Consumer durables, investment, and financial cooperatives in the Islamic framework
(1977)
This study is concerned with consumers in the traditional sector of Iran who are highly influenced by Islamic rules and regulations, especially those prohibiting the charging of interest on loans. This constraint has been ...
Forecasting thunderstorms over a 2- to 5-h period by statistical methods
(1977)
Classical statistical techniques, such as multiple regression with variable selection and principal component analysis, were employed to define combinations of parameters from meteorological observations which optimally ...
A disaggregate trip distribution model for sketch planning
(1977)
In recent years, there has been an increasing demand for the evaluation of a wider range of alternatives in the planning process. Not only must the planning process address a broader range of alternatives, but it must have ...
Emergency medical service systems as studied through simulation modeling
(1977)
This research provides a model for the simulation of emergency medical systems. The model is a discrete-event type digital simulation utilizing the GASP Programming Language. Emergency incidents are input through an exogenous ...
Volumetric effects in the depolarization of electromagnetic waves scattered from rough surfaces
(1977)
Theoretical investigations of electromagnetic scatter from rough interfaces have been of interest for many years. Of particular interest is the depolarization of electromagnetic waves scattered from rough surfaces. Early ...
A spatial modeling approach to pelagic ecosystems
(1977)
A modeling technique is developed and applied to two different marine ecosystems problems. The technique approaches marine systems through the mathematical modeling of spatial patterns and deals with spatial heterogeneity ...
A numerical simulation of the accuracy of present engineering methods for predicting waterflood performance of stratified reservoirs
(1977)
A two dimensional two phase (water-oil) numerical model has been used to investigate the accuracy of present engineering methods for predicting the waterflood performance of stratified reservoirs. The model includes the ...
A systems model of the tourist's destination selection decision process with particular reference to the role of image and perceived constraints
(1977)
A model of the tourist's destination selection decision process was developed and evaluated. Data were collected through in-depth personal interviews using a non-scheduled instrument and five semantic differential scale ...
A computer simulation of populations of the horn fly, Haematobia irritans (L.)
(1977)
The survival of the immature stages of the horn fly, Haematobia irratians (L.), in manure droppings was studied under field conditions in Central Texas during the 1972 and 1973 horn fly seasons. The effect of interspecific ...
