MODELING THE SUPPLY CHAIN USING MULTI-TIERED CAUSAL ANALYSIS

Multi-tiered causal analysis is not really a technique but rather a procedure or process that models the push/pull effects of the supply chain by linking a series of multiple regression models together, based on marketing investment strategies and trade investments to retailers. The conceptual design applies in-depth causal analysis to measure the effects of the marketing mix on consumer demand at retail (pull—-consumption/retail sell-through) and links it, via consumer demand, to shipments from the manufacturer (push) to the retailers. This situation is known as a two-tiered model. In the case of more sophisticated distribution systems, a model of three tiers (or more) can be deployed—-incorporating, for example, wholesalers (that is, consumer to retailer to wholesaler to manufacturing plant).Agribusiness,

Sermon Eleventh: Easter Eve Messina aboard the Guerriere

Sermon Eleventh (Messina, on board Guerriere ) An Easter sermon retelling the life and crucifixion of Jesus to urge the congregation to live virtuous lives as Jesus did so as to enter Heaven.https://digital.kenyon.edu/chase_letters/1145/thumbnail.jp

Fourth of July Sermon

Chase\u27s sermon is intended for the fourth of July. He praises the founding fathers\u27 virtues and cautions against Americans falling to the same vices of European countries. Vices like greed and seeking of pleasure that would result in a end to liberty. He point out that America\u27s young age and geographical separation from Europe benefit it in this endeavor to remain virtuous and true to the principles of the Bible which the nation was founded on.https://digital.kenyon.edu/chase_letters/1135/thumbnail.jp

Complex edge effects in zigzag graphene nanoribbons due to hydrogen loading

We have performed density functional calculations as well as employed a tight-binding theory, to study the effect of passivation of zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNR) by Hydrogen. We show that each edge C atom bonded with 2 H atoms open up a gap and destroys magnetism for small widths of the nanoribbon. However, a re-entrant magnetism accompanied by a metallic electronic structure is observed from 8 rows and thicker nanoribbons. The electronic structure and magnetic state are quite complex for this type of termination, with sp$^3$ bonded edge atoms being non-magnetic, whereas the nearest neighboring atoms are metallic and magnetic. We have also evaluated the phase stability of several thicknesses of ZGNR, and demonstrate that sp$^3$ bonded edge atoms, with 2 H atoms at the edge, should be stable at temperatures and pressures which are reachable in a laboratory environment.Comment: 11 figure
