Modified virtual internal bond model based on deformable Voronoi particles

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2020
: In last time, the series of virtual internal bond model was proposed for solving rock mechanics problems. In these models, the rock continuum is considered as a structure of discrete particles connected by normal and shear springs (bonds).

International Bond Risk Premia [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2010
We identify local and global factors across international bond markets that are poorly spanned by the cross-section of yields but have strong forecasting power for future bond excess returns. Local and global factors are jointly signicant predictors of bond returns, where the global factor is closely linked to US bond risk premia and international ...

Green bond issuance and corporate ESG performance: the perspective of internal attention and external supervision

open access: yesHumanities & Social Sciences Communications, 2023
Based on the staggered difference-in-difference (DID) model, this paper uses Chinese listed firms between 2012 and 2020 to investigate the impact of green bond issuance on corporate environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance.

Effect of Internal Curing with Superabsorbent Polymers on Bond Behavior of High-Strength Concrete

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
High-strength concrete (HSC) is widely used in engineering due to its high strength and durability. However, because of its low water-to-cement ratio, external curing water hardly enters the dense internal structure of HSC so that high self-desiccation ...

Bedding plane-embedded augmented virtual internal bonds for fracture propagation simulation in shale

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2021
To effectively simulate the fracture propagation in shale, the bedding plane (BP) effect is incorporated into the augmented virtual internal bond (AVIB) constitutive relation through BP tensor. Comparing the BP-embedded AVIB with the theory of transverse

Spread Overreaction in International Bond Markets [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 1998
This paper applies the Campbell-Shiller (1987) methodology to a study of the joint behaviour of a three-month and a five-year government yield in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany and Japan. The period studied is for most countries the mid-1970s to the third quarter of 1997.
