Details

Equation:

rT = \frac{(T + 273.16) * e^{\frac{aa - \frac{bb}{T + 273.16}}{1.987}}}{1 + e^{\frac{cc - \frac{dd}{T + 273.16}}{1.987}} + e^{\frac{ff - \frac{gg}{T + 273.16}}{1.987}}}

where rT is the development rate, T the temperature, and aa, bb, cc, dd, ff, and gg thermodynamic parameters.
