Uncertainty and risk assessment
Risk assessment forms an integral part of clinical practice. Traditionally, risk has been portrayed as a binary concept, and its assessment regarded as a test that can be correctly or incorrectly classified. However, this article discusses how risk assessments are less straightforward than is commonly perceived and are often complicated by multiple forms of uncertainty. These uncertainties aris...
متن کاملHuman Health Risk Assessment of Cadmium Exposure in Dry Deposition of Atmospheric Dust (Uncertainty Analysis)
Background and purpose: The atmospheric suspended particulate matter is a major route of human exposure to different kinds of environmental pollutants especially toxic heavy metals. The aim of this study was to assess the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk of cadmium in dry deposition of atmospheric dust in Qazvin, Iran. Materials and methods: Glass traps were used for sampling dry atmosp...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality
like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...
Incremental explosive analysis and its application to performance-based assessment of stiffened and unstiffened plates
In this paper, the dynamic behavior of square plates with various thicknesses and stiffening configurations subjected to underwater explosion (UNDEX) are evaluated through a relatively novel approach which is called Incremental Explosive Analysis (IEA). The IEA estimates the different limit-states and deterministic assessment of plats’ behavior, considering uncertainty of loading conditions and...
متن کاملClimate Risk Assessment under Uncertainty: An Application to Main European Coastal Cities
This paper analyses the risk of extreme coastal events in major European coastal cities using a stochastic diffusionmodel that is calibrated with the worst case emission scenario from the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC), i.e., the representative concentration pathway (RCP) 8.5. The model incorporates uncertainty in the sea-level rise (SLR) distribution. Expected mean annual lo...
