Strains are applied to the integration procedure in nonlinear increments todecrease the errors arising from the linearization of plastic equations. Two deformationvectors are used to achieve this. The first vector is based on the deformations obtained bythe first iteration of the equilibrium step, and the second is acquired from the sum of thesucceeding iterations. By applying these vectors and...

Determining how monetary policy makers react to changes in key economic variables has been of major interest to monetary economists. Estimates of monetary policy rules (reaction functions) are a widely used method for doing this. Behavior differs under different policy regimes, as in rule-based systems or chronic inflation. In practice, estimates of instrument rules have been used to descri...

The article provides information on the concept of assessing resource power elements design a specialized armored vehicle during testing and its adjustment to standards NATO member states. It involves implementation simulated mathematical modeling with an evaluation static dynamic characteristics vehicle's structure. When simulating fatigue damage structure, hypothesis linear summation rule is ...

Fatigue design of engineering structures is typically based on lifetime calculation using a cumulative damage law. The linear rule by Miner the universal standard for fatigue even though numerous experimental studies have shown its deficiencies and possible non-conservative outcomes. In an effort to overcome these deficiencies, many nonlinear models life prediction been developed since; however...
