Bioconcentration. In aquatic toxicology, bioconcentration is the accumulation of a water-borne chemical substance in an organism exposed to the water. [1][2] There are several ways in which to measure and assess bioaccumulation and bioconcentration. These include: octanol-water partition coefficients (K OW), bioconcentration factors (BCF ...
Tris (pentafluorophenyl)borane, sometimes referred to as "BCF", is the chemical compound (C6F5)3B. It is a white, volatile solid. The molecule consists of three pentafluorophenyl groups attached in a "paddle-wheel" manner to a central boron atom; the BC3 core is planar. It has been described as the “ideal Lewis acid ” because of its high ...
The survival function is a function that gives the probability that a patient, device, or other object of interest will survive past a certain time. [1] The survival function is also known as the survivor function[2] or reliability function. [3] The term reliability function is common in engineering while the term survival function is used in a ...
Survival analysis is a branch of statistics for analyzing the expected duration of time until one event occurs, such as death in biological organisms and failure in mechanical systems. This topic is called reliability theory, reliability analysis or reliability engineering in engineering, duration analysis or duration modelling in economics ...
t. e. In calculus, the product rule (or Leibniz rule[1] or Leibniz product rule) is a formula used to find the derivatives of products of two or more functions. For two functions, it may be stated in Lagrange's notation as or in Leibniz's notation as. The rule may be extended or generalized to products of three or more functions, to a rule for ...
Warped product. Warped product of two Riemannian (or pseudo-Riemannian) manifolds and with respect to a function is the product space with the metric tensor . [1] [2] Warped geometries are useful in that separation of variables can be used when solving partial differential equations over them.
The triple product rule, known variously as the cyclic chain rule, cyclic relation, cyclical rule or Euler's chain rule, is a formula which relates partial derivatives of three interdependent variables. The rule finds application in thermodynamics, where frequently three variables can be related by a function of the form f (x, y, z) = 0, so ...
For a scheme X over a field k and any field extension E of k, the base change X E means the fiber product X × Spec(k) Spec(E). Here X E is a scheme over E. For example, if X is the curve in the projective plane P 2 R over the real numbers R defined by the equation xy 2 = 7z 3, then X C is the complex curve in P 2 C defined by the same equation.
