We conducted model tests using ring-on-disc test configuration and component tests on bearing test rigs.
The US Energy Modelling Forum has conducted model comparisons since the 1980s by looking at the foci of models, their internal logic and representation, and their results (see e.g. [10, 11]).
On the other hand, Chen et al. (2013) conducted model simulations and report possible eastward drifts around the WSA regions during 2200 0600 LT in December solstice.
We conducted model diagnostics in three ways.
Despite the range of sensitivity analyses conducted, model predictions consistently suggested high efficacy of vaccination.
The conducted model tests assume the criterion of constant value regulation.
According to the results above, the conducted model is reliable with a high validity.
To find the optimal number of groups, we conducted model selection using BIC.
We conducted model selection in Stata 12, statistical modelling in R 3.2 [ 29] and decision analytic modelling in Microsoft Excel.
To detect potential non-linear relationship between BMI, selenium levels and GDS scores, we also conducted models using tertile groups.
To evaluate the impact of potential double counting for deposition, we conducted model runs without a deposition rate for virus.
