Influence of spatial variability on slope failure analysis by the shear strength reduction technique by Zhang, Wengang, Goh, Anthony Teck Chee

“…Thus the analysis considered is in fact a 2-D correlated spatial variability problem. Present publications mainly use the predetermined spatial correlation length L, the dimensionless ratio of correlation length to the slope height L/H or the Markov chain approach to describe the tendency of elements spatially near each other to be correlated. …”

A bin-packing based heuristic for the integrated inventory and vehicle routing problem by Yang, Yang

“…The central premise is that in distributed additive manufacturing the inventory cost saving from the agile response to demand, reduced leadtime and lowered inventory level potentially offsets the increased production cost of additively manufactured products under certain supply chain configurations and system parameters. We present a series of simulation studies to analyze the impacts of downstream size, leadtime, demand mean, demand variability, cost premiums of additively manufactured products, additive manufacturing printer capacity, and inventory cost parameters on the relative cost performance of the two competing systems. …”

Development and Application of a Data-Driven Signal Detection Method for Surveillance of Adverse Event Variability Across Manufacturing Lots of Biologics by Wilde, Joshua T., Springs, Stacy, Wolfrum, Jacqueline M., Levi, Retsef

“…Abstract Introduction Postmarketing drug safety surveillance research has focused on the product-patient interaction as the primary source of variability in clinical outcomes. However, the inherent complexity of pharmaceutical manufacturing and distribution, especially of biologic drugs, also underscores the importance of risks related to variability in manufacturing and supply chain conditions that could potentially impact clinical outcomes. …”
