Existence of Solutions of Boundary Value Problems for Nonlinear Second Order Systems in a Banach Space
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-03)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: This paper is concerned with the existence of solutions of boundary value problems (BVP, for short) for nonlinear second order ordinary differential equations of ...
On the Existence of Weak Solutions of Differential Equations in Nonreflexive Banach Spaces
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-03)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: The study of the Cauchy problem for differential equations in a Banach space relative to the strong topology has attracted much attention in recent years [2,4,5,7]. ...
Differential Inequalities and Flow-Invariance via Linear Functionals
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-05)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: This paper deals with flow-invariance properties with respect to [see pdf for notation] and resulting comparison inequalities. Both the order relation He and the ...
Interval Estimation of Reliability Characteristics of a k-identical Unit Standby Redundant System
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-02)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Standby redundancy is a method for increasing the reliability of a system through the use of additional "backup" units. Assuming perfect failure-sensing and ...
Stability of Differential Systems with Impulsive Perturbations in Terms of Two Measures
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-01)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: The study of differential systems of the form
(1.1) [see pdf for notation]
where [see pdf for notation] denotes the distributional derivative of [see pdf for ...
Mathematical Analysis of Stress Relaxation in Articular Cartilage During Compression
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-02)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: Articular cartilage is the avascular bearing material covering the articulating ends of the mating bony segments of synovial joints. Functionally articular cartilage ...
Pitman-Closeness Efficiency of Estimators of Reliability with Application to the Exponent/Al Failure Model
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-10)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: When there are available several point estimators of component or system reliability, it would be of interest to compare such estimators through some "closeness to ...
Comparison of Point Estimators of Normal Percentiles
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-08)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: There are available several point estimators of the percentiles
of a normal distribution with both mean and variance unknown. Consequently, it would seam appropriate ...
Infinitely Many Perfect and Unitary Perfect Polynomials Over Some GF(q)
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-05)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: The existence is shown of infinitely many non-splitting perfect polynomials over GF(2d), GF(3d), GF(5d) for each odd integer d > 1, and over GF(2d)
for each (even) ...
The Method of Nonlinear Variation of Constants for Difference Equations
(University of Texas at Arlington, 1977-06)
**Please note that the full text is embargoed** ABSTRACT: A method of nonlinear variation of constants for discrete difference equations is developed, which generalizes a well-known linear variation
of constants formula. ...
