Abstract The present paper proposes shrinkage testimator(s) for the scale parameter for an exponential distribution. An important feature of the proposed testimator is that, it removes the arbitrariness in the choice of shrinkage factor (weights) by making it dependent on the test statistic. The risk properties of the proposed testimator(s) have been studied under asymmetric loss function. It h...

In present study, the third-order shear deformation theory has been developed to investigate vibration analysis of FG Nano-plates based on Eringen nonlocal elasticity theory. The materials distribution regarding to the thickness of Nano-plate has been considered based on two different models of power function and exponential function. All equations governing on the vibration of FG Nano-plate ha...
