The combined cylinder asperity contact was first modelled with a stationary model in which an asperity was introduced at the contact rim.
Mortality rates were modelled using Poisson regression model in which age and period midpoints were used as continuous independent variables, number of deaths as dependent variable, and logarithmic follow-up time in person years as offset.
20 The distribution of patients in each NYHA class in the post-trial period was explored using a modelled scenario in which patients' symptoms were assumed to deteriorate over time (5% of patients were redistributed each year into NYHA classes associated with more severe HF symptoms).
Although a modelled situation in which the whole population consumes some alcohol would increase predicted deaths from cancer by 2771 (credible interval 2443 3898, +8% from 2006 levels) and from liver cirrhosis by 1265 (1166 1360, +22%), this was more than offset by averting 7705 (5248 11 934, −6%) deaths from CVD.
We postulate a groundwater flow model in which storativity and aquitard permeability are modelled as time-varying shocks.
The effects of food weight-based modelled substitution scenarios, in which part of the total meat intake was replaced by other food groups, on mortality and environmental impact were also investigated.
We also modelled alternative strategies in which individuals with an HbA1c of 37 48 mmol/mol (5.5 6.4%) (Strategies 7 9) and individuals defined as high risk according to single-step non-laboratory criteria (Strategies 10 12) would be offered preventive interventions.
The nonlinear finite element method is used for modelling the problem, in which the ship structures are modelled by plate-shell finite elements and the ice-ridge structures are modelled by solid elements together with the KOSORI ice material models.
The transition between distinct microstructural patterns at a pivot state is modelled as a bifurcation in which a material element notionally evolves along multiple paths simultaneously, representing sub-regions of the element evolving in different ways.
Thus, it is very possible that the respiration rate would in reality decrease even more sharply than modelled in this paper, in which case the freezing-related CO2 burst would represent an even greater share of the measured CO2 efflux.
