Pokrovskii, Vladimir N. - In: Energy 32 (2007) 5, pp. 816-822

In this paper, methods of separation of primary work EP, which is needed to provide the genuine work of production equipment, from the total amount of primary energy E are proposed. Direct estimates of primary work of production equipment EP on the base of available data for the US economy for...

Infrastructure and the Ruralâ€”urban Divide in High-speed Residential Internet Access

Whitacre, Brian E.; Mills, Bradford F. - In: International Regional Science Review 30 (2007) 3, pp. 249-273

As residential Internet access in the United States shifts toward high-speed connections, a gap has emerged in rural high-speed access relative to urban high-speed access. Potential causes of this high-speed ``digital divide'' include ruralâ€”urban differences in people, place, and...

The Usefulness and Uselessness of the Decomposition of Tobit Coefficients

Kang, Jeong-han - In: Sociological Methods & Research 35 (2007) 4, pp. 572-582

McDonald and Moffitt's (1980) decomposition method for Tobit coefficients disaggregates the total changes in a censored … themselves. McDonald and Moffitt, however, did not highlight two limitations of this decomposition, and sociological applications … of the Tobit decomposition that do not acknowledge these limitations have been misleading. First, the decomposition ratio …

Schwarz methods for discrete elliptic and parabolic problems with an application to nuclear waste repository modelling

Blaheta, R.; Kohut, R.; Neytcheva, M.; Starý, J. - In: Mathematics and Computers in Simulation (MATCOM) 76 (2007) 1, pp. 18-27

The paper is devoted to the numerical solution of both elliptic and parabolic problems by overlapping Schwarz methods. It demonstrates that while the two-level Schwarz method is necessary for the efficient solution of discrete elliptic problems, the one-level Schwarz method can be sufficiently...

FETI-based algorithms for modelling of fibrous composite materials with debonding

Dostál, Zdeněk; Horák, David; Vlach, Oldřich - In: Mathematics and Computers in Simulation (MATCOM) 76 (2007) 1, pp. 57-64

We show how we can exploit our recently proposed algorithms for the solution of contact problem of elasticity to the 2D analysis of the interfacial debonding of samples that consist of several fibres embedded in a homogeneous matrix, aligned in the longitudinal direction. The performance of the...
