one of the new research fields in plasticity is related to choosing a proper non-associated flow rule (nafr), instead of the associated one (afr), to predict the experimental results more accurately. the idea of the current research is derived from combining von mises and tresca criteria in the places of yield and plastic potential surfaces in rate-independent plasticity.  this idea is implemen...

In this paper we study a queueing system with state-dependent services and state-dependent vacations, or simply G/M(n)/1/K. Since the service rate is state-dependent, this system includes G/M/c and G/M/c/K queues with various types of station vacations as special cases. We provide a recursive algorithm using the supplementary variable technique to numerically compute the stationary queue length...

in this paper, a general elastoplastic-damage constitutive model considering the effect of strain rate has been developed. the derivation of this model has been cast into the irreversible thermodynamics with internal variables within the fundamentals of continuum damage mechanics (cdm). the rate effect has been involved as an additional term into the plastic yield surface (dynamic plastic yield...

Abstract The aim of the paper is to compare forecasting performance a class statedependent autoregressive (SDAR) models for univariate time series with two alternative families nonlinear models, such as SETAR and GARCH models. study conducted on US GDP growth rate using quarterly data. Two methods forecast comparison are employed. first method consists in evaluation average by measures root mea...

Impulsive control strategies have been widely used in cancer treatment and linear impulsive has always considered previous studies. We propose a novel tumour-immune model with nonlinear killing rate as state-dependent feedback control, which can better reflect the saturation effects of tumour immune cell mortalities due to chemotherapy, its dynamic behaviors are investigated. The paper aims dis...
