Alexander Khoury 11/7/2014 Review of Index Building Methodologies Introduction: In recent decades, academics, policymakers and non-governmental organizations have placed greater focus on establishing more comprehensive metrics of well-being and development ##. Measures of national welfare have conventionally centered on a fairly narrow band of economic considerations, such as gross domestic product (GDP) and employment rate. Poverty and wellbeing are now widely understood as multifaceted concepts

In this lab, deflection and strain are measured in an attempt to confirm Hooke’s law and the Euler-Bernoulli bending beam theory. In addition, the measured data allows us to calculate the modulus of elasticity (Young’s Modulus) or E of the cantilever beam. Through the course of the experiment our observations revealed that the addition of weights deformed the beam in response to the applied stress. This deformation can be modeled using the Euler-Bernoulli beam bending theory. Our experimentation

Performance Operating lease finance ROA r = - 0.469 p=0.026 Source: (Survey Data, 2015) Regression analysis A simple linear regressions model was done on operating lease finance and ROA and the results showed that operating lease

The data was obtained from the Alberta 's Caring for Diabetes (ABCD) project, a prospective observational study conducted in Alberta and funded by Alberta Health. The objectives of this study were to characterize and monitor the health state of patients with type 2 diabetes and their satisfaction with the health-care provided in the province. Further information on the design, rationale and baseline characteristics of the study sample can be found elsewhere [13] [14]. Study population The study

Bathymetry derived terrain variables are indicative of seabed morphology and can be used as predictors of suitable benthic habitats. A digital elevation model (DEM) is a digital representation of the elevation of locations on the land surface, and in the case of this report can be used as a digital representation of underwater bathymetry. The DEM can be used to derive various benthic terrain variables of underwater systems (Pescus 2012). Some terrain variables include depth, slope, rugosity, aspect

A new client for a cereal making company has asked us to help promote their cereal as “healthy”. This new cereal is called *name here*, and it is our job to determine the correlation between calories and potassium in order to make the new cereal “healthier” by lowering the calories but increasing potassium. We have researched the interrelationship between calories and potassium and this paper is a product of our analysis. We have compared data between the top fifteen cereals and have found that calories

Many Empirical Research involve statistical techniques to make reliable interpretation and inference of study results. P values are one of the important techniques used in statistical analysis. Researchers routinely consider a small p value (less than 0.05) to be "significant”, that is, to have a low probability of obtaining a result that is extreme under the null hypothesis. However, a small p value can also be misleading sometimes and can cause severe problems in the interpretation of study results

Linear-Regression Analysis Introduction Whitner Autoplex located in Raytown, Missouri, is one of the AutoUSA dealerships. Whitner Autoplex includes Pontiac, GMC, and Buick franchises as well as a BMW store. Using data found on the AutoUSA website, Team D will use Linear Regression Analysis to determine whether the purchase price of a vehicle purchased from Whitner Autoplex increases as the age of the consumer purchasing the vehicle increases. The data set provided information about the purchasing

factorizable approach based on a decomposition algorithm in an interactive model for finding the optimal solution to multi-level large scale quadratic programming problem (MLLSQPP), in which the objective function can be factorized into two single linear objective functions and has block angular structure of the constraints. What 's more, the author advances the concepts of satisfactoriness as the upper level decision-makers ' preferences until the preferred solution is come to. The bi-section method

5.7.7. Finite element results of the beams model: 5.7.7.1. Principal stress and principal strain for beam models: This section contains structural parts. The F.E. results are mainly shown in graphics. They are also compared to the experimental results obtained in the laboratory.
