We conducted literature searches and analyses to describe the current state of multilevel intervention (MLI) research and to identify opportunities to advance cancer control and prevention. We found single-level studies that considered other contextually important levels, and multilevel health-care systems research and community-wide studies. This literature is characterized by limited reportin...

selective harmonic elimination (she) is a powerful modulation scheme aims to find the required switching angles in order to eliminate the number of undesired harmonics. she is a complicated problem which consists of several nonlinear equations which have multiple local minima. in order to eliminate the higher number of undesired harmonics and as a result reducing the total harmonic distortion (...

by new advancements in vehicle manufacturing vehicle quality evaluation and assurance has become a more critical issue. in present work, the vibration transfer path analysis and vibration path ranking of a car interior has been performed. the method is similar to classical multilevel tpa methods but has distinct differences. the method is named vivs which stands for vehicle interior vibration s...

The optimization of investment portfolios is the most important topic in financial decision making, and many relevant models can be found in the literature.  According to importance of portfolio optimization in this paper, deals with novel solution approaches to solve new developed portfolio optimization model. Contrary to previous work, the uncertainty of future retur...

A multilevel adaptive aggregation method for calculating the stationary probability vector of an irreducible stochastic matrix is described. The method is a special case of the adaptive smooth aggregation and adaptive algebraic multigrid methods for sparse linear systems, and is also closely related to certain extensively studied iterative aggregation/disaggregation methods for Markov chains. I...
