Nano and viscoelastic Beck's column on elastic foundation
, 2014 Beck's type column on Winkler type foundation is the subject of the present analysis. Instead of the Bernoulli-Euler model describing the rod, two generalized models will be adopted: Eringen non-local model corresponding to nano-rods and viscoelastic ...

A Conversation With David Bellhouse
International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary David Richard Bellhouse was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, on 19 July 1948. He studied actuarial mathematics and statistics at the University of Manitoba (BA, 1970; MA, 1972) and completed his PhD at the University of Waterloo, Ontario, in 1975. After being an Assistant Professor for 1 year at his alma mater, he joined the University of Western ...

Random Vibration of Space Shuttle Weather Protection Systems
Shock and Vibration, 1995 The article deals with random vibrations of the space shuttle weather protection systems. The excitation model represents a fit to the measured experimental data. The cross-spectral density is given as a convex combination of three exponential functions.

From gateway to value ladder—The curious case of online mutual aid in China
Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.Abstract This study examines how InsurTech‐enabled information provision, specifically the disclosure of claimant information previously unavailable in conventional insurance, influences individuals' insurance uptake. We leverage Mutual Aid (MA) platforms as a natural context to examine how socially framed loss information, peer influence, and salience

Approximation techniques for parameter estimation and feedback control for distributed models of large flexible structures [PDF]
Approximation ideas are discussed that can be used in parameter estimation and feedback control for Euler-Bernoulli models of elastic systems. Focusing on parameter estimation problems, ways by which one can obtain convergence results for cubic spline ...

Size-independent Young's modulus of inverted conical GaAs nanowire resonators
, 2013 We explore mechanical properties of top down fabricated, singly clamped inverted conical GaAs nanowires. Combining nanowire lengths of 2-9 $\mu$m with foot diameters of 36-935 nm yields fundamental flexural eigenmodes spanning two orders of magnitude ...

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, Volume 127, Issue 7, 15 April 2026.ABSTRACT In time‐marching dynamical simulations, treatment of contact forces in deformable bodies represented by finite element meshes requires a compromise between simulation fidelity and computational costs. External forces directly evaluated at the mesh nodes offer better computational performance at the cost of modelling fidelity.
