In this note we develop tools to study the Cauchy problem for the system of thermo-elasticity in higher dimensions. The theory is developed for general homogeneous anisotropic media under non-degeneracy conditions. For degenerate cases a method of treatment is sketched and for the cases of cubic media and hexagonal media detailed studies are provided.

A layer of compressible, rotating, elastico-viscous fluid of related density heated & soluted from below is considered in the presence of vertical magnetic field to include the effect of Hall currents. Dispersion relation governing the effect of visco-elasticity, salinity gradient, rotation, magnetic field and Hall currents is derived. For the case of stationary convection, the Rivlin-Erickson ...

The generalized nested logit model is a new member of the generalized extreme value family of models. The GNL provides a higher degree of flexibility in the estimation of substitution or cross-elasticity between pairs of alternatives than previously developed generalized extreme value models. The generalized nested logit model includes the paired combinatorial logit and cross-nested logit model...

A comprehensive computational framework based on the finite element method for the simulation of coupled hygro-thermo-mechanical problems in photovoltaic laminates is herein proposed. While the thermo-mechanical problem takes place in the three-dimensional space of the laminate, moisture diffusion occurs in a two-dimensional domain represented by the polymeric layers and by the vertical channel...

The concept of representative crack elements has been successfully introduced to phase-field fracture in previous publications, where anisotropic elasticity [1], visco-elasticity [2], elasto-plasticity and surface friction [3] are considered at small deformations. This framework allows overcome unrealistic predictions for the kinematics, reported e.g. Strobl Seelig [4], Steinke Kaliske [5], kno...
