Applications of Subset Selection Procedures and Bayesian Ranking Methods in Analysis of Traffic Fatality Data
(WIREs Computational Statistics, 2016-11)Nonparametric and parametric subset selection procedures are used in the analysis of state motor vehicle traffic fatality rates (MVTFRs), for the years 1994 through 2012, to identify subsets of states that contain the ... -
Dynamic contact of two GAO beams
(2012-11)The dynamic contact of two nonlinear Gao beams that are connected with a joint is modeled, analyzed, and numerically simulated. Contact is modeled with either (i) the normal compliance condition, or (ii) the unilateral ... -
Dynamic contact with normal compliance wear and discontinuous friction coefficient
(2002-08)We apply the recent theory of evolution inclusions forset-valued pseudomonotone maps, developed in Kuttler and Shillor[Commun.Contemp.Math.,1(1999),pp.87–123]to the problem of dynamic frictional contact with normal compliance ... -
Dynamic contact with Signorini's condition and slip rate dependent friction
(2004-06)Existence of a weak solution for the problem of dynamic frictional contact between a viscoelastic body and a rigid foundation is established. Contact is modelled with the Signorini condition. Friction is described by a ... -
A frictional contact problem for an electro-viscoelastic body
(2007-12)A mathematical model which describes the quasistatic frictional contact between a piezoelectric body and a deformable conductive foundation is studied. A nonlinear electro-viscoelastic constitutive law is used to model the ... -
Mathematical model for outgassing and contamination
(1991-10)A model for the mathematical description of the processes of outgassing and contamination in a vacuum system is proposed. The underlying assumptions are diffusion in the source, convection and diffusion in the cavity, mass ... -
A Model for Chagas Disease with Oral and Congenital Transmission
(2013-06)This work presents a new mathematical model for the domestic transmission of Chagas disease, a parasitic disease affecting humans and other mammals throughout Central and South America. The model takes into account congenital ... -
A one-dimensional spot welding model
(2006-11)A one-dimensional model is proposed for the simulations of resistance spot welding, which is a common industrial method used to join metallic plates by electrical heating. The model consists of the Stefan problem, in ... -
Product measurability with applications to a stochastic contact problem with friction
(2014-12)A new product measurability result for evolution equations with random inputs, when there is no uniqueness of the ω-wise problem, is established using results on measurable selection theorems for measurable multi- functions. ... -
Regularity result for the problem of vibrations of a nonlinear beam
(2008-02)A model for the dynamics of the Gaonon linear beam, which allows for buckling, is studied. Existence and uniqueness of the local weak solution was established in Andrews et al. (2008). In this work the further regularity ... -
Ultrasonic Parameters as a Function of Absolute Hydrostatic Pressure. II. Mathematical Models of the Speed of Sound in Organic Liquids
(2003-09)Polynomial expressions for the speed of sound as a function of pressure for 68 different organic liquids are presented in tabular form. The liquids form a subset of those discussed in the companion paper: Ultrasonic ...
