Conferência 3: Relaxed Poisson cure rate models Josemar Rodrigues, ICMC-USP Abstract The purpose of this paper is to make the standard promotion cure rate model (Yakovlev & Tsodikov, 1996) more flexible by assuming that the number of lesions or altered cells after some a treatment follows a fractional Poisson…
Conferência 2: Degradation model N. Balakrishnan, McMaster University, Canadá In this talk, I will give a detailed description about degradation experiment, the data observed from such an experiment, the models that are used for their analysis, and then finally give some numerical results to illustrate the applicability of the developed…
Conferência 1: Statistical Innovation in Brazil: Technology Transfer and Products Francisco Louzada, ICMC-USP Abstract The statistical science has reached a remarkable stage of academic growth, which has been driven by its huge applicability in virtually all areas of knowledge. Despite this success, there exists at least one area in…
Minicurso: Topics of Reliabilities N. Balakrishnan, McMaster University, Canadá Day 1- 10:00-12:00 – Title: One-shot Device TestingResume: In this topic, I will explain the testing for one-shot devices which produces only either right or left censored data. I will then consider different lifetime distributions and explain the likelihood inference…
Title: Mathematical Modeling and Operational Research: Some Case Studies and Lessons of Mountaineering Júlio Michael Stern – Department of Applied Mathematics – University of São Paulo Abstract The title of this conference is an upbeat version of Lições de Abismo, a novel by Gustavo Corção, where the author wishes to…

Title: Neutralization of Acid Mine Drainage Presenter: Mario Primicerio – University of Florence Abstract: We present a mathematical model for the flow of an acid solution through a reacting porous medium. The solid matrix is supposed to be formed by families of spheres with different radii and the fluid…
Singular Shocks in a Chromatography Model: Singular Perturbation Theory and Geometric Insight Barbara Lee Keyfitz Department of Mathematics, The Ohio State University bkeyfitz@math.ohio-state.edu A standard model for two-component chromatographic separation provides a well-known example of a system of two hyperbolic conservation laws (quasilinear hyperbolic partial dierential equations) in…
