In this paper we present a pattern-based approach for synthesizing truly distributed Petri nets from a class of LTL specifications. The synthesis allows for the automatic, correct generation of humanly conceivable Petri nets, thus circumventing a manual construction of nets, or the use of Büchi automata which are not distributed and often less intuitive to understand.

Displacements around a tunnel, occurring as a result of excavation, consist of the elastic and plastic parts. In this paper, we discuss the elastic part of displacements as a result of excavation, called net displacement. In general, the previous analytical solutions presented for determining the displacements around a circular tunnel in an elastic medium do not give the net displacements...

Abstract This paper examines the effect of mean stress on fatigue behavior very hard carburized steels. Current theories suggest that maximum at limit continuously decreases with decreasing minimum whereas results this study indicate remains constant for stresses less than fully reversed amplitude stress. The theory proposed by authors corrects error maintaining in compressive region.

Let G be a locally compact amenable group, TLIM ( ) the topological left-invariant means on , and 0 limit points of Følner-nets. I show that = unless is σ -compact non-unimodular, in which case ≠ . This improves 1970 result Chou 2009 Hindman Strauss. consider analogous problem for non-topological means, give short construction net converging to invariance “weakly but not strongly,” simplifying ...

It is well known that the out-of-sample performance of Markowitz’s mean-variance portfolio criterion can be negatively affected by estimation errors in the mean and covariance. In this paper we address the problem by regularizing the mean-variance objective function with a weighted elastic net penalty. We show that the use of this penalty can be motivated by a robust reformulation of the mean-v...

abstract wild lettuce (lactuca serriola) is an annual weed with seed reproduction. an experiment was conducted to evaluate some environmental effects on germination and emergence of this weed. the type of design was completely randomized with four replications in which factors were arranged as factorial. the experiment was carried out with 11 cm petri dishes in a germinator (10 °c) and without ...
