A nonhomogeneous two-stage model of carcinogenesis

Statistical properties of a two-stage model of carcinogenesis.

Some of the statistical properties of a simple two-stage model of carcinogenesis are explored. The implications of additive treatment effects versus independent treatment effects on the shape of the dose-response curve are considered. Response that is low-dose linear results in the cases where the mutation rates are affected by dose or in the cases where treatment changes the birth rate/death r...

Parameter Estimation in a Two-stage Model of Carcinogenesis

Numerical Simulation of Forced Convection of Nanofluids by a Two-Component Nonhomogeneous Model

Nanofluids, in which nano-sized particles (typically less than 100 nm) are suspended in liquids, have emerged as a possible effective way of improving the heat transfer performance of common fluids. In this paper a numerical study is performed to analyze the wall shear stress and heat transfer coefficient of γAl2O3-water nanofluids under laminar forced convection through a circular pipe. It is ...

A two-stage model for ranking DMUs using DEA/‎AHP‎

‎In this paper, we present a two-stage model for ranking of decision making units (DMUs) using interval analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to the efficient units, we evaluate the efficiency of each DMU by basic DEA models and calculate the weights of the criteria using proposed model. In the first stage, the proposed model evaluates decision making...

A Novel Two-Stage Mathematical Model for Green Supplier Development

Nowadays, numerous processes of any supply chain are done by suppliers and consequently they cause a massive amount of pollution released to the nature. Hence, greening the suppliers has become a necessity. Although most of green supplier development programs need high investment, formal optimization models that address this issue are very rare. This paper mainly aims to address this prob...
