Abstract
We develop a numerical growth model which can predict the statistical properties of the height distribution of Japanese children. Our previous studies have clarified that the height distribution of schoolchildren shows a transition from the lognormal to the normal distribution during puberty period. In this paper, we demonstrate by our simulations that the transition occurs owing to the variability of the onset of the puberty period.
