1. Estimation of optimum experimental plot size for taro culture
RESUMO: O taro é uma hortaliça tuberosa tropical que produz cormelos de elevado valor nutritivo e energético. Nos últimos anos seu cultivo tem-se expandido gerando a necessidade de mais informações da pesquisa. Todavia, na pesquisa científica, o tamanho da parcela experimental interfere diretamente na precisão do experimento. Para determinação do

3. Objective measurements of the penile angulation are significantly different than self-estimated magnitude among patients with penile curvature
ABSTRACT Introduction: The study was aimed to assess the presence of actual differences between the objective and the perceived magnitude of a curvature between patients affected by Peyronie's disease (PD) and congenital penile curvature (CPC). Materials and Methods: Wee analysed a cohort of 88 consecutive patients seeking medi- cal help for either CPC or

4. Pilares de concreto armado em situação de incêndio submetidos à flexão normal composta. / Reinforced concrete columns in fire under uniaxial bending.
According to Brazilian Codes, reinforced concrete structures must be verified under high temperatures, in order to assure the load bearing capacity to allow the safe evacuation of the users and the fire fighting and to reduce the fire spread to other compartments. For reinforced concrete structures, the columns must be analyzed carefully. The significant red

5. Inflated beta regression models / Modelos de regressão beta inflacionados
The last years have seen new developments in the theory of beta regression models, which are useful for modelling random variables that assume values in the standard unit interval such as proportions, rates and fractions. In many situations, the dependent variable contains zeros and/or ones. In such cases, continuous distributions are not suitable for modeli

6. A unified regularization theory: the maximum non-extensive entropy principle
Tsallis' non-extensive entropy is used as a regularization operator. The parameter ''q'' (non-extensivity parameter) has a central role in the Tsallis' thermostatiscs formalism. Here, several values of q are investigated in inverse problems, using q < 1 and q > 1. Two standard regularization techniques are recovered for special q-values: (i) q = 2 is the wel

7. ESTIMADORES DE CURVATURA BASEADOS EM APROXIMAÇÕES POR CURVAS PARAMÉTRICAS / CURVATURE ESTIMATORS BASED ON PARAMETRIC CURVE FITTING
Muitas aplicações em processamento de imagens e computação gráfica recaem em propriedades geométricas de curvas, particularmente suas curvaturas. Uma outra propriedade importante mas menos explorada é a torção, sendo esta para curvas no espaço. Vários métodos para estimar curvaturas de curvas planas são conhecidos, a maioria deles para curvas di

8. Improved quantitation of DNA curvature using ligation ladders.
It is often desirable to estimate accurately the local shape of DNA molecules. Such measurements are useful in understanding the intrinsic contribution of DNA sequence to curvature, as well as in assessing the effects of chemical modifications. We have been investigating the effects of asymmetric phosphate neutralization on DNA shape using the well-character

9. Asymmetric Oxidation of Giant Vesicles Triggers Curvature-Associated Shape Transition and Permeabilization
Oxidation of unsaturated lipids is a fundamental process involved in cell bioenergetics as well as in cell death. Using giant unilamellar vesicles and a chlorin photosensitizer, we asymmetrically oxidized the outer or inner monolayers of lipid membranes. We observed different shape transitions such as oblate to prolate and budding, which are typical of membr

10. Curved DNA without A-A: experimental estimation of all 16 DNA wedge angles.
The principal sequence feature responsible for intrinsic DNA curvature is generally assumed to be runs of adenines. However, according to the wedge model of DNA curvature, each dinucleotide step is associated with a characteristic deflection of the local helix axis. Thus, an important test of a more general view of sequence-dependent DNA curvature is whether

11. Enhanced Gravitropism of Roots with a Disrupted Cap Actin Cytoskeleton1
The actin cytoskeleton has been proposed to be a major player in plant gravitropism. However, understanding the role of actin in this process is far from complete. To address this problem, we conducted an analysis of the effect of Latrunculin B (Lat B), a potent actin-disrupting drug, on root gravitropism using various parameters that included detailed curva

12. Possibility of nonkinked packing of DNA in chromatin.
The idea that DNA in chromatin can be packed smoothly, without breaking of base-stacking interactions, has been explored by both energetical estimations and stereochemical model building. A model of deformed DNA is built that fits reasonably to the known dimensions of a nucleosome. The model has slightly changed torsion angles in the sugarphosphate moieties
