this article analyses the effects of post-zionism in israeli ,society and state. by using the discoursive analysis in social theory, the author argues that discourses such as post-zionism are the results of socio-political and economic conditions (processes), but their evolution is basically the result of the mental and value activities of their proponent, rather than the socio-political proces...

We introduce LAMP: the Linear Additive Markov Process. Transitions in LAMP may be influenced by states visited in the distant history of the process, but unlike higher-order Markov processes, LAMP retains an efficient parameterization. LAMP also allows the specific dependence on history to be learned efficiently from data. We characterize some theoretical properties of LAMP, including its stead...

this paper presents a control model of the hydroforming and the dual hydroforming process of atube. the theoretical part includes calculations to measure the change in tube thickness through thedeveloped process. the hydroforming and the dual hydroforming processes are simulated in thesolidsimulation software and the static and the dynamic simulations are modeled. theobtained results for the t-...

We consider the sets of moving-average and autoregressive processes and study their closures under the Mallows metric and the total variation convergence on nite dimensional distributions. These closures are unexpectedly large, containing nonergodic processes which are Poisson sums of i.i.d. copies from a stationary process. The presence of these non-ergodic Poisson sum processes has immediate ...

Diffusion processes are often regarded as among the more abstruse stochastic processes, but diffusion processes are actually relatively elementary, and thus are natural first candidates to consider in queueing applications. To help demonstrate the advantages of diffusion processes, we show that there is a large class of one-dimensional diffusion processes for which it is possible to give conven...

In this paper, semi-analytical method for asymmetrical eccentrically stiffened FGM cylindrical shells under external pressure and surrounded by a linear and non-linear elastic foundation is presented. The proposed linear model is based on two parameter elastic foundation Winkler and Pasternak. According to the von Karman nonlinear equations and the classical plate theory of shells, strain-displ...
