Family‐Wise Error Rate Control in Clinical Trials With Overlapping Populations
ABSTRACT We consider clinical trials with multiple, overlapping patient populations that test multiple treatment policies specifically tailored to these populations. Such designs may lead to multiplicity issues, as false statements will affect several populations. For type I error control, often the family‐wise error rate (FWER) is controlled, which is

The Concept of the Mixing Index
Abstract Many current measures of mixing, such as the statistics of concentration, the scalar dissipation rate, or dilution index, are based on the dilution of a single component or pseudo‐component. Because of this, they miss the influence of numerous conditions that directly change true mixing, such as initial separation of chemically distinct water ...

Characterization of Municipal Water Uses in Urban Areas Across the Contiguous United States
Abstract An improved understanding of municipal water demand is essential for transitioning toward sustainable urban water management. This study develops a municipal water demand model by utilizing the Integrated Urban Water Model (IUWM), aimed at estimating and analyzing urban water use patterns across urban areas rather than conventional county ...
