In this paper, the mechanical behavior of three-phase inhomogeneous materials is modeled using the meso-scale model with lattice beams for static and dynamic analyses. The Timoshenko beam theory is applied instead of the classical Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and the mechanical properties of lattice beam connection are derived based on the continuum medium using the non-local continuum theory. T...

the complete 3d nonlinear dynamic problem of extensible, flexible risers conveying fluid is considered. for describing the dynamics of the system, the newtonian derivation procedure is followed. the velocity field inside the pipe formulated using hydrostatic and bernoulli equations. the hydrodynamic effects of external fluids are taken into consideration through the nonlinear drag forces in var...

Using the integral expression of Mathieu's series and some integral and analytic inequalities involving periodic functions and the generating function of Bernoulli numbers, we present several new inequalities and estimates for Mathieu's series and generalize Math-ieu's series. Two open problems are proposed.

Scan statistics have been widely applied to test for unusual cluster of events in many scientific areas. It has been of practical interest on how to select the window size of a scan statistic. An adaptive procedure for multiple window scan statistics is proposed and the distributions are studied for independent identically distributed Bernoulli trials and uniform observations on (0, 1) in one-d...

Using Szenes formula for multiple Bernoulli series, we explain how to compute Witten series associated to classical Lie algebras. Particular instances of these series compute volumes of moduli spaces of flat bundles over surfaces, and also multiple zeta values.

We discuss the asymptotic expansions of certain products of Bernoulli numbers and factorials, e.g., n ∏

In [7] we further proved that H1(p−1) ≡ 0 (mod p ) if and only if p divides the numerator of Bp−3, which never happens for primes less than 12 million [2]. There is another important equivalent statement of Wolstenholme’s Theorem by using combinatorics. D.F. Bailey [1] generalizes it to the following form. Theorem 1.1. ([1, Theorem 4]) Let n and r be non-negative integers and p ≥ 5 be a prime. ...

PrQcedures are exhibited and analyzed for converting a sequence of iid Bernoulli variables with unknown mean p into a Bernoulli variable with mean 1/2. The efficiency of several procedures is studied.
