The statistical model for cure used in this paper the mixture cure model 10 assumes that a proportion of patients will be cured (experience the same mortality as the general population) whereas the remaining (1−proportion) of patients will continue to experience excess mortality compared with the general population.
This is not a specific drawback for the flexible parametric cure model, but for cure models in general.
Mixture models for cure have been proposed (Jones et al, 1981), which assume patients are either cured by treatment, that is, the disease is eradicated, or they are not, and only the latter would experience a recurrence after some time.
This paper provides a continuum mechanical model for the curing of polymers, including the incompressibility effects arising at the late stages of the process.
Our current model for barnacle glue curing [15] depicts the curing mechanism as a highly interdependent process akin to blood clotting [34] [37], in which enzymatic activity can affect both up and down stream processes.
First of all, a numerical model appropriate for cure simulation was introduced and its suitability to simulate the deformation behavior was demonstrated.
All authors (OlhaSh, AI, OlehSh) developed the microstructure model of light curing for dental composites based on PAL measurements.
Thus, the engagement of Hsp104-GFP with heat-induced substrates parallels the efficiency of [ PSI + ]Weak curing, which is increased at 40°C relative to 37°C and is inhibited by treatment with GdnHCl, providing additional support for our model of prion curing.
The reactions of 2,4-xylenol and 2,6-xylenol, with bis- and tris(4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethylbenzyl)amines derived from the reaction of 2,6-xylenol with hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA) were studied as models for the curing of novolac resins.
This paper describes the development of a calorimetry-based technique for monitoring of the curing of electron beam (EB) curable resins, including design of the calorimeter hardware and the development of an analytical model for calculating resin cure rates and radiation dose.
