Marine ecosystem model analysis using data assimilation
Numerical modelling of the marine ecosystem requires the aggregation of diverse chemical and biological species into broad categories. To avoid large bias errors it is preferable to resolve as many explicit state variables and processes as possible. The cost of this increased complexity is greater …

Interactive exploration and model analysis for coreference annotation
… to compare several annotations. Complex analysis of annotated corpora is supported by means of a search engine which lets the user construct queries both in a graphical and textual form. Both qualitative and quantitative result breakdowns are available and the implementation features …

Hidden Markov model analysis of subcellular particle trajectories
… application of several variants of hidden Markov models (HMMs) to analyzing the trajectories of such particles. And we compare the performance of our proposed algorithms with traditional approaches that involve fitting a mean square displacement (MSD) curve calculated from the particle …

DISCLOSURE DECISION MODEL: ANALYSIS OF PRIVATE AND WORKPLACE FRIENDSHIPS
… goal is to utilize the disclosure decision model (DDM) to determine how relationship context impacts disclosure goals and disclosure characteristics. Data were collected from 117 individuals through snowball sampling. Findings indicated individuals were closer and perceived more support with …

Hardwood whole tree chips: a fuel storage model analysis
A pile of mixed hardwood whole tree chips was monitored for one year to identify the effects outside storage would have on the fuel potential of the exposed pile. A 20 foot conical pile was built by gravity feed from an overhead conveyor. Moisture content, fiber loss, ash, specific gravity, higher …

A nested random effects model analysis of child survival in Malawi
… Malawi using a modified Cox proportional hazards model which includes family and community random effects in addition to the fixed effect of the covariates. The parameters of the model are estimated using the Gibbs sampler, a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method. We believe this to be …

Trade flow of U.S. recalled consumer products: a gravity model analysis
… of goods in general. A Bergstrand-based gravity model is used in the analysis. My application uses a novel data set that includes measures of U.S. consumer product recalls from 2006 and 2007. The results of the analysis show that the flow of recalled goods corresponds to theory. The type of …

Comparison between mathematical and model analysis of stresses in building frames
… of the making and testing of a cardboard model of a beam fixed at both ends. The results obtained from the model compared very favorably with the mathematical solution as there was a variation of only 1.8 percent. The second experiment was performed with a cardboard model of a bent fixed …

DISCLOSURE DECISION MODEL: ANALYSIS OF CONFLICT AND ATTACHMENT ORIENTATION IN ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS
… of Julia Omarzu’s (2000) Disclosure Decision Model (DDM). The study seeks to predict disclosure target choice using situational differences, adult attachment styles, and goals for disclosure. More specifically, the goal of the current study is to predict if individuals who initiate a conflict …

A model analysis of an active vehicle suspension system using hydraullic control
… used to generate the active force. A quarter car model is used to represent the major dynamic modes for a simple active suspension. A Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) controller is designed with a weighted performance index. Two variants of this controller are studied: an optimal and a sub-optimal …

Determinants of financial inclusion among the youth in Namibia: A logit model analysis
… Financial Inclusion Survey (NFIS). A Logit model is employed to examine the determinants and barriers of financial inclusion, whereas a descriptive analysis is utilized to explore their macro-level differences. The overall results of the model showed that there is a positive relationship …

Improving Reno Earthquake Hazard Assessment Through a Ground-Motion Model Analysis and Paleoseismic Study
… of the four NGA-West2 (2014) Active Crustal models, which are trained on a global dataset of ground motion recordings, in the context of the Reno area. We compare the NGA-West2 model estimates with a new dataset of ground motion measurements derived from seismic recordings for 512 earthquakes …

The development and application of THERMUS : a statistical-thermal model analysis package for ROOT
A statistical-thermal model package, THERMUS, developed for incorporation into the ROOT framework of analysis, is presented. THERMUS, designed with applications to relativistic heavy-ion and elementary collisions of the baryon, strangeness and charge contents of he fireballs resulting from such …

A model analysis of stresses in the wall and floor of a cylindrical steel tank
The assumption of a fixed base condition for the analysis of wall stresses is justified only in the case of a rigid support, when the fixed-end moment is small. By evaluating the constants of the deflection equation for the wall at any given point, the variation of stress along the wall and the …

Business model analysis of the carbon dioxide removal sector: Case study of three companies in Iceland
Studies regarding sustainability in business models of carbon dioxide removal companies are limited. Consequently, thus a relevant knowledge gap exists. To examine this gap, an exploratory case study was conducted with the aim of understanding how sustainable and innovative business models are for …
