A Foundation for Support Theory Based on a Non-Boolean Event Space
نویسنده
چکیده
A new foundation is presented for the theory of subjective judgments of probability known in the psychological literature as “Support Theory.” It is based on new complementation operations that, unlike those of classical probability theory (set-theoretic complementation) and classical logic (negation), need not satisfy the principles of the Law Of The Excluded Middle and the Law of Double Complementation. Interrelationships between the new complementation operations and the Kahneman and Tversky judgmental heuristic of availability are described.

Nonlinear Buckling of Circular Nano Plates on Elastic Foundation
The following article investigates nonlinear symmetric buckling of moderately thick circular Nano plates with an orthotropic property under uniform radial compressive in-plane mechanical load. Taking into account Eringen nonlocal elasticity theory, principle of virtual work, first order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT) and nonlinear Von-Karman strains, the governing equations are obtained ...
متن کاملFilter theory in MTL-algebras based on Uni-soft property
The notion of (Boolean) uni-soft filters in MTL-algebras is introduced, and several properties of them are investigated. Characterizations of (Boolean) uni-soft filters are discussed, and some (necessary and sufficient) conditions for a uni-soft filter to be Boolean are provided. The condensational property for a Boolean uni-soft filter is established.
متن کاملA Non-linear Static Equivalent Model for Multi-layer Annular/Circular Graphene Sheet Based on Non-local Elasticity Theory Considering Third Order Shear Deformation Theory in Thermal Environment
In this paper, it is tried to find an approximate single layer equivalent for multi-layer graphene sheets based on third order non-local elasticity theory. The plates are embedded in two parameter Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation, and also the thermal effects are considered. A uniform transverse load is imposed on the plates. Applying the non-local theory of Eringen based on third order she...
متن کاملTopological and Orthomodular Modeling of Context in Behavioral Science
Two non-boolean methods are discussed for modeling context in behavioral data and theory. The first is based on intuitionistic logic, which is similar to classical logic except that not every event has a complement. Its probability theory is also similar to classical probability theory except that the definition of probability function needs to be generalized to unions of events instead of appl...
متن کاملStatic Analysis of Functionally Graded Annular Plate Resting on Elastic Foundation Subject to an Axisymmetric Transverse Load Based on the Three Dimensional Theory of Elasticity
In this paper, static analysis of functionally graded annular plate resting on elastic foundation with various boundary conditions is carried out by using a semi-analytical approach (SSM-DQM). The differential governing equations are presented based on the three dimensional theory of elasticity. The plate is assumed isotropic at any point, while material properties to vary exponentially thro...
