In this paper vibration of ferromagnetic rectangular plates which are subjected to an inclined magnetic field is investigated based on classical plate theory and Maxwell equations. Levy type solution and Finite element method using Comsol software are used to obtain the frequency of the plate subjected to different boundary conditions, good agreements is obtained when computed results are compa...

In this study, the design of a flexible cable–strut tensile structure was optimised according to importance elements achieve high structural robustness. First, coefficients were determined by comparing their prefailure and postfailure strain energy. Moreover, effects external load, initial prestress, cross-sectional areas on analysed. Second, genetic algorithm used optimise element section mini...

The objective of this paper is to present comprehensive lists accurate natural frequencies isotropic thin rectangular plates. For purpose, a simple yet very analytical approach described study the free vibration In numerical computations, convergence and comparison studies are conducted check accuracy solution demonstrate improvement solutions in results. Twenty-one tables then provided give lo...

In the present study, a spectral finite element method is developed for free and forced transverse vibration of Levy-type moderately thick rectangular orthotropic plates based on first-order shear deformation theory. Levy solution assumption was used to convert the two-dimensional problem into a one-dimensional problem. In the first step, the governing out-of-plane differential equations are tr...

We propose the model, which allows us to approximate fractional Levy noise and fractional Levy motion. Our model is based (i) on the Gnedenko limit theorem for an attraction basin of stable probability law, and (ii) on regarding fractional noise as the result of fractional integration/differentiation of a white Levy noise. We investigate self-affine properties of the approximation and conclude ...

Levy and Levy (Management Science 2002) present data that, according to their claims, violate prospect theory. They suggest that prospect theory’s hypothesis of an S-shaped value function, concave for gains and convex for losses, is incorrect. However, all the data of Levy and Levy are perfectly consistent with the predictions of prospect theory, as can be verified by simply applying prospect t...
