%F a(2^n + 2) = 16 + 8(2^(n-1) - 1), n >= 3. [_Nathaniel Johnston_, Mar 26 2011]

%F From _Omar E. Pol_, Apr 02 2016: (Start)

%F a(n) = floor(sqrt(2*n^3)), if 0<=n<=2 or n=6.

%F a(n) = 2*A139251(n-2) + A267699(n-2) + A267695(n-1), if 3<=n<=5 or n>=7.

%e Written as an irregular triangle the sequence begins:

%e ...

%e The rows of this triangle tend to A188156.

%e From _Omar E. Pol_, Apr 02 2016: (Start)

%e For n = 5 we have that A139251(5-2) = 4, A267699(5-2) = 7 and A267695(5-1) = 7, so a(5) = 2*4 + 7 + 7 = 22.

%e For n = 10 we have that A139251(10-2) = 8, A267699(10-2) = 20 and A267695(10-1) = 4, so a(10) = 2*8 + 20 + 4 = 40.

%e (End)

%e Starting from a(3) = 7 the row lengths of triangle are the terms of A011782. - _Omar E. Pol_, Apr 04 2016
