RESEARCH ON DYNAMIC CHARACTERSITICS OF LINE CONTACT FRICTION PAIRS UNDER THERMAL EHL STATE by ZHU AnYuan, FANG CongCong, ZHOU Wei, PENG YongDong

“…The line contact elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) phenomenon generally exists in key parts of mechanical systems e. g. bearings, gears, the lubricant oil film between the contact interfaces acts as a spring and damper, and the frictional heat generated by the contact between the lubricant and the solids changes the rheological properties of the lubricant, then the dynamics characteristics of the contact pair are affected. …”

Instituciones, evolución y delincuencia racional: Hacia una perspectiva posthumeana by José L. Tasset

“…Este trabajo pretende mostrar (1) las líneas generales de la propuesta humeana de una teoría de la evolución de las instituciones en clave utilitarista; (2) en segundo lugar, analizará la objeción interna a esta teoría que supone la existencia de posibles sujetos no cooperadores pero inteligentes (vulneradores racionales de las normas de justicia, de los fundamentos del diseño institucional), (3) en tercer lugar, intentará también defender dicha teoría de la acusación externa de no tener un auténtico carácter normativo; y (4) al no haber desarrollado el propio Hume con detalle su contestación al problema del conflicto Moral/Racionalidad, tal y como surge en el contexto de su discusión de la Knavery, finalmente, y en cuarto lugar, este trabajo, yendo en un cierto sentido algo más allá de lo propuesto por Hume, ensayará un argumento post-humeano en torno a ese conflicto, basado, por una parte, en el reconocimiento de la multidimensionalidad de la Moral, así como en la paralela aceptación de la necesidad de un ajuste contextual de ésta, asentado sobre consideraciones primaria, que no exclusivamente, utilitaristas.…”

Research on Ecological Compensation Game Model Based on the Willingness Distribution Function by MU Guiling, WANG Jianguo, XIE Yuning, HUANG Wen, QIN Xiaohui

“…In order to improve the scientificity and rationality of the accounting method of eco-compensation standard,based on the existing accounting methods and game model theory,and combined with the research and analysis results of downstream water receiving areas willingness to pay and water source protection areas willingness to accept,an ecological compensation game model based on the willingness distribution function is proposed.This Model generalizes the willingness density function into an exponential distribution through the research results,and considers both the probability of water source protection area to accept an offer (or charge) and the water receiving area to offer (or accept a charge),which reflects the essence of both the water receiving area and water source protection area to pursue the maximization of their own interests,that is,the higher the offer,the more likely the offer will be accepted.Under the condition that the actual willingness to accept of the water source protection area is known,the water receiving area will raise its offer on the premise of guaranteeing its own interests to reach an agreement as soon as possible.Compared with the original game model,this Model overcomes the shortcoming of the original game model which assumes that the willingness to accept of water source protection area is uniformly distributed,and takes the distribution of willingness to pay of water receiving area into account.The improved game model combines the theoretical basis with the actual investigation,so its result is more reliable.…”

Strategies of China and India in the Indo-Pacific region by E. S. Karsanova
