BUDGET RATCHETING IN GOVERNMENTAL BUDGETING: AN EMPIRICAL INVESTIGATION
Previous literature has documented various aspects of behavior in the budgeting process. Behavioral problems that are often discussed include budgetary slack and opportunistic behavior that occur due to information asymmetry.

Study of Cyclic Plasticity and Creep Ratchet Behavior of PTFE
Due to its superior corrosion resistance and low coefficient of friction, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is extensively used in the aerospace, machinery, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. However, PTFE components encounter complex alternating stresses, resulting in ratchet and creep, which will affect the component’s reliability. It is therefore

Experimental analysis of the ratcheting behavior of linear flow split flanges of HC340LA
S.121-130In this work the cyclic transient behavior of the steel alloy HC340LA was analyzed. Experimental tests have been carried out on specimens manufactured out of metal sheets (this material in considered in as-received state) and on specimens ...

Mechanical behavior of large-diameter pipe elbows under low-cyclic loading
Large-diameter steel pipes are often used for transmitting and distributing water, gas, and oil products from the source to the end user. These pipelines are mainly oriented by using pipe el- bows due to their high flexibility along their routes.

Viscoplastic Constitutive Equations for Ratchetting Behavior
Inelastic deformation behavior of metals and alloys is considered rate dependent. Uniaxial ratcheting experiments performed by Ruggles and Krempl, and Hassan and Kyriakides exhibited that higher mean stress for a fixed stress amplitude resulted in higher ratchet strain within a rate independent framework and higher stress rate resulted in lower ratchet

Local Search and the Evolution of World Models
Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...
