The corresponding Finsler metric is derived by the two-parameter Weibull distribution function instead of two-parameter family of curves. First, the two-parameter cumulative Weibull distribution function in (2) is linearized to calculate [alpha], [beta], u variables in a simpler form.

The topics include the divisibility of L-polynomials for a family of curves, a family of plane curves with two or more Galois points in positive characteristic, full degree two del Pezzo surfaces over small finite fields, on coefficients of powers of polynomials and their compositions over finite fields, and finding a Gr|bner basis for the ideal of recurrence relations on m-dimensional periodic arrays.

If we analyze the uppermost family of curves (8760 hours, 10 years payback), we see that, for a filter bank selected at 300 fpm face velocity, the owner would obtain a lower owning cost index if the design final pressure drop is only 0.4" w.g.--not 0.6" or 0.8 "w.g.
