A Lévy process is said to creep through a curve if, at its first passage time across this curve, the reaches it with positive probability. We study property for bivariate subordinators. Given graph {(t,f(t)):t≥0} of any continuous, non increasing function f such that f(0)>0, we give an expression probability subordinator (Y,Z) issued from 0 creeps in terms renewal and drifts components Y Z. app...

Creeping bentgrass ( Agrostis stolonifera ) is a desirable turfgrass putting green species that susceptible to drought stress. Planting drought-resistant creeping will enhance the resilience of golf turf surfaces, lower required resource inputs, and reduce environmental impact courses. cultivar performance data during stress are needed for informed selection appropriate cultivars. We evaluated ...

the purpose of present research was comparing tendency to risky behaviours in secure/insecure attachment in parents (mother/father). the results showed that those showing insecure attachment patterns towards the mother were significantly higher at risk to become cigarette smokers, drug persuasion, and alcohol drinkers compared to those with secure attachment patterns. those showing insecure att...

Moss (Bryum argenteum) continues to become one of the most problematic weeds in creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris) putting greens. Control of moss can be approached in many different ways, including chemical applications, and cultural practices such as correcting shading or poor drainage. A study was conducted at Springdale Country Club (Springdale, Ark.) to evaluate the effectiveness of s...

We study the creep rupture of fiber composites in the framework of fiber bundle models. Two fiber bundle models are introduced based on different microscopic mechanisms responsible for the macroscopic creep behavior. Analytical and numerical calculations show that above a critical load the deformation of the creeping system monotonically increases in time resulting in global failure at a finite...

INTRODUCTION The reflection and refraction of horizontally polarized shear (SH) waves by a frictional contact interface that can slip has been studied by the present authors [l-3] and Miller [4-6]. If the solids are sheared, the localized slip induced by the waves is more pronounced in one direction than in the other, which leads to the interesting phenomenon of the solids creeping with respect...
