Valuing guaranteed annuity options using the principle of equivalent utility [PDF]

, 2008
This thesis considers the valuation of guaranteed annuity options using an equivalent utility principle from the point of view of the policyholder. In this model I give an explicit form to the value functions involved in the indifference valuation.

A STUDY ON EQUIVALENT FLEXURAL RIGIDITY OF COMPLEX POLYGONAL HONEYCOMB STRUCTURE

Jixie qiangdu, 2017
The equivalent flexural rigidity of a complex polygonal honeycomb structure is investigated in this study. The honeycomb is equivalent to a orthogonal anisotropic plate for calculating the deformation energy under uniform bending moment,and the ...

Study on the propagation characteristics of methane-air explosion under the promotion of crushed gangue

Scientific Reports
Methane-air explosion is one of the major disasters in industrial process. The explosion strength could be influenced by the crushed coal gangue, which is widely distributed in coal mine gob and roadway.

Integration of OpenCV‐Based Microscopic Adhesive Volume Measurement Into a Pyiron Workflow for Automated Data Analysis

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Residual adhesive after electrode loading in adhesive‐assisted resistance spot welding is quantified through a traceable experimental‐to‐digital workflow. Chromatic confocal topography provides calibrated surface‐height data, while OpenCV detects the electrode imprint and integrates adhesive height into comparable volume metrics.

Microstructure Modification of Additively Manufactured Mo–9Si–8B by Annealing and Its Effects on High‐Temperature Mechanical Properties

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Postbuild annealing systematically modifies the phase fractions and morphology of EB‐PBF processed Mo–9Si–8B. Quantitative microstructure–property correlations reveal how controlled phase evolution enhances high‐temperature compressive strength and creep resistance.

Investigating the Effect of Inclination Angle and the Influence of Scan Parameters on the Appearance and Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Filigree Tension Rods of LPBF‐Manufactured NiTi Shape‐Memory Alloys

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article investigates the dependence of the properties on the manufacturing orientation in the form of the inclination angle to the build plate of LPBF‐fabricated NiTi rods with a diameter of 150–220 µm. Metallographic, chemical, thermal, and mechanical characterization show behavior under identical manufacturing conditions that ranges from ...

Controlling Grain Growth in Powder Bed Fusion of Yttria‐Stabilized Zirconia Using Femtosecond Lasers: Challenges and Methodological Insights

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Binder‐free laser powder bed fusion of 8YSZ with a femtosecond laser is used to map process windows linking scan strategy, heat accumulation, and grain growth. Time‐resolved thermography and simulations reveal thermal regimes that enable continuous, vitrified, and fine‐grained 8YSZ surface layers without absorptive additives and demonstrate ...
