Consumption and Commodities: The Political Economy of Canada’s Growth Model
… dissertation investigates Canada’s contemporary growth model in the context of the broader growth crisis affecting advanced capitalist democracies. Drawing on the Growth Model Perspective (GMP), it identifies Canada’s hybrid growth model (GM) and develops an explanatory narrative emphasizing the …

A stand level multi-species growth model for Appalachian hardwoods
A stand-level growth and yield model was developed to predict future diameter distributions of thinned stands of mixed Appalachian hardwoods. The model allows prediction by species groups and diameter classes. Stand attributes ( basal area per acre, trees per acre, minimum stand diameter, and …

VOLUMETRIC GROWTH MODEL OF HUMAN MEDULLOBLASTOMA IN THE NUDE MOUSE CEREBELLUM
… The development of a clinically relevant in vivo model is important not only to further understand the disease but also to provide a method with which to test novel therapeutics. This study quantified the volumetric growth of a human medulloblastoma (VC312) in the athymic nude mouse cerebellum …

An application of Solow's growth model: Case of sub-Saharan Africa
… study is to examine how a simple and predictable model like Solow's model can explain per capita income in SSA. Our study consists of cross-sectional-cum-time-series regressions using 32 SSA countries. The time span considered is a 26-year period from 1960 to 1985. The model is based on the …

The Impact of Tracking on Student Achievement: A Multilevel Growth Model
… English, and science tracks. A multilevel growth model is applied to analyze students' growth rate between 9th and 11th grades and the impact that students' ascribed characteristics and track placement have on student achievement over time. Results from the study find that overall there is …

Tumour growth model of cancer self-remission with hassell-varley functional response
Predator-prey like models with functional responses such as Holling type I and II have been studied previously to model the interaction between tumour cells, hunting predator cells and resting predator cells. The aim of this study is to introduce another type of functional response which is …

Growth model Epping : a method of measurement and analysis of industrial growth
This study, which commenced in 1971, is of a comparatively modern industrial township notionally conceived some 25 years ago on ground which, during the War Years, had been 'beneficially occupied' and, in other respects, laid to waste as an Artillary Range. The Range had other strategic advantages …

The effects of tax evasion on economic growth: a stochastic growth model approach
… investment and their implications for economic growth through a stochastic growth model in discrete-time. Taxation is important for many aspects for growth. Tax evasion creates negative impacts on the economy such as the fall in gov- ernment revenues, that fund public infrastructure, education …

Growth Model, Synthesis of Carbon Nanostructures and Alteration of Surface Properties Using Them
… desirable size (nanoscale roughness) attract the growth and attachment of microbial colonies to these CNS-enhanced substrates. This has potentially high-impact application in microbial fuel cells (MiFCs) whereby stainless steel (SS) meshes coated with flame-deposited CNS are used as anodes and the …

The application of A. Maizels' expost formulation of the Chenery-Strout growth model to Peru
Economic theory has produced many dynamic models of economic growth and development, some of which take into account the export-import sector and balance of payments problem so vital to underdeveloped countries. These models are either product-market oriented, money-market oriented, or some …

Using an Urban Growth Model Framework to Project the Impacts of Future Flooding on Coastal Populations
… surge inundation. This study will evaluate urban growth using a cellular automata model to analyze the trends in urbanization between 1996 and 2019 and predict how it will continue until 2050. The study uses historical trends in land use and urbanization, as well as spatial and environmental data, …

Application of High-Speed Rail Urban Growth Scenarios, using the UPlan Urban Growth Model in Victorville, California
… rail (HSR) station in Victorville, CA, are modeled using UPlan, a geographic information system (GIS) based urban growth model. UPlan is meant to provide a basic platform for modeling future growth to show what future growth patterns 'might' look like. Using demographic projections, land-use …

The natural rate of growth, the balance of payments constrained growth model and structural change: the case of sub-Saharan Africa
… We empirically test if the natural rate of growth is endogenous to the actual rate of growth. The results across different estimation techniques provide robust evidence that the natural rate of growth is endogenous to demand changes. Applying a political economy and institutionalist approach …
