Robustness analysis based on weight restrictions in data envelopment analysis
… chapter 3, we present our literature survey on restrictions. Data Envelopment Analysis is a value-free frontier which has the of yielding more objective efficiency measures. However, the complete freedom in the determination of weights for the factors and products) relevant to the assessment of …

Winning at All Costs?: The Weight-Control Behaviors of Student Athletes
… of this study was to explore student athletes' weight-control behaviors. Data consisted of student athletes' responses to a modified version of the Michigan State Weight-Control Survey (Dummer, Rosen, Heusner, Roberts, & Counsilman, 1987). Specifically, the study was designed to explore the …

Mathematical Modeling for Data Envelopment Analysis with Fuzzy Restrictions on Weights
… techniques to automatically calculate the weights assigned to the inputs and outputs of the production units being assessed. The actual input/output data values are then multiplied with the calculated weights to determine the efficiency scores. Recent variants of the DEA model impose upper …

Comparative Study of LRFR and LFR Methods of Rating for Missouri Steel Bridges
… that it helps the concerned agencies to enforce weight restriction on heavy vehicles to safeguard the structures from failure. Before the bridge is rated, the current condition of the bridge needs to be known and this is done through routine inspections specified by the concerned agencies …

A Simulation of the Impacts of Climate Change on Civil Aircraft Takeoff Performance
… in an increase in takeoff distances and weight restrictions. The main purpose of the present study was to update and generalize the extant prospective research using a more representative sample of worldwide airports, a wider range of climate scenarios, and next-generation climate models. …

Effects of Corrugations on Stiffness Properties of Composite Beams for Structural Applications
<p>Composites have high strength-to-weight ratios, which is particularly desired for applications with weight restrictions. Common composite materials such as carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CF) and fiber glass reinforced plastic (FG) were used in this research. While composite materials possess …

Comparative study of LRFR and LFR methods of rating for Missouri concrete bridges
… for both new and existing bridges, establishing weight restrictions on vehicles to prevent structural damage and potential failure of the bridge. Communicating these rated bridge loads to road users is achieved through visible signage indicating truck weight limits, commonly known as load …
