In this work, the time series modeling was used to predict the Tazareh coal mine risks. For this purpose, initially, a monthly analysis of the risk constituents including frequency index and incidence severity index was performed. Next, a monthly time series diagram related to each one of these indices was for a nine year period of time from 2005 to 2013. After extrusion of the trend, seasonali...

Risk management is the underlying paradigm necessary to mitigate the impact of adverse outcomes such as financial crises, energy shortages, oil disasters, global supply chain disruptions, and a myriad of other potentially catastrophic large-scale system failures. This seminar series serves as a platform to bring together diverse perspectives, problem definitions and solutions that transcend dis...

conclusions aki is common in urology patients. the underlying aetiologies of aki in this group may explain a lower overall mortality, although increasing aki severity remains a marker of patients at higher risk of poor outcomes. the low rate of renal recovery suggests that urology patients who sustain aki are exposed to a significant risk of ckd and its attendant consequences for long term heal...
