Costs and risks

Recurrent ischemic stroke due to damage to the middle cerebral artery causes deterioration of neurological function and increases the rate of disability, death, and treatment costs many times compared to the first ischemic stroke. Assessing risk factors plays an extremely important role in preventing recurrent ischemic stroke. We have discuss some risk factors for recurrent ischemic stroke caused by middle cerebral artery damage.

Several studies have been carried out by optimising only the cost. They have not considered some other risk factors such as political and economic factors in their modelling. Currently, there is no generalised model available to determine the optimal sourcing locations incorporating important factors including risks in international LNG trading.

A major objective of the research presented here is to develop a link between the two approaches by establishing the relationship between the bridge component condition and the capacity and serviceability limits of the structure. A comprehensive review of literature identified methods of predictive modelling of bridge component condition change using different approaches. The review also indicated that a key to the proposed linkage is considering specific degradation mechanisms in predicting bridge deterioration.

When we do a benefit-cost analysis, we have to value a range of commodities which are either inputs to or outputs of the project. Some of these commodities are traded (i.e. can be bought or sold on international markets) and some are non-traded (are not bought or sold in international markets but are only traded domestically).
