ABSTRACT A class of one‐dimensional impact and dynamic contact problems taking into account non‐smooth velocities is studied. The new space‐time finite element approximation of dynamic variational inequalities is suggested. The non‐smooth solution for the impact of an obstacle by an elastic bar and its energy conservation under persistency conditions ...

In this paper we study the limit cycles which bifurcate from the periodic orbits of the quadratic uniform isochronous center ẋ = -y + xy, ẏ = x + y, when this center is perturbed inside the class of all discontinuous piecewise quadratic polynomial differential systems in the plane with two pieces separated by a non-regular line of discontinuity, which ...

Analysis of a Mathematical Model of Marital Satisfaction
ABSTRACT A large number of marriages end in divorce. In this paper, we present a model for the emotional state of a couple based on bilinear ordinary differential equations. We study the effect of changes of each individual's self‐emotional state on the couple's state.

Reduced risk of dementia with recombinant zoster vaccine in US adults age 65 or older
Abstract INTRODUCTION Herpes zoster vaccines may lower the risk of dementia onset. We evaluated new‐onset dementia among US Medicare beneficiaries ≥65 years old following recombinant zoster vaccination (RZV). METHODS We matched one RZV‐exposed to two RZV‐unvaccinated on age, sex, and race/ethnicity. Individuals were ≥65 years old on the RZV dose 2 date

Generalised Kinematic Single‐Impact and Multi‐Impact Models for Rocking Structures
ABSTRACT The rocking motion is fundamental in earthquake engineering, as it reflects the dynamic behaviour of many structural systems. However, simulating the impacts during rocking motion remains a challenging topic, as they occur in a very short time, generate high impulsive forces, cause sudden changes in velocities and result in rapid energy losses.

During the first years of this century, many papers have been published on the piecewise differential systems. The interest in these systems is mainly due to their increasing number of applications for modeling many natural phenomena. One of the main difficulties in understanding the dynamics of these systems consists in controlling their limit cycles.

ABSTRACT Although time‐varying Cox regression modeling approaches have been developed, exposure–response analyses for time‐to‐event (TTE) endpoints often rely on static exposure covariates and may overlook the real‐world dosing variability and drug concentration fluctuations over time. To better characterize pharmacokinetic (PK) or pharmacodynamic (PD)

Strategic (Inconsistent) Disclosures and Sophisticated Investors: Evidence from Hedge Funds
ABSTRACT Recent SEC regulations require that qualified hedge fund advisers provide their investors with narrative disclosures of their business and operations. We find that 40% of these disclosures omit or de‐emphasize information regarding advisers' operational and investment risks when compared to other sources of public information. Funds with such “
