Elasticity Theory of Structuring [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013 Financial derivatives have often been criticized as casino-style betting instruments. It turns out that many naive ways of making them are indeed equivalent to gambling. Fortunately, this inadvertent effect can be understood and prevented. We present a theory of product design which achieves that.

PECKING ORDER THEORY AND TRADE-OFF THEORY OF CAPITAL STRUCTURE: EVIDENCE FROM INDONESIAN STOCK EXCHANGE [PDF]
, 2012 Numerous empirical studies in the finance field have tested many theories for firms’ capital structure. The pecking order theory and the trade-off theory of capital structure is among the most influential theories of firms’ capital structure.

The Theory of Capital Structure [PDF]
The Journal of Finance, 1991 ABSTRACTThis paper surveys capital structure theories based on agency costs, asymmetric information, product/input market interactions, and corporate control considerations (but excluding tax‐based theories). For each type of model, a brief overview of the papers surveyed and their relation to each other is provided. The central papers are described in

Velocity and Singularity Analysis of a 5-DOF (3T2R) Parallel-Serial (Hybrid) Manipulator
Machines, 2022 This article presents the velocity and singularity analysis for a five-degree-of-freedom (5-DOF) parallel-serial manipulator. The hybrid structure of the manipulator combines a tripod-like parallel part and a serial part, represented as two carriages ...

Theory of Spiral Structure [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1983 Spiral structure is associated with a slow redistribution of gas, which may already be quite significant over time scales short compared to the age of the galaxy. One has to worry about replacing the gas in order to keep the structure alive.

A Structural Theory of Pitch [PDF]
eneuro, 2014 Abstract Musical notes can be ordered from low to high along a perceptual dimension called “pitch”. A characteristic property of these sounds is their periodic waveform, and periodicity generally correlates with pitch. Thus, pitch is often described as the perceptual correlate of the periodicity of the sound’s waveform.

Structural Decision Theory [PDF]
Philosophy of Science, 2021 Judging an act’s causal efficacy plays a crucial role in causal decision theory. A recent development appeals to the causal modeling framework with an emphasis on the analysis of intervention based on the causal Bayes net for clarifying what causally depends on our acts.

Synthesis and Analysis of a Novel Linkage Mechanism with the Helical Motion of the End-Effector
Robotics, 2020 The proposed study is focused on the development of a novel modification of the slider-crank mechanism, the kinematic scheme of which is organized by coupling planar and spatial (screw) kinematic chains.
