The model developed in this paper differs from models using the lead-time crashing approach by explicitly specifying the source of the lead-time reduction cost (i.e., increasing procurement cost), which allows for analyzing the impact between lead-time reduction and buyerâsupplier interactions.
Skin color - patchy. Patchy skin color is areas where the skin color is irregular. Mottling or mottled skin refers to blood vessel changes in the skin that cause a patchy appearance. Considerations. Irregular or patchy discoloration of the skin can be caused by: Changes in melanin, a substance produced in the skin cells that gives skin its color.
Any change in these blood vessels can lead to mottled skin or red irregular spots on the skin which later on turns greenish or purple in color. In fair individuals it is more apparent; however people having dark skin color are equally susceptible to skin mottling.
