How it works

Delta is interpreted as the average time required for the body to use up all living energy. — Life equations for the senescence process☆
The characteristic life value delta across 11 male national datasets over 100-200 years was estimated at about 100.4 years. — Life equations for the senescence process☆
The national survival-curve analysis found that x0 increased over 200 years while delta stayed near 100 years. — Life equations for the senescence process☆
Life expectancy at birth approaches delta as alpha approaches infinity in the model. — Life equations for the senescence process☆
Substantial extension of human maximal lifespan would require increasing delta, reducing A, or both. — Life equations for the senescence process☆
If future biomedical advances only increase alpha without extending delta, average human lifespan would be limited to the characteristic life value estimated around 102-105 years in 2004-2011 data. — Life equations for the senescence process☆
Even with plateau mortality, extreme survival remains rare under the example where only about one of 10,000 people alive at 105 reaches 120 if A equals 0.64. — Life equations for the senescence process☆
