Abstract This paper proposes an approach to find an optimum structure for educational levels of human forces. To this end, a Linear Programming (LP) Model integrated with a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) was employed. The integrated model was employed using the SAM of Golestan Province of Iran. It was demonstrated that when unemployment is the result of inconsistency between supply and demand...

We obtain an extremely high current sensitivity by wrapping a section of microfiber on a thin-diameter chromium-nickel wire. Our detected current sensitivity is as high as 220.65 nm/A2 for a structure length of only 35 μm. Such sensitivity is two orders of magnitude higher than the counterparts reported in the literature. Analysis shows that a higher resistivity or/and a thinner diameter of the...

there are many real problems in which multiple responses should be optimized simultaneously by setting of process variables. one of the common approaches for optimization of multi-response problems is desirability function. in most real cases, there is a correlation structure between responses so ignoring the correlation may lead to mistake results. hence, in this paper a robust approach based ...

sensitivity analysis with respect to the functional forms provides estimates of the uncertainties involved in choosing a specific functional structure. this is vital in cge modeling where it is conventional to take elasticities from other studies. in the present study, the robustness of model results with respect to the functional form is checked. in one scenario, the production function is rep...
