}The perimeter of the ellipse x 2/a 2 + y 2/b 2 = 1 is 4J (a, b), where J (a, b) is the ‘elliptic integral’ This integral is interesting in its own right, quite apart from its application to the ellipse. It is often considered together with the companion integral Of course, we may as well assume that a and b are non-negative.

Very accurate approximations for the elliptic integrals of the second kind in terms of Stolarsky means
- Mathematics
- 2015
For $a,b>0$ with $a\neq b$, the Stolarsky means are defined by% \begin{equation*} S_{p,q}\left(a,b\right) =\left({\dfrac{q(a^{p}-b^{p})}{p(a^{q}-b^{q})}}% \right)…
How beetles explode : new insights into the operation, structure, and materials of bombardier beetle (Brachinini) defensive glands
- Biology
- 2015
The pulsed-jet character of brachinines' sprays is determined, which is in contrast to all other types of bombardier beetles that emit their sprays as continuous streams, and it is determined that spray pulsation arises due to explosion-induced displacement of the inlet structures to the reaction chamber periodically cutting o the ow of reactant solution into the Reaction chamber.

Automated Image Analysis for Systematic and Quantitative Comparison of Protein Expression within Cell Populations
- Biology
- 2014
It is shown that cell-to-cell ’spatial variability’ is a protein expression property, whose measurement is only possible from microscopy images, that allows the systematic detection of many classes of such variability, without the use of any prior knowledge about subcellular localization.
