Ruin probability in the three-seasonal discrete-time risk model

Modern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2015
This paper deals with the discrete-time risk model with nonidentically distributed claims. We suppose that the claims repeat with time periods of three units, that is, claim distributions coincide at times $\{1,4,7,\dots \}$, at times $\{2,5,8,\dots \}$,

OPTIMAL POLICIES FOR DISCRETE TIME RISK PROCESSES WITH A MARKOV CHAIN INVESTMENT MODEL [PDF]

We consider a discrete risk process modelled by a Markov Decision Process. The surplus could be invested in stock market assets. We adopt a realistic point of view and we let the investment return process to be statistically dependent over time.

Composites of Shellac and Silver Nanowires as Flexible, Biobased, and Corrosion‐Resistant Transparent Conductive Electrodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...

Virginia Woolf’s Ruined House, a Literary Complex

Études Britanniques Contemporaines, 2012
Virginia Woolf’s central section in To the Lighthouse hinges upon the oxymoric nature of ruin, and ponders over disappearance. The family house is victim of a time that passes irremediably, yet remains and endures. In Woolf’s ‘elegy’, the Ramsays’ ruined

Mechanical Properties of Architected Polymer Lattice Materials: A Comparative Study of Additive Manufacturing and CAD Using FEM and µ‐CT

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines how pore shape and manufacturing‐induced deviations affect the mechanical properties of 3D‐printed lattice materials with constant porosity. Combining µ‐CT analysis, FEM, and compression testing, the authors show that structural imperfections reduce stiffness and strength, while bulk material inhomogeneities probably enhance ...

Spleen‐Targeting Biomimetic Hybrid Nanocarriers for Systemic Immune Reprogramming in Colitis: RBC Membrane Vesicle‐Fused Lipid Nanoparticles

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A spleen‐targeting hybrid nanoplatform (RBCMV‐LNP‐RP) harnessing erythrophagocytosis mimics senescent red blood cell clearance to achieve spleen‐specific delivery of rapamycin. This biomimetic system enables selective accumulation in splenic macrophages, orchestrating systemic immune reprogramming and promoting mucosal healing in an inflammatory bowel ...

The finite-time ruin probabilities of a dependent bidimensional risk model with subexponential claims and Brownian perturbations

Nonlinear Analysis
The paper considers a dependent bidimensional risk model with stochastic return and Brownian perturbations in which the price processes of the investment portfolio of the two lines of business are two geometric Lévy processes, and the claim-number ...

Dependent discrete risk processes –calculation of the probability of ruin [PDF]

This paper is devoted to discrete processes of dependent risks. The random variables describing the time between claims can be dependent in such processes, unlike under the classical approach.

In Situ Study of Resistive Switching in a Nitride‐Based Memristive Device

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In situ TEM biasing experiment demonstrates the volatile I‐V characteristic of MIM lamella device. In situ STEM‐EELS Ti L2/L3 ratio maps provide direct evidence of the oxygen vacancies migrations under positive/negative electrical bias, which is critical for revealing the RS mechanism for the MIM lamella device.

Modelling of Risk Process With Expense-Augmented Loss Under Economic Factors and Its Application to Aggregated General Insurance Data in Kenya

International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences
In this paper, we reformulate the classical risk model to consider economic factors such as taxation and real force of interest. In the model, the premiums are assumed to be compounded by increasing annuities over some time.
