Fatigue Behavior of Composite Sandwich Panels Under Three Point Bending Load

In this paper, the bending fatigue tests of honeycomb sandwich panels are carried out by using an improved three-point bending test fixture, and the S-N curves at different stress ratios are obtained. Through the records of fatigue damage in the experiment, the failure mode of the honeycomb sandwich panels and the source of fatigue damage are determined. At the same time, through the calculation of the shear stress distribution on the honeycomb wall, the reasons for the difference in the failure morphology of the L-direction and W-direction sandwich panels are clarified. Besides, a life prediction method is proposed and its effectiveness in predicting the fatigue life of sandwich panels has been verified.     

The valuation of life contingencies: A symmetrical triangular fuzzy approximation

This paper extends the framework for the valuation of life insurance policies and annuities by Andrés-Sánchez and González-Vila (2012, 2014) in two ways. First we allow various uncertain magnitudes to be estimated by means of fuzzy numbers. This applies not only to interest rates but also to the amounts to be paid out by the insurance company. Second, the use of symmetrical triangular fuzzy numbers allows us to obtain expressions for the pricing of life contingencies and their variability that are closely linked to standard financial and actuarial mathematics. Moreover, they are relatively straightforward to compute and understand from a standard actuarial point of view.     

Exponential moments of first passage times and related quantities for Lévy processes

For a Lévy process on the real line, we provide complete criteria for the finiteness of exponential moments of the first passage time into the interval , the sojourn time in the interval , and the last exit time from . Moreover, whenever these quantities are finite, we derive their respective asymptotic behavior as .

Another characterization of homogeneous Poisson processes

For a general renewal process N (allowing delay, defect and multiple simultaneous arrivals) the independence of the first renewal epochs of the marked processes got from N by Bernoulli 0/1 thinning is characterized. This independence is well-known to hold true in the case of homogeneous Poisson processes; by way of corollary one obtains the interesting observation that, when coupled with some minimal extra conditions, it in fact already identifies them. The proof is analytic in character.     

On the poisson output of queueing systems with dependent service times

In this paper a method is stated to conclude that the output of given queueing system is POISSON from the steady-state probabilities and from the behavior of the queueing system at jump epochs, i.e. at epochs when the system state can be changed. The corresponding statement for queueing systems described by Markov processes with denumber-able state space will be generalized to systems which can have arbitrary service time distributions if the steady-state probabilities are insensitive with respect to these distributions.     

Study on supported combined liquid membrane containing HEH（EH）P and HNO3 for trivalent gadolinium transfer

A novel kind of supported combined liquid membrane（SCLM） has been studied for the Gd（Ⅲ） transfer.SCLM contained polyvinylidene fluoride membrane（PVDF） as the liquid membrane support and renewal solution including HNO₃ solution as the stripping solution and 2-ethyl hexyl phosphonic acid-mono-2-ethyl hexyl ester（HEH（EH）P） as the carrier dissolved in kerosene. The mixed solution of carrier and kerosene was membrane solution.The optimum transport conditions of Gd（Ⅲ） were that concentration of HNO₃ solution was 4.00 mol/L,concentration of carrier was 0.16 mol/L,and volume ratio of membrane solution to stripping solution was 30:30 of the renewal phase,and pH value was 4.80 of the feed phase.Under the optimum condition studied, when initial concentration of Gd（Ⅲ） was 1.00×10^-4 mol/L,the transfer rate of Gd（Ⅲ） was 96.8%during 130 min.
