Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...

How does income inequality affect market outcomes in vertically differentiated markets? [PDF]

International Journal of Industrial Organization, 2007
The distribution of consumer incomes is a key factor in determining the structure of a vertically differentiated industry when consumer's willingness to pay depends on his income. This paper computes the Shaked and Sutton (1982) model for a general specification of consumers' income distribution to investigate the effect of inequality on firms' entry ...

Bayesian clustering of multivariate extremes

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The asymptotic dependence structure between multivariate extreme values is fully characterized by their projections on the unit simplex. Under mild conditions, the only constraint on the resulting distributions is that their marginal means must be equal, which results in a nonparametric model that can be difficult to use in applications ...

Using Financial and Sustainability Ratios to Map Sectors. An Approach With Compositional Data

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The article aims to visualize in a single graph Spanish fish and meat processing companies with respect to solvency, energy, waste and water intensity and gender employment gap. These financial, environmental, and social indicators are ratios, which require specific statistical analysis methods.

Active and passive explicit instruction in question‐formulating in higher education

The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the impact of explicit instruction on students' question‐formulating skill using a quantitative pre–post design. Surveys were administered to 291 undergraduates from two colleges before and after a dedicated lesson on question formulation. Students' skills were assessed through performance tasks, evaluated with both Bloom's and
