Evaluation of the health risk implications of HQ values > 1 requires consideration of chemical-specific information on the basis for the underlying exposure guidance values, the uncertainty factors applied in the derivation of those values, the robustness of the health effects database, and other factors.
So optimizing dth is equivalent to optimizing p. The derivation of the value of p is given in Appendix Appendix 2. The location of each FBS is fixed, and the location of the active MUE is random.
The derivation of the value of λ i is rather involved and not shown.
Whilst the quality of some of the DNELs/DMELs might need improvement, the derivation of these values is a gain for occupational health and safety.
The derivation of these values has to consider potential adverse health effects, but also geogenic contaminants and anthropogenic load.
We do see that modeling the stage specificity with a constant value, an increasing value, and a non-linear function is plausible, but a clear motivation or derivation of the exact values would be beneficial for a better understanding of the modeling process.
This is followed by a discussion of our design, the rationale behind it, and the derivation of the parameter values that were utilized in it.
Appendix A gives a simple example to illustrate the derivation of the assumed values of K1, K2 and all the (theta_{j}).
The most significant numerical results are validated by performing a campaign of measurements in anechoic chamber and deploying a testbed for the derivation of the experimental values of throughput, return loss, power density, and directivity.
To avoid the trap of a canned technique, as Pearson's test so easily becomes, our teaching of the derivation of the likelihood values required understanding the binomial distribution.
