متن کاملAssessment of different methods for fatigue life prediction of steel in rotating bending and axial loading
Generally, fatigue failure in an element happens at the notch on a surface where the stress level rises because of the stress concentration effect. The present paper investigates the effect of a notch on the fatigue life of the HSLA100 (high strength low alloy) steel which is widely applicable in the marine industry. Tensile test was conducted on specimens and mechanical properties were obtain...
متن کاملThe Weakest Link: Managing Risk Through Interdependent Strategies
Networks increase interdependencies and this creates challenges for managing risks. This is especially apparent in areas such as security and enterprise risk management, where the actions of a single player in an interconnected network can wreak havoc on everyone in the network. The network, in this case, is only as strong as its weakest link. There are related problems in encouraging investmen...
متن کاملStrategic Voting in TV Game Show “The Weakest Link” By
This paper utilizes the data generated from Television game shows The Weakest Link to study real life strategic voting with large stake payoffs. Theoretical models are built to analyze the three-player voting possibly with second move of tie breaker. With reasonable specifications, equilibria can be constructed to support all observed outcomes. When the game structure is relatively simple with ...
متن کاملWeakest Link Models for Detecting Small Groups of Genes to Predict Lung Cancer Survival
In this paper, we describe a meta-analysis of four lung cancer survival data sets, with the goal of detecting gene interactions affecting survival. The analysis uses the weakest link family of statistical models, a novel class of models for survival analysis that incorporate a useful type of biological interaction among quantitative gene expression levels. A weakest link type of biological inte...
