    Abstract: Under the assumption of no unmeasured confounders, Cox proportional hazards regression with inverse probability of treatment (IPTW) weighting based on propensity scores can be used to produce approximately unbiased estimates of treatment effect hazard ratios and event risks using observational cohorts. Often the weights are treated as fixed even th... Show More

    Abstract: The general theme of this article is the theorical study of phase field systems, more precisely that of Caginalp. This work is motivated by their immense applications in many physical fields, industriels… The Caginalp problem gives the authors a formulation based on the fact that the phases separated by an unknown regular interface, which evolves i...

    Abstract: In this paper, Stokes first problem for an unsteady MHD free convective flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past an infinite vertical porous plate in the presence of a transverse variable magnetic field in a rotating system has been studied. The dimensionless governing partial differential equations are solved numerically by the finite differenc... Show More
