Abortion Legalization and Child Living Circumstances: Who is the "Marginal Child?" [PDF]
We estimate the impact of changes in abortion access in the early 1970s on the average living standards of cohorts born in those years. In particular, we address the selection inherent in the abortion decision: is the marginal child who is not born when ...

The effects of third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT) and varied linear shear correction coefficient on the vibration frequency of thick functionally graded material (FGM) plates with fully homogeneous equations under thermal environment and power law are investigated. The nonlinear coefficient c_1 term of displacement field of TSDT is included in
