Transparency in Health Economic Modeling: Options, Issues and Potential Solutions

economic optimization and energy consumption in tray dryers

دراین پروژه به بررسی مدل سازی خشک کردن مواد غذایی با استفاده از هوای خشک در خشک کن آزمایشگاهی نوع سینی دار پرداخته شده است. برای آنالیز انتقال رطوبت در طی خشک شدن به طریق جابجایی، یک مدل لایه نازک برای انتقال رطوبت، مبتنی بر معادله نفوذ فیک در نظر گفته شده است که شامل انتقال همزمان جرم و انرژی بین فاز جامد و گاز می باشد. پروفایل دما و رطوبت برای سه نوع ماده غذایی شامل سیب زمینی، سیب و موز در طی...

Data-Driven Fuzzy Modeling: Transparency and Complexity Issues

Recently, the interest in data-driven approaches to the modeling of nonlinear processes has increased. Techniques based on fuzzy sets and rule-based systems have proven suitable mainly because of their potential to yield transparent models that are at the same time reasonably accurate. Many of the data-driven fuzzy modeling algorithms, however, aim primarily at good numerical approximation, whi...

Women’s Economic Empowerment: Key Issues and Policy Options

Transparency and Economic Policy

We provide a multiperiod model of political competition in which voters imperfectly observe the electoral promises made to other voters. Imperfect observability generates an incentive for candidates to offer excessive transfers even if voters are homogeneous and taxation is distortionary. Government spending is larger than in a world of perfect observability. Transfers are partly financed throu...

issues Distributing health care . Economic and ethical

Sundquist et al present a care need index for allocation of primary health care resources. Unfortunately, their paper rests on an erroneous description of the allocation model presently used in Stockholm, a blurred conception of need, and a mistake in the handling of data. The model used by Stockholm County Council to distribute funds between areas to purchase health care consists of four diffe...
