This paper proposes a non-radial DEA approach consisting of both a static and a dynamic environmental performance index (EPI) for measuring environmental performance. The static EPI is defined as the ratio of a non-radial efficiencymeasure for reducing undesirable outputs to that for increasing desirable outputs. The proposed non-radial DEA approach has been applied to model the environmental p...

Biological membranes display considerable anisotropy due to differences in composition, physical characteristics, and packing of membrane components. In this Letter, we have demonstrated the environmental heterogeneity along the bilayer normal in a depth-dependent manner using a number of anthroyloxy fatty acid probes. We employed fluorescence lifetime distribution analysis utilizing the maximu...

Both environmental and genetic factors interact to produce the orientation maps found in the primary visual cortex of adult mammals. However, it is not clear how this interaction occurs during development, or whether both factors are crucial. Previous computational models have focused on either environmentally driven or genetically driven development alone. In contrast, we show that a two-stage...

Despite the increasing research to determine influence of environmental sustainability orientation (ESO) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) on performance, our understanding is see mediating effect green capability between ESO, CSR, performance lacking. Data were collected by using survey questionnaires from top management construction manufacturing industry in Malaysia. A total 377 beco...

The Infant Behavior Record (IBR) from the Bayley Scales of Infant Development has been used to study behavioral development since the 1960s. Matheny (1983) examined behavioral development at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months from the Louisville Twin Study (LTS). The extracted temperament scales included Task Orientation, Affect-Extraversion, and Activity. He concluded that monozygotic twins were more si...

Focusing on the relationship between built environmental characteristics and environmental preference, the present study aims to investigate the expressed aesthetic preference toward different architectural styles of buildings in reference to how old they are. The graph model of Mallot (2000) assumes that the main issue relative to the spatial behaviour refers to the relationship between type o...
