Designing an Intuitionistic Fuzzy Network Data Envelopment Analysis Model for Efficiency Evaluation of Decision-Making Units with Two-Stage Structures by Nafiseh Javaherian, Ali Hamzehee, Hossein Sayyadi Tooranloo

“…Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a powerful tool for evaluating the efficiency of decision-making units for ranking and comparison purposes and to differentiate efficient and inefficient units. Classic DEA models are ill-suited for the problems where decision-making units consist of multiple stages with intermediate products and those where inputs and outputs are imprecise or nondeterministic, which is not uncommon in the real world. …”

An Optical Model for Translucent Volume Rendering and Its Implementation Using the Preintegrated Shear-Warp Algorithm by Bin Li, Lianfang Tian, Shanxing Ou

“…In order to efficiently and effectively reconstruct 3D medical images and clearly display the detailed information of inner structures and the inner hidden interfaces between different media, an Improved Volume Rendering Optical Model (IVROM) for medical translucent volume rendering and its implementation using the preintegrated Shear-Warp Volume Rendering algorithm are proposed in this paper, which can be readily applied on a commodity PC. Based on the classical absorption and emission model, effects of volumetric shadows and direct and indirect scattering are also considered in the proposed model IVROM. …”

Disease outbreak in wildlife changes online sales of management items by Tomohiko Endo, Shinya Uryu, Keita Fukasawa, Jiefeng Kang, Takahiro Kubo

“…To explore the effects of infectious disease outbreaks among wild boars on countermeasure choices, we analysed online auction data before and after an outbreak of classical swine fever in wild boar. Online sales of boar traps decreased by 17 % after the outbreak, whereas sales of control items increased by 73 %. …”

Unsteady Mixed Convection Boundary Layer from a Circular Cylinder in a Micropolar Fluid by Anati Ali, Norsarahaida Amin, Ioan Pop

“…Most industrial fluids such as polymers, liquid crystals, and colloids contain suspensions of rigid particles that undergo rotation. However, the classical Navier-Stokes theory normally associated with Newtonian fluids is inadequate to describe such fluids as it does not take into account the effects of these microstructures. …”
