Multivariate analyses for the study of behavior: an integrated approach
نویسنده
چکیده
Simple quantitative evaluations of isolate behavioral elements (i.e. frequencies, durations, per cent distributions) are not representative of the whole behavioral structure [1]. As suggested in a landmark paper from Spruijt and Gispen [2], it is only through the evaluation of the inter-relations among behavioral elements that it is possible to explore behavior from very different points of view, greatly beyond what the human eye can intuitively interpret. In the present paper a brief outline of different multivariate techniques for behavioral analyses will be presented in the attempt to underline the feasibility of their integration.

Integrated Characterization and a Tuning Strategy for the PVT Analysis of Representative Fluids in a Gas Condensate Reservoir
Gas condensate reservoirs are characterized by a distinctive retrograde behavior and potential for condensate drop out during production and sampling. Efficient modeling of gas condensate reservoir requires careful phase behavior studies of samples collected prior to and during the production life of reservoir. In this work, an integrated characterization and tuning algorithm is proposed to ana...

Dam behavior investigation has been considered for a long time, with many studies conducted to identify and predict factors influencing such structures. In common dynamic analyses of dams, an input acceleration is typically used. At the same time, it was proved that such structures with a large contact with the ground usually experience different accelerations in their various supporting points...
متن کاملA Fully Integrated Method for Dynamic Rock Type Characterization Development in One of Iranian Off-Shore Oil Reservoir
Rock selection in modeling and simulation studies is usually based on two techniques; routinely defined rock types and those defined by special core analysis (SCAL). The challenge in utilizing these two techniques is that they are frequently assumed to be the same, but in practice, static rock-types (routinely defined) are not always representative of dynamic rock-types (SCAL defined) in the re...

Introduction: In the Holy Quran, hope, especially hope for the future, has been addressed many times and in different ways. In general, the study of the concept of hope shows that in any case, hope means expecting to achieve the goal accompanied by effort. In recent years, to achieve such a goal, especially in Iran, integrated monotheistic therapy has been used. The aim of this study was to des...
