Numerical Generation of Mode I Stress Intensity Factors for Narrow Elliptical Cracks in Round Bars

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
Summary The finite element model can replicate solutions found in the literature. The numerical crack tip singularity is analyzed in detail. Geometric correction factors decrease as the surface crack narrows. The polynomial fitting enables precise reproduction of SIF solutions.

Appraisal of Six Natural Mica Reference Materials for In Situ Rb‐Sr Geochronology

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.
Key Points Evaluated six natural mica reference materials for in situ LA‐ICP‐MS/MS Rb‐Sr geochronology using geochemical, microstructural and isotopic characterisation. Identified robust primary reference materials: Mount Dromedary biotite (99.37 Ma) and Mica‐Fe biotite (307.75 Ma). La Posta biotite and Högsbo muscovite are suitable secondary reference

When in Doubt, Tax More Progressively? Uncertainty and Progressive Income Taxation

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the optimal income tax problem under parameter uncertainty about household preferences and wage dynamics. We derive conditions characterizing how such uncertainty affects optimal tax policy. To quantify the effect, we estimate a life‐cycle model using US data and a Bayesian approach.

Cross‐Prudence and Optimal Prevention

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we study optimal prevention in the presence of a correlated nonfinancial background risk. Under positive correlation, cross‐prudence in the nonfinancial attribute reduces optimal prevention. We establish this result in the most direct extension of the standard prevention problem with binary marginal distributions and show that ...

The Causal Effect of Parents' Education on Children's Earnings

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop and estimate a model of endogenous schooling and earnings to isolate the causal effect of parents' education on children's outcomes. Identification uses earnings differences among children with equal schooling whose parents have different schooling.
