Simulation of Inhomogeneous Refractive Index Fields Induced by Hot Tailored Forming Components
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article presents a simulation model for simulating inhomogeneous refractive index fields (IRIF) in hot‐forged components, accounting for thermal influences and complex geometries. Through this simulation, a priori knowledge about the propagation of the IRIF can be obtained, allowing for the positioning of the component or an optical measurement ...

A Novel Simulation Approach for Damage Evolution during Tailored Forming
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Traditional damage models are struggling to accurately and efficiently simulate large‐scale three‐dimensional models with a great number of degrees of freedoms. A new gradient‐enhanced damage model based on the extended Hamilton principle can significantly reduce the computation time while ensuring mesh‐independence which is suitable to use in tailored

Economics of information and the theory of economic development [PDF]
Brazilian Review of Econometrics, 1985 This paper shows how recent developments in the economics of information can provide insights into economic relations in less developed countries, and how they can provide explanations for institutions which, in neoclassical theory, appear anomalous and/or inefficient.
