Valuation of environmental public goods and services at different spatial scales: a review [PDF]
To manage environmental problems in an adequate way, it is essential to take different spatial scales into consideration. As a tool for decision making, it would be beneficial if valuation methods take spatial scales into account as well. In this article,

Metric Based Upscaling for Partial Differential Equations with a Continuum of Scales [PDF]
Numerical upscaling of problems with multiple scale structures have attracted increasing attention in recent years. In particular, problems with non-separable scales pose a great challenge to mathematical analysis and simulation.

Hopf bifurcation analysis of scalar implicit neutral delay differential equation
Hopf bifurcation analysis is conducted on a scalar implicit Neutral Delay Differential Equation (NDDE) by means of the extension of two analytical methods: 1) center manifold reduction combined with normal form theory; 2) method of multiple scales.

Modelling multiple time-scales with flexible parametric survival models
Background There are situations when we need to model multiple time-scales in survival analysis. A usual approach in this setting would involve fitting Cox or Poisson models to a time-split dataset.

Adding a subjective dimension to an ICF-based disability measure for people with multiple sclerosis: development and use of a measure for perception of disabilities [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: The subjective dimension of disability, the perception of disability, is a dimension missing from the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and from health-related quality of life (HRQOL) instruments ...

A note on the method of multiple scales [PDF]
A modification of the method of multiple scales makes use of the expansion of parameters of the system in order to remove undesirable characteristics of the solution obtained by the usual multiple-scale method. When applied to the damped harmonic oscillator, the modification leads to the exact solution.
