Modeling of recurrent threshold crossings due to noise with long memorySingh, Abhishek Narayan 25 April 2007 (has links)
This thesis addresses the recurrent threshold crossing behavior of long-time
correlated noise. The behavior of long-time correlated noise like f / 1 , 5 . 1 / 1 f , and 2 / 1 f
can be associated with the behavior of many phenomena in nature, so it is of interest to
study the behavior of this noise. Our method of modeling their recurring behavior relies
on setting a particular threshold level for a particular level of noise and observing how
frequently the noise crosses the threshold level. We also add a periodic drive to the noise
which enables it to cross the threshold level easily when it is at peak, and vice versa.
This technique provides a model for the changing seasons that occur during every year.
We also compare the recurrence behavior of threshold crossings from our computer
simulations with theoretical results from the Rice formula. We have related the
recurrence of these threshold crossings with the recurrence of natural disasters.
Therefore we are providing a model to predict the recurrence of a natural disaster once
that disaster has previously occurred. From our results, we conclude that once a natural
disaster has occurred, there is a high probability of its recurrence in a short time, and this
probability gradually decreases with time.

Aggressive Surgery for Management of Recurrent Intraabdominal CarcinomaRoseman, James M., Minton, John P. 01 January 1983 (has links)
With the evolution of effective multimodality control of various tumors, the role of surgery for recurrent malignancies is emerging as significant factor in not only maintaining that control, but in permitting the possibility of late cure of certain, even advanced intraabdominal malignancies. Several patients with Stage IV colon or ovarian carcinoma were evaluated and found to benefit from such an aggressive surgical approach with the result of long term control as well as apparent clinical cure in the several instances. These possibilities are becoming increasingly significant as progress is made in the various treatment modalities for neoplastic diseases.

Development of Conceptual and Process Models of Growing Pains: A Mixed-Method Research DesignVisram, Faizah 06 August 2009
Despite being a common childhood complaint there is little research on growing pains. Existing research is inconsistent with regard to sample selection and prevalence rates. There are only two English language intervention studies, and with the exception of associations noted in prevalence research, there has been no systematic research on the potential impact of growing pains on daily activities. Lack of a universal definition of growing pains poses difficulty for both diagnosis and research. The purposes of the current investigation were to propose a definition of growing pains grounded in literature and clinical practice, to develop a conceptual model of growing pains, and to understand childrens experiences with growing pains. A mixed-method research program involved four phases. In phase I, a survey of physicians indicated the following definition of growing pains: Intermittent pain of unknown etiology, occurring nocturnally in the lower limbs. Features that may occur in some cases, but not part of the definition, include arm pain and daytime pain. In phase II, non-parametric statistical analyses of child, familial, and environmental variables in a rheumatology clinic database were conducted to determine potential risk factors for growing pains. Logistic regression modeling indicated an association between growing pains and maternal illness or rash during the pregnancy, maternal smoking during the pregnancy, delayed pull to standing (i.e., greater than age 10 months), and family histories of back pain and arthritis. Potential mechanisms for these empirical associations are explored. In phase III, qualitative interviews with children were conducted to develop a grounded theory of how children process their experiences. Children engaged in a process of evaluating their current and past experiences of growing pains to determine how to manage specific pain episodes. Their evaluation was influenced by how they understood their pain which in turn was influenced by their intrapersonal and interpersonal experiences. Phase IV integrated results and existing literature to develop a conceptual model of growing pains which outlines characteristic features, predisposing factors, triggers, alleviating actions, and associated psychosocial features. Implications of the process theory and the conceptual model of growing pains with regard to clinical practice and future research are discussed.
