The effects of human loads on structures are difficult to predict because they depend on the type of activity people are performing. However, models for typical activities such as standing, sitting and jumping have been ...

Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a vast field and widely used by many applied researchers in the social and behavioral sciences. Over the years, many software packages for structural equation modeling have been deve...

Noted for its crystal clear explanations, this book is considered the most comprehensive introductory text to structural equation modeling (SEM). Noted for its thorough review of basic concepts and a wide variety of mode...

Discriminant validity assessment has become a generally accepted prerequisite for analyzing relationships between latent variables. For variance-based structural equation modeling, such as partial least squares, the Forn...

Practical problems that are frequently encountered in applications of covariance structure analysis are discussed and solutions are suggested. Conceptual, statistical, and practical requirements for structural modeling a...

SWISS-MODEL (http://swissmodel.expasy.org) is a server for automated comparative modeling of three-dimensional (3D) protein structures. It pioneered the field of automated modeling starting in 1993 and is the most widely...

In this article, we provide guidance for substantive researchers on the use of structural equation modeling in practice for theory testing and development. We present a comprehensive, two-step modeling approach that empl...

Purpose – Partial least squares (PLS) path modeling is a variance-based structural equation modeling (SEM) technique that is widely applied in business and social sciences. Its ability to model composites and factors m...

Abstract Mixture modeling is a widely applied data analysis technique used to identify unobserved heterogeneity in a population. Despite mixture models' usefulness in practice, one unresolved issue in the application of ...

Comparative protein modeling is increasingly gaining interest since it is of great assistance during the rational design of mutagenesis experiments. The availability of this method, and the resulting models, has however ...

Se asume que el lector ya tiene conocimientos previos de un lenguaje de modelado conceptual y de bases de datos relacionales. En este libro se aborda la problemática y la multiplicidad que supone obtener un esquema rela...

La presente documentación puede servir como guía para todas aquellas personas que quieran formarse en el ámbito de la ingeniería del software. Más concretamente, su objetivo principal es explicar cómo debe realizar...

La metodología BIM (Building Information Modeling), el Gemelo Digital y el Big Data son conceptos que han irrumpido en los nuevos procesos de desarrollo y modelización de proyectos de edificación y obra civil. La apli...

Este libro le ayudará a saber en qué consiste y cómo trabajar con el programa Revit Architecture. Se trata de un software que admite un flujo de trabajo de BIM (Building Information Modeling) y permite al usuario mode...

Transatlantic Landscapes: Environmental Awareness, Literature and the Arts considers culture as an outcome of nature as its fundamental principle. The biosemiotic suggestion that life itself is a process of signification...

Divorce has long been considered one of the most pervading stressful life events and has consistently been associa- ted with high stress levels and subsequent poorer mental- and physical health. This study evaluates the ...

With its emphasis on practical and conceptual aspects, rather than mathematics or formulas, this accessible book has established itself as the go-to resource on confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Detailed, worked-throug...

Structural equation modeling (SEM) has become a quasi-standard in marketing and management research when it comes to analyzing the cause-effect relations between latent constructs. For most researchers, SEM is equivalent...
