In this paper, a size-dependent formulation for the Bernoulli-Euler beam is developed based on a new model of couple stress theory presented by Hadjesfandiari and Dargush. The constitutive equation obtained in this new model, consists of only one length scale parameter that is capable of capturing the micro-structural size effect in predicting the mechanical behavior of the structure. Having on...

A decision-maker is utility-sophisticated if he ranks acts according to their expected utility whenever such comparisons are meaningful. We characterize utility sophistication in cases in which probabilistic beliefs are not too imprecise, and show that in these cases utility-sophisticated preferences are completely determined by consequence utilities and event attitudes captured by preferences ...

The idea of expected utility, to transform payments into their utilities before calculating expectation, traces back at least to Bernoulli (1738). It is a very natural idea to transform, analogously, probabilities. This paper gives heuristic visual arguments to showthat the, at first sight, natural way to do this, at second thought seems questionable. At second thought a sound and natural way i...

It has long been argued that there is a mismatch between the general motivation provided for Nash’s (1950) axioms and their actual mathematical content because they are phrased in the space of joint (Bernoulli) utilities. Alternatively, it is easy to rephrase these axioms in an economic environment so as to match their intuitive meaning, but Nash’s proof then applies only if one adds a cardinal...

Using the Padé approximation of the exponential function, we obtain recurrence relations between Apostol-Bernoulli and between Apostol-Euler polynomials. As applications, we derive some new lacunary recurrence relations for Bernoulli and Euler polynomials with gap of length 4 and lacunary relations for Bernoulli and Euler numbers with gap of length 6.

We investigate some algorithms that produce Bernoulli, Euler and Genocchi polynomials. We also give closed formulas for Bernoulli, Euler and Genocchi polynomials in terms of weighted Stirling numbers of the second kind, which are extensions of known formulas for Bernoulli, Euler and Genocchi numbers involving Stirling numbers of the second kind.

Non-prismatic beams have received great attention from engineers due to their capability in optimizing the strength and weight of the structure. In recent years, many researchers have worked on engineering problems related to static and dynamic analysis of either Euler–Bernoulli [1–3] or Timoshenko [4,5] beams. For short thick beams and rotating machineries, the Timoshenko beam theory presents ...
