetic variants, assuming a sufficient number of male and female progeny are available, through the use of appropriate statistical models that accommodate interaction terms, such as regression models where a phenotype is taken as a dependent variable and genotype is an independent or predictor variable.
However, further inspection of the scatter plots in Figure 5 suggests that the relations are more likely quadratic or cubic than linear, and if we assess the relation including quadratic and cubic terms, such models actually provide better model fit (based on Akaike's Information Criterion) and R changed from 0.67 to 0.89 for chronic pleuritis (data not shown).
Different experts define the concept 'business model' in different ways, including terms such as strategy, business-concept, revenue-model, economic model and the business model itself (Zott et al. 2011).
Model building strategies also included testing model fit after inclusion of additional terms such as age-squared to model non-constant age effects and interactions between OHIP-14 items, and examining correlations of independent variables for possible collinearity.
Such a strategy limits an early venture's funding in order to force the business to develop a profitable business model and then invests heavily in growth once such a model is identified — Christensen terms such investments "good money" for incubating growth businesses and extols the strategy for three reasons.
