Structural and Economic Approach to the Selection of Peak Regulating Capacities at Thermal Power Plants by E. V. Bohdan, M. B. Karnitski

“…A generalized desirability function has been obtained, which includes a number of parameters for choosing a rational relationship and mutual influence between the reliability and efficiency of electricity production with the participation of thermal power plant equipment in regulating the daily load schedule. The proposed mathematical model is an effective means of analyzing the suitability of equipment for use in the required operating modes.…”

Importance of underlying mechanisms for interpreting relative risk of Clostridioides difficile infection among antibiotic-exposed patients in healthcare facilities. by Christopher Mitchell, Lindsay T Keegan, Thuy T T Le, Karim Khader, Alexander Beams, Matthew H Samore, Damon J A Toth

“…Here, we model C. difficile transmission and CDI among hospital inpatients, including exposure to high-CDI-risk antibiotics and their effects on each stage of CDI epidemiology. We derive the mathematical relationship, using a deterministic model, between those parameters and observed equilibrium levels of colonization, CDI, and risk ratio of CDI among certain antibiotic-exposed patients relative to patients with no recent antibiotic exposure. …”
