In this paper, the authors have analyzed the quasi-static frictional sliding of a springblock slider system under the Rate-State Friction (RSF) formalism with three state variables. The study of 3-state RSF systems have not been carried out in the literature, the authors claim that this warrants the study of mechanical behavior of such systems. I feel that that this is not justifiable scientifi...

Rational people tend to be more predictable and, therefore, understandable. Understanding a decision makes it easier for me to accept it. When I encounter and interact with agents on the Web, or when my own ag...

Ellsberg (1961) designed a decision experiment where most people violated the axioms of rational choice. He asked people to bet on the outcome of certain random events with known and with unknown probabilities. They usually preferred to bet on events with known probabilities. It is shown that this behavior is reasonable and in accordance with the axioms of rational decision making if it is assu...
