Nonlinear split-plot design modeling and analysis of rice varieties yield

open access: yesScientific African, 2023
In this research, a class of nonlinear split plot design models where the mean function of the split-plot model is not linearizable is presented. This was done by fitting intrinsically nonlinear split-plot design (INSPD) models using the Chapman-Richards

The Application of the Random Time Transformation Method to Estimate Richards Model for Tree Growth Prediction

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
To model dynamic systems in various situations results in an ordinary differential equation of the form dydt=g(y,t,θ), where g denotes a function and θ stands for a parameter or vector of unknown parameters that require estimation from observations.

The Chapman-Richards Distribution and its Relationship to the Generalized Beta

open access: yesForest Ecosystems, 2019
Background The Chapman-Richards distribution is developed as a special case of the equilibrium solution to the McKendrick-Von Foerster equation. The Chapman-Richards distribution incorporates the vital rate assumptions of the Chapman-Richards growth ...
