Hyperbolic position bounding of malicious devices aims to estimate the location of a wireless network rogue insider that transmits an attack message containing falsified information to mislead honest nodes. A probabilistic path loss model is used to construct an area in Euclidian space bounded by minimum and maximum distance difference hyperbolas between each pair of trusted receivers. This hyp...

A macroscopic model describing nonlinear viscoelastic waves is derived in Eulerian formulation, through the introduction of relaxation tensors. It accounts for both constitutive and geometrical nonlinearities. In case small deformations, governing equations recover those linear generalized Zener (GZM) with memory variables, which widely used acoustics seismology. The structure terms implies tha...

We propose that a simple "dual-self" model gives a unified explanation for several empirical regularities, including the apparent time inconsistency that has motivated models of quasi-hyperbolic discounting and Rabin’s paradox of risk aversion in the large and small. The model also implies that self-control costs imply excess delay, as in the O'Donoghue and Rabin models of quasi-hyperbolic util...

This manuscript gives an overview of a new framework for modelling multi-component, mesh-like structures such as cardiovascular (endovascular) stents. By using dimension reduction and multi-scale approaches, a metallic, multi-component, mesh-like structure is described by a mathematical model which is in the form of a hyperbolic net problem. This contrasts classical approaches in bioengineering...
