“SCALE” and “SCALING-UP”
This paper briefly summarizes definitions, approaches, and challenges to achieving “scale” in community-focused health programs as discussed at the 2005 CORE spring meeting and the USAID child survival and health grants program mini-university. This paper is meant to harmonize a vocabulary for use by NGOs and their partners as they further discuss, debate, and analyze how NGOs and their partner...
متن کاملScaling Effects on Materials Tribology: From Macro to Micro Scale
The tribological study of materials inherently involves the interaction of surface asperities at the micro to nanoscopic length scales. This is the case for large scale engineering applications with sliding contacts, where the real area of contact is made up of small contacting asperities that make up only a fraction of the apparent area of contact. This is why researchers have sought to create...

متن کاملSE19-CCI- From Developing to Scaling-Up Innovative Social Businesses at the Base of the Pyramid
Ten percent of the world population lack access to safe drinking water. In Pakistan 44% of the 180 million population is without access to safe drinking water, 64% of urban and 84% of rural population do not treat their drinking water and consequently waterborne diseases are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity. High stress in the use of ground and surface water, fast growth in populati...
متن کاملThe scale transition: scaling up population dynamics with field data.
Applying the recent developments of scale transition theory, we demonstrate a systematic approach to the problem of scaling up local scale interactions to regional scale dynamics with field data. Dynamics on larger spatial scales differ from the predictions of local dynamics alone because of an interaction between nonlinearity in population dynamics at the local scale and spatial variation in d...
