A point symmetry based method for transforming ODEs with three-dimensional symmetry algebras to their canonical forms
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
We provide an algorithmic approach to the construction of point transformations for scalar ordinary differential equations that admit three-dimensional symmetry algebras which lead to their respective canonical forms.
Analysis of the relationship between physical self-concept and body composition

INTRODUCTION
Health-related fitness (HRF) explains the capacity to perform physical activities without tiring and include specific components that are objectively measured with standardized physical tests. The physical ...
Characteristics of preferred gait patterns: considerations for exercise prescription - Chapter 7
(
Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
, 2016 , Book chapter)
Gait patterns have been widely studied in different fields of science for their particular characteristics. A dynamic approach of human locomotion considers walking and running as two stable behaviours adopted spontaneously ...
Exergames to Improve Postural Balance in Older People with Dementia
(
Human Kinetics, Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The focus of the study concerns the well-documented increased risk of falling in older adults that can lead sometimes to fatal consequences. Improving posture and motor skills is central to preventing falls. Further ...

Nanocomposites of polyaniline (PANI) with three different concentrations of micrometre-sized sawdust are prepared in aqueous media via chemical casting method at room temperature. Thereafter, the removal efficiency of the ...
The biogeochemical iron cycle and astrobiology
(
Springer International Publishing
, 2016 , Article)
Biogeochemistry investigates chemical cycles which influence or are influenced by biological activity. Astrobiology studies the origin, evolution and distribution of life in the universe. The biogeochemical Fe cycle has ...
C-class functions with new approach on coincidence point results for generalized (ψ,φ)-weakly contractions in ordered b-metric spaces
(
SpringerOpen
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, by using the C-class functions and a new approach we present some coincidence point results for four mappings satisfying generalized (ψ,φ) -weakly contractive condition in the setting of ordered b-metric ...
