1995 Frank Nelson Cole Prize in Algebra

The Frank Nelson Cole Prize in Algebra is awarded every five years for a notable research memoir in algebra which has appeared in the previous five years. This prize and the Frank Nelson Cole Prize in Number Theory were established in honor of Professor Frank Nelson Cole, who served as secretary of the AMS from 1896 to 1920 and also served as editor-in-chief of the Bulletin for twenty-one years...

The fall of tsarism in Russia in 1917 was the culmination of many factors. It is perhaps widely noted that Nicholas II was not suited to his role as Tsar, mainly due to his character and personality. Resentment of his wife and her involvement with the mystical Rasputin was also widespread and helped contribute to the collapse of the monarchy. Also the state of the country during World War One l...

Numerical extraction of Cole-Cole impedance parameters from step response

In this paper we propose a numerical method to extract the four parameters (Ro, R∞, C, and α) that characterize a single-dispersion Cole-Cole impedance model from its step response, based on modelling the step response using fractional calculus, without requiring direct measurement of the real and imaginary impedance parts. MATLAB simulations using Cole-Cole impedances of fruit tissues with α <...
