In the present review we will investigate the cases k = 2(2)6 and we will produce trigonometrically-fitted differential methods. 

In the seasons when herbicides are used, the enrichment for resistance will be as in Fig. 1A for lines with no fitness differential (/= ). In the off years (when the herbicide is not used) the fitness of the resistant individuals may be exceedingly low. The overall fitness is a compounded fitness of each stage or condition where measured germination, establishment, growth, effects of environment, agronomic procedures and herbicides. Both inter- and intraspecific...

After obtaining a set of fitted velocity versus time data for a particular test specimen, we can extract the contact force and depth of indentation by mathematical operations. The differentiation of the indenter velocity gives the equation for contact force while impact ... 

In a curve-fitting method the concentration of a reactant or product is monitored continuously as a function of time, and a regression analysis is used to fit an appropriate differential or integral rate equation to the data. Eor example, the initial concentration of analyte for a pseudo-first-order reaction, in which the concentration of a product is followed as a function of time, can be determined by fitting a rearranged form of equation 13.12... 

Most effective differentiation of the receptor between substrates will occur when multiple interactions are involved in the recognition process. The more binding regions (contact area) present, the stronger and more selective will be the recognition (17). This is the case for receptor molecules that contain intramolecular cavities, clefts or pockets into which the substrate may fit (Fig. 1). 

Experimental data that are most easily obtained are of (C, t), (p, t), (/ t), or (C, T, t). Values of the rate are obtainable directly from measurements on a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR), or they may be obtained from (C, t) data by numerical means, usually by first curve fitting and then differentiating. When other properties are measured to follow the course of reaction—say, conductivity—those measurements are best converted to concentrations before kinetic analysis is started.

One other approach is to measure the rate as a function of a specified argument alone, and then differentiate the function with respect to the argument used. The differentiation can be done graphically, or by fitting an empirical function to the data (like a Fourier series) and differentiating this analytically.
