In the present study we prove rigorously that in the long-wave limit, the unidirectional solutions of a class of nonlocal wave equations to which the improved Boussinesq equation belongs are well approximated by the solutions ...

This article reports a mixed-method study that examined the washback effect from a locally-produced, theme-based, high-stakes English language proficiency test in tertiary education in a Turkish EAP context. The aim was ...

Purpose: In a world where corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a meaningful trend valued by firm stakeholders, it is still not clear how the marketing department integrates corporate-level social responsibility strategy ...

There is renewed interest in multi-informant and person-centered approaches to comprehending the nature of students’ behavior problems. However, most previous studies utilized single-informant or variable-based approaches. ...

MEMS array oscillators typically require a separate detector and feedback loop for each oscillator. We show that grating-based-optical-readout induces nonlinearity, which enables simultaneous operation of an array-of-oscillators ...

We analyze a joint assortment optimization problem for multiple locations of a firm, where each of those locations has an assortment capacity. When one location does not keep a product in its assortment, it transships the ...

This paper proposes two multi-period, multi-item capacitated stochastic lot-sizing problems under demand uncertainty. We model uncertainty via a scenario tree. The first model considers production, inventory, backlogging, ...
