Hybrid Hamilton-Webster and the Greek apportionment
The method of largest remainders (Hamilton) is used for allotment of 288 of the seats among the 56 Greek constituencies. This method possesses various paradoxes as was observed through two centuries of application. So we propose a modification where the seats are allocated at a first stage by the lower Hare-Quota and the additional ones using the method of major fractions (Webster) restricted s...
متن کاملbuckling of viscoelastic composite plates using the finite strip method
در سال های اخیر، تقاضای استفاده از تئوری خطی ویسکوالاستیسیته بیشتر شده است. با افزایش استفاده از کامپوزیت های پیشرفته در صنایع هوایی و همچنین استفاده روزافزون از مواد پلیمری، اهمیت روش های دقیق طراحی و تحلیل چنین ساختارهایی بیشتر شده است. این مواد جدید از خودشان رفتارهای مکانیکی ارائه می دهند که با تئوری های الاستیسیته و ویسکوزیته، نمی توان آن ها را توصیف کرد. این مواد، خواص ویسکوالاستیک دارند....
ME-OWA based DEMATEL reliability apportionment method
The maximal entropy ordered weighted averaging (ME-OWA)-based decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method for reliability allocation has been examined. The assessment results show that most conventional reliability allocation methods have five fundamental problems. The first problem is the measurement scale; while the second problem is that the system allocation factors are...
متن کاملThe Hamilton Apportionment Method Is Between the Adams Method and the Jefferson Method
The Adams apportionment method is the only divisor method that consistently favors small districts relative to the Hamilton method. The Jefferson method is the only divisor method that favors large districts relative to the Hamilton method. These statements hold for the Balinski and Young [3] interpretation of "favoring small/large districts," and for the partial "majorization ranking" introduc...
متن کاملThe Webster Equation Revisited1
The problem of low-frequency sound propagation in slowly varying ducts is systematically analysed as a perturbation problem of slow variation. The Webster equation and some variants are derived, and the entrance/exit plane boundary layer is given. It is shown why a varying lined duct in general does not have a solution.
