On the Modified Virtual Internal Bond Method

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 2005
The virtual internal bond (VIB) method was developed for the numerical simulation of fracture processes. In contrast to the traditional approach of fracture mechanics where stress analysis is separated from a description of the actual process of material failure, the VIB method naturally allows for crack nucleation, branching, kinking, and arrest.

Deuterium bonding at internal surfaces in silicon

Physical Review B, 1992
The strength of deuterium bonding to the walls of closed cavities within Si was determined in ion-beam experiments. These studies circumvented an inherent indeterminacy in the analysis of external-surface desorption and thereby achieved a quantitative characterization of Si-H surface bonding.

Guarantees and International Bonds

2008
Guarantees and international bonds are two separate subjects. A guarantee is usually an undertaking given by a person/guarantor as security for a credit facility offered by a creditor/bank to a borrower. An international bond is an undertaking given by a bank or issuer at the request of its customer (contractor/supplier) in favour of a project owner or

The Performance of International Bond Funds

CFA Digest, 1997
Abstract This paper evaluates the performance of U.S. based international bond mutual funds over the November 1988–March 1994 period. The funds are evaluated against single- and multi-index benchmarks. Our tests indicate that the funds, in general, were unable to outperform either benchmark over the total sample period.

International Bond Markets

1991
International bond markets bring together borrowers and investors from different national jurisdictions. There are two major varieties of international market: (i) Those where a borrower domiciled in one country issues a bond in the capital market of another country — this is conventionally termed a ‘foreign’ bond; (ii) Those where ...

An international CAPM for bonds and equities

Journal of International Money and Finance, 1993
Abstract Previous empirical studies of international CAPM models have not found much supporting evidence. In this paper we suggest reasons why this might have happened and perform new tests using improved models and data. A range of monthly CAPM models are estimated for 1973–1987 for aggretate equities and bonds in Germany, Japan, the US and UK. The

The Benefits of International Diversification in Bonds

Financial Analysts Journal, 1988
Some institutional investors may be confined (either by policy or by regulation) to holdings in the bond market. In the 1960-80 period, the U.S. stock market dominated the U.S. bond market in terms of risk-adjusted returns. But an internationally diversified portfolio of bonds dominated an internationally diversified stock portfolio.

?-Bonding contribution to restricted internal rotations in saccharides

Journal of Computational Chemistry, 1996
Extensive semiempirical SCF-MO calculations confirm that the exo-anomeric effect in methyl O-, N- and S-glycosides deals with an interaction of π-character along the C1 (SINGLE BOND)Y1 bond in a X5 (SINGLE BOND)C1 (SINGLE BOND)Y1 (SINGLE BOND)Me moiety (where X = O, S; Y = O, NH, S). The bond-order between orbitals of pπ symmetry on C1 and Y1 serves as
