A critical analysis of the Mises stress criterion used in frequency domain fatigue life prediction by Adam Niesłony

“…In the present study four aspects were discussed: influence of the value of fatigue strength of tension and torsion, lack of parallelism of the SN curves, abnormal behaviour of the criterion under biaxial tensioncompression and influence of phase shift between particular stress state components. Information contained in this article will help to prevent improper use of this criterion and contributes to its better understanding…”

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes Stories: Crime and Mystery from the Text to the Illustrations by Christophe Gelly

“…This essay argues that the illustrations provided for the serial publication of the Sherlock Holmes stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle—mainly by Sidney Paget—constitute a significant supplement that both illustrates common ideological prejudices of the nineteenth century and undermines any complete containment of evil and crime by the investigator. …”

Factorization of k-quasihyponormal operators by S. C. Arora, J. K. Thukral

“…Let A be the class of all operators T on a Hilbert space H such that R(T*kT), the range space of T*KT, is contained in R(T*k+1), for a positive integer k. It has been shown that if T ϵ A, there exists a unique operator CT on H such that (i)         T*kT=T*k+1CT ;(ii)        ‖CT‖2=inf{μ:μ≥0  and  (T*kT)(T*kT)*≤μT*k+1T*k+1} ;(iii)       N(CT)=N(T*kT) and(iv)       R(CT)⫅R(T*k+1)¯ The main objective of this paper is to characterize k-quasihyponormal; normal, and self-adjoint operators T in A in terms of CT. …”

Fast Computation of Singular Oscillatory Fourier Transforms by Hongchao Kang, Xinping Shao

“…Based on substituting the original interval of integration by the paths of steepest descent, if f is analytic in the complex region G containing [a, b], the computation of integrals can be transformed into the problems of integrating two integrals on [0, ∞) with the integrand that does not oscillate and decays exponentially fast, which can be efficiently computed by using the generalized Gauss Laguerre quadrature rule. …”

Global and Local Structures of Bifurcation Curves of ODE with Nonlinear Diffusion by Tetsutaro Shibata

“…This equation is related to the mathematical model of animal dispersal and invasion, and λ is parameterized by the maximum norm α=uλ∞ of the solution uλ associated with λ and is written as λ=λ(α). Since f(u) contains both power nonlinear term u2n-k-1 and oscillatory term sin⁡u, it seems interesting to investigate how the shape of λ(α) is affected by f(u). …”

Racial Authoritarian Preemption and the Politics of Tennessee by Sekou Franklin

“…Three components of racial authoritarian preemption are examined: anti-federal nullification, administrative fiefdoms, and municipal containment. I focus on the period of 2010–2024, when the Tennessee legislature was captured by conservative Republicans, who then used preemption to revoke locally based civil rights, racial equity initiatives, and redistributive measures championed by minoritized communities. …”
