Determination of epidemic parameters from early phase fatality data: A case study of the 2009 A(H1N1) pandemic in Europe
(World Scientific Publ Co Pte Ltd, 2018)
This paper demonstrates that the susceptible-infected-removed (SIR) model applied to the early phase of an epidemic can be used to determine epidemic parameters reliably. As a case study the SIR model is applied to the ...
Minimization of rest mismatches in round robin tournaments
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018)
In sports tournaments an occurrence of a difference in the rest periods of opponent teams in a game which we refer to as a rest mismatch will disadvantage the less rested team. Thus it is only fair to expect opposing teams ...
A Fuzzy AHP-TOPSIS-Based Group Decision-Making Approach to IT Personnel Selection
(Springer, 2018)
Global competition and the rapid development of information technologies force organizations to continuously change their ways. Nowadays organizations need personnel who make a difference through innovative ideas and who ...
Mathematical Characterization of Thermo-reversible Phase Transitions of Agarose Gels
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2018)
The thermal phase transition temperatures of high (HMP) and low melting point (LMP) agarose gels were investigated by using UV-vis spectroscopy techniques. Transmitted light intensities from the gel samples with different ...
Turkish public preferences for energy
(Elsevier Science, 2018)
Public concern over energy supplies prices sustainability and efficiency has emerged as a major issue around the world. Yet most of what we know regarding public opinion on energy comes from North America and Europe. This ...
Flow Structure in a Shallow Mixing Layer Developing over 2-D Dunes
(E D P Sciences, 2018)
A high resolution Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) are used to characterize the evolution of a shallow mixing layer developing between two parallel streams in a long open channel over two-dimensional (2D) dunes. The study ...
A 'Regional Energy Hub' for achieving a low-carbon energy transition
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018)
The transition to a low-carbon energy economy will remain a cornerstone of national energy policies of countries committed to the climate change accord for decades to come. We think that transmission investment is one key ...
