Selection bias was controlled with all of the studies having random assignment (Melnyk & Fineout-Overholt, 2015). Validity was enhanced as three of the RCT’s used double blinding and the study conducted by Ouwehand et al., (2013), used triple blinding. Double blinding occurs when both the participant and the administrator

    The engineering component of the Florida Public Hurricane Loss Model predicts wind and rain damage to a variety of modelled building configurations in an effort to model hurricane losses. The program uses a Monte Carlo approach to probabilistically simulating damage to the exterior components of the models, but currently assigns costs to the damaged components deterministically. This implementation does not capture variations in component costs and building values. This paper investigates replacing

    which surplus of emission credits are to be transferable to a consecutive period (Li et al. 2012). Moreover, carbon emission inventory of different emitters may vary from each period under the different operating condition, which can be expressed as a random variable, the study system can be formulated through a MSP approach. Thus, in a MSP model for carbon emission management system, the objective is to maximize system benefits while satisfying the total carbon emission requirement. Specifically, the
