In this paper, we study a reformulation of the Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) problem. We more general version problem first and derive conditions for an optimal solution, as well solution itself, all without using derivatives. Then, apply approach to reformulated EPQ This has been tackled by number researchers, wherein they have derived proposed algebraic derivations. However, their deriva...

OBJECTIVE To harmonize the collection of nonsurgical clinical and epidemiologic data relevant to endometriosis research, allowing large-scale collaboration. DESIGN An international collaboration involving 34 clinical/academic centers and three industry collaborators from 16 countries on five continents. SETTING In 2013, two workshops followed by global consultation, bringing together 54 lea...

(EPQ)1 is a self-report measure that operationalises Eysenck's model of personality.2 In addition to the original English language version,1there now exists a large number of foreign language translations,3,4 including Urdu.5,6 For both clinicians and researchers, the administration of 90 items may be prohibitive due to time or space constraints. Therefore a number of shorter measures,derived f...

This study investigated the relationship between extraversion and rates of acoustic startle habituation, a potential biological marker for individual differences. Personality was measured using the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), the Sensation Seeking Scale (SSS), and Tellegen's Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire (MPQ). Higher EPQ Extraversion and higher SSS scores were associa...

An extended economic production quantity (EPQ) model under stochastic demand is investigated in this paper, where a fixed lot sizing policy is implemented to reduce the complexity of production planning and inventory control, and outsourcing with a secondary facility is used to supplement the lot sizing policy and to cope with the random demand. The considered cost includes: setup cost for the ...

This study set out to re-examine the predictors of self-reported trait happiness as measured by the Oxford Happiness Inventory (OHI) as well as the predictors of various happiness types proposed by Morris (2004). In all, 120 Cypriot participants completed the 4 questionnaires: OHI, Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (TEIQue-SF), and Morris Multip...

in this model, we establish an inventory model to determine the optimal inventory replenishment scheme for the economic production quantity (epq) model for imperfect, deteriorating items with sales return service under multiple production and rework setup. in one cycle, production process can produces the products in m production setups and reworks the defective items in one rework setup. the c...

this paper investigates an epq model with the increasing demand and demand dependent production rate involving the trade credit financing policy, which is seldom reported in the literatures. the model considers the manufacturer was offered by the supplier a delayed payment time. it is assumed that the demand is a linear increasing function of the time and the production rate is proportional to ...

Previous evidence shows a reliable association between psychosis-prone (especially schizotypal) personality traits and performance on dopamine (DA)-sensitive tasks (e.g., prepulse inhibition and antisaccade). Here, we used blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) fMRI and an established procedural learning (PL) task to examine the dopaminergic basis of two aspects of psychosis-proneness (specific sc...
