We study the sound perturbation of a rotating acoustic black hole in the presence of a disclination. The radial part of the massless Klein-Gordon equation is written into a Heun form, and its analytical solution is ob...
the critical suggestions from the learned refereesand editorial board which greatly helped in the improvement of the paper.
In this article,an additive Perks—Weibull model capable of modeling life-time data with bathtub-shaped hazard rate function is proposed.The model is derivedby the sum of the hazard rates of Perks and Weibull distribu...
In Japan, most sudden deaths occurring during bathing happen in the winter, and predominantly to elderly people. One can infer a relation to physical conditions that are specific to aging. Atrial fibrillation, an arrh...
Frequent bathtub bathing (BB) improves the mental health of middle-aged and older Japanese in-dividuals. This study investigated the chronic mental health effects of BB, maintaining warmth using an insulating sheet an...
Aims: Bathing in deep, Japanese-style bathtubs is associated with high rates of sudden death in the elderly in Japan. The predominant causes of death in such cases are cardiovascular events and drowning. Blood pressur...
In this paper, the authors will study the estimation of maintenance efficiency in Arithmetic Reduction of Intensity (ARI) and Arithmetic Reduction of Age (ARA) models with a memory m. These models have been propos...
