Abstract:
To obtain equilibrium patterns of a competitive supply chain network with stochastic demand, risk-averse channel members, production capacity constraints and price ceilings, we derived the optimization conditions of manufacturers, retailers and demand markets via variational inequality respectively, and then established the whole supply chain network equilibrium problem. Projection and contraction method was utilized to solve the model. Numerical examples were given to illustrate the impact of risk-averse degree of manufacturers and retailers on network equilibrium patterns in case of capacity

Abstract:
In the Netherlands, high traffic density and intensive animal husbandry have led to high emissions of reactive nitrogen (N) into the environment. This leads to a series of environmental impacts, including: (1) nitrate (NO3) contamination of drinking water, (2) eutrophication of freshwater lakes, (3) acidification and biodiversity impacts on terrestrial ecosystems, (4) ozone and particle formation affecting human health, and (5) global climate change induced by emissions of N2O. Measures to control reactive N emissions were, up to now, directed towards those different environmental themes. Here

Abstract:
Understanding the potential drivers of microbial meat contamination along the entire meat supply chain is needed to identify targets for interventions to reduce the number of meatborne bacterial outbreaks. We assessed the hygienic practices in cattle slaughterhouses (28 employees) and retail shops (127 employees) through face-to-face interviews and direct personal observations. At the slaughterhouses, stunning, de-hiding and evisceration in vertical position, carcass washing and separate storage of offal were the identified good practices. Lack of hot water baths, absence of a chilling room, i

That system reduces the weight of the plates about 30%. The investigation has consisted of the final design of the mixtures of plaster mortar with residues of rigid polyurethane foam, mineral fibers, additives a

Abstract:
In theoretical mechanics, the equilibrium of a flexible, inextensible thread is considered, to which the tension force of its ends and the distributed force of weight along the length of its arc are applied. An unsolved problem is finding the shape of the thread under the action of other distributed forces. This study has considered the equilibrium of a completely flexible thread, to which, in addition to this force, a transverse distributed force is applied. A sail serves as an example. Wind of equal intensity in the plane of the orthogonal section of the sail can be considered a distributed

This thesis explores globalization’s effects on female migrant domestic workers in Latin America by examining the socioeconomic and political status of Paraguayan and Peruvian domestic workers in Argentina. Through this research, I answer several key questions. First, how does globalization shape neoliberal markets that enforce the exploitative structures of domestic labor? Second, how is gender inequality present in governmental and social discrimination? Third, do the costs of transnational care labor outweigh the benefits? The former two questions are answered by the rising demand for care

Abstract When fire raged through Rome in the summer of 64 CE, it was not an unusual disaster for a city built of more wood than stone. The firefighters had better access to water than those who had done the job in the past. Nero’s corn managers organised food. Subsidies were paid and prices controlled. The emperor’s failure was what he saw himself as his instant success, his personal performance of a song about the fire at Troy. Audiences also watched Nero play the part of Hercules, a madman in chains who had murdered his wife and children. A vast palace of banqueting halls, revolving ceilings

This egg is suspended here as a warning to men that, if they are bad, God will break them in the same way as the ostrich does her eggs.” Mohammed met me as I was returning to my house.

Chapter 4 jettisons the standard account of Altman’s “transpositional” script-to-screen strategy, in which he is said to have casually discarded the script in favor of the anarchic possibilities of communal filmmaking. Comparing preproduction scripts with final films, this chapter clearly establishes these films’ “improvisatory ceilings,” revealing the extent to which Altman’s approach depends on retaining rather than rejecting his scripts’ scenic and narrative structures. It is around these causal chains that Altman economizes, rejecting redundancy as well as thematic and dramatic cliché. Thi

It has since evolved from 6 to 18–22 passenger vehicles, a large number of which are plying Metro Manila routes. Currently, most jeepneys are fabricated in backyard shops using imported second-hand diesel powertrain components fitted on locally made chassis and body. Since the basic design is unchanged except for its length, the jeepney provides an uncomfortable ride, with high levels of diesel emissions, and insufficient safety features.
