| the long-term effects of a token economy on safety performance in open-pit mining. | a token economy that used trading stamps as tokens was instituted at two dangerous open-pit mines. employees earned stamps for working without lost-time injuries, for being in work groups in which all other workers had no lost-time injuries, for not being involved in equipment-damaging accidents, for making adopted safety suggestions, and for unusual behavior which prevented an injury or accident. they lost stamp awards if they or other workers in their group were injured, caused equipment damag ... | 2013 | 3667473 |

| analytical threshold and stability results on age-structured epidemic models with vaccination. | this paper examines mathematical models for common childhood diseases such as measles and rubella and in particular the use of such models to predict whether or not an epidemic pattern of regular recurrent disease incidence will occur. we use age-structured compartmental models which divide the population amongst whom the disease is spreading into classes and use partial differential equations to model the spread of the disease. this paper is particularly concerned with an analytical investigati ... | 2012 | 3266036 |
