Superposition of Stress Fields in Diametrically Compressed Cylinders
The theoretical analysis for the Brazilian test is a classical plane stress problem of elasticity theory, where a vertical force is applied to a horizontal plane, the boundary of a semi-infinite medium.

Forecasting Quarterly Brazilian GDP Growth Rate With Linear and NonLinear Diffusion Index Models [PDF]
This paper uses linear and non-linear diffusion index models and combination of them to produce one-step-ahead forecast of quarterly Brazilian GDP growth rate. The non-linear diffusion index models are not only parsimonious ones, but they also purport to

Relations between indirect tensile and flexural strengths for dry and plastic concretes
Indirect tensile strength is not usually used for concrete mixtures proportioning and its technological control; flexural strength tests under third point loads arrangement are the pattern for such goals. Indeed, neither of such tests have the capability
