Abstract:
Credit risk is one of the major risks banks and financial institutions are faced with. With the New Basel Capital Accord, banks and financial institutions have the opportunity to improve their risk management process by using Internal Rating Based (IRB) approach. In this thesis, we focused on the internal credit rating process. First, a short overview of credit scoring techniques and validation techniques was given.

Abstract:
For the safe and efficient operation of power transmission systems, each system compo-nent must have an accurate current rating. Since the advent of formal power networks a wide variety of methods have been employed to calculate the current carrying capacity of power cables, ranging from simple analytical equations to complex numerical simulations. In the present climate of increasing power demand, but where finance for large scale network reinforcement schemes is limited, providing an accurate rating becomes paramount to the safe operation of the transmission network.

Through the use of advanced electronics technology, ANR equipped devices offer the potential to provide increased low frequency attenuation for hearing conservation applications.

Abstract:
Background: The pain experience is a complex integration of biomedical, psychological, social and contextual factors, few of which can be directly observed. Therefore, the assessment of pain is dependent on the patient’s self-report. Hospitals routinely use pain scales, such as the Verbal Rating Scale (VRS), to record a patient’s pain. However, these unidimensional scales are often used in a way that concatenates pain intensity with other pain elements, which makes choosing appropriate interventions difficult.

Abstract:
In a 1994 survey, on incidence rates of musculoskeletal injuries among private industries within the U.S, nurses ranked first nationally.

Abstract:
[EN] Power and flow oscillations in a BWR are very undesirable. One of the major concerns is to ensure, during power oscillations, compliance with GDC 10 and 12. GDC 10 requires that the reactor core be designed with appropriate margin to assure that specified acceptable fuel design limits will not be exceeded during any condition of normal operation, including the effects of anticipated operational occurrences. GDC 12 requires assurance that power oscillations which can result in conditions exceeding specified acceptable fuel design limits are either not possible or can be reliably and readil
