Proportional hazards models

created in 1970 by Betty Neuman, with the intent to explain to graduate students at the University of California, the connection of physiological, psychological, sociocultural, and developmental aspects of human beings (Neuman & Fawcett, 2011). The model provided structure to understanding the pattern of health and the connection of nursing as a system that interacts with the patient (Neuman & Fawcett,…

Growing up in an aesthetically focused society, I was essentially taught from a young age to hate the way that I look. I am half black, have never been thin, and definitely do not fit in with the predominately white town I was raised in. Sadly, this sense of insignificance has been a dictating emotion throughout my life. During the summer before my freshman year I decided that it was time to change. I felt that losing weight would make me much happier and therefore began to restrict my diet.…

There are some animal testing which have been found helpful and successful in determining the human treatment and medicine but that does not provide any guarantee that animal testing are always successful and helpful. Moreover, “animal ‘models’ have never been…

Agile project management allows teams to work closely together. Agile focuses more on working software rather than planning and hence it is also called value driven approach. Agile assumes resources and duration is fixed but requirements can be changing. Many in the industry would consider agile as non-planned approach, which is wrong. In fact, Agile believes that requirements are constantly changing and hence uses just in time planning and plans only for immediate needs. As we can see from the…

the performance regarding the strength point of view, FEA Analysis method has been used. As the area of the concern is about the design of the clamp cylinder that part only has been taken in consideration for FFA Analysis. The COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN model of the clamp cylinder configuration was prepared and analyzed the same using CAE Software package ANSYS. The same was meshed using SOLID 187 element. As the element is a tetrahedron element, it can map the intricate solid geometry reasonably…

testing. After each iteration, a working software build is delivered and working product is shown to all the important stakeholders, including customers. The builds are incremental and the final build consists of all the required features. In agile model, each project is handled differently, and methods are tailored so that they best suit the requirements of the project. Some of the most popular agile methods include • Scrum • Rational Unified Process • Extreme Programming • Crystal Clear •…

What’s factors played significant that can a role to individual verses a group or family treatment pertain to substance abuse? When discovering the debate with SAMHSA and the Advocacy group it brought awareness and insight of the separate services both entities offered. The National Advisory Council implement a resolution endorsing that the SAMHSA inspire a wide range of supporting services to make a dual diagnosis.

Animal testing is a form of animal abuse conducted by our society, though morally wrong this practice is still prevalent today. This is a hard custom to understand as animals are poor test subjects, tested inhumanly, lead to misleading results, while there are alternatives to animal experimenting that do not cause the loss of a life. This practice causes pain and suffering to animals, thus it is believed that animals should not be used as testing subjects. Millions of animals are used as…

The second ASL deaf event that I attended was the Grind Coffee House deaf event. This was different then the previous one that I attended, which was the Huntington Beach event. On my way, to this event I was nervous because my signing skills are still at a novice level. I was prepping myself in case I needed help remembering signs. Thankfully I was going with a group from class and we would be able to help each other if needed. Even though this was the case I was still nervous because there…

The OSI model is not a protocol instead, it provides a frame work for the development of other communication protocols. The bottom four layers could be classified as transport layers and top three could be classified as the high-level layers. There was a need for much simplified versions of the OSI model in the field of SCADA and IED communications. Hence a 3-layer model was created by the International Electrotechnical Commission which is called as the Enhanced Performance Architecture model or…
