Towards concept analysis in categories: limit inferior as algebra, limit superior as coalgebra [PDF]
, 2015 While computer programs and logical theories begin by declaring the concepts of interest, be it as data types or as predicates, network computation does not allow such global declarations, and requires *concept mining* and *concept analysis* to extract ...

Bifurcation Analysis of a Stochastically Driven Limit Cycle [PDF]
, 2018 We establish the existence of a bifurcation from an attractive random equilibrium to shear-induced chaos for a stochastically driven limit cycle, indicated by a change of sign of the first Lyapunov exponent.

A Multi-Scale Numerical Method for the Study of Size-Scale Effects in Ductile Fracture
Metals, 2014 The use of a stress-strain constitutive relation for the undamaged material and a traction-separation cohesive crack model with softening for cracking has been demonstrated to be an effective strategy to predict and explain the size-scale effects on the

Unilateral contact and damage analysis in masonry arches
Vietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2009 In the present work the ultimate failure load and the collapse mechanism of a stone arch bridge are estimated by the usage of (a) a multi - part elastic model with unilateral contact frictional interfaces and (b) a continuous damage model.

Limit cycles in the presence of convection, a first order analysis [PDF]
, 2006 We consider a diffusion model with limit cycle reaction functions. In an unbounded domain, diffusion spreads pattern outwards from the source. Convection adds instability to the reaction-diffusion system.
