Computational methods for fitting nonlinear models have developed considerably in the last decade. Statistical use of these techniques has, as yet, lagged somewhat behind. The present paper gives a ...

Least-squares fitting of such functions to irrigated-corn-yield data from three sites shows that these functions are capable of adequately representing the data; Mitscherlich and ...

To determine these coefficients, you can use the well-known Least Square Polynomial Curve-fitting algorithm of linear algebra. To do this, select more than a dozen data points from Figure 1 (15 in ...

What is the difference between nonlinear mechanics and the chaos theory? This question was originally answered on Quora by Harun Šiljak.
