(Vanderbilt University, 2007)This paper studies a flexible price version of the Prescott (1975) hotels model. Unlike rigid price versions of the model, here the equilibrium outcome is efficient if potential buyers have the same downward sloping demand ...
-
(2012-07-18)Department: Electrical EngineeringSingle Events Upsets (SEU) have long been a concern of the space and aviation fields. An SEU occurs when the logic state of a data-storage element in an integrated circuit changes because of the charge generated by a ...

Efficient Development of Electronic Health Record Based Algorithms to Identify Rheumatoid Arthritis (2011-10-21)Department: Biomedical InformaticsElectronic Health Records (EHRs) are valuable tools in clinical and genomic research, providing the ability to generate large patient cohorts for study. Traditionally, EHR-based research is carried out through manual review ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2004)We propose a sieve maximum likelihood (ML) estimation procedure for a broad class of semiparametric multivariate distribution models. A joint distribution in this class is characterized by a parametric copula function ...

(2010-07-13)Department: Civil EngineeringThis study is concerned with the accurate prediction of response of structural components under mechanical loads in the presence of various types of irregularities in homogeneous as well as inhomogeneous systems like ...
-
(2008-08-03)Department: Civil EngineeringAn efficient response surface construction method for fatigue life prediction is investigated in this study, based on the Gaussian process (GP) modeling approach. The model is applied to fatigue crack growth analysis, in ...
-
(Vanderbilt University, 2002)For exchange economies with classical economic preferences, it is shown that any strategy-proof social choice function that selects Pareto optimal outcomes cannot guarantee everyone a consumption bundle bounded away from ...
-
(2010-04-17)Department: Civil EngineeringReliability analysis is critically important to a wide array of engineering fields that increasingly depend on computational models to predict system performance. However, previously available methods for performing this ...
-
(2013-07-29)Department: ChemistryThe furanocembranoids are a family of natural products generated from oxidation and polycyclization of well-established terpene frameworks. The biosynthesis of these metabolites involves oxidative installation of butenolide ...
-
(2023-06-02)Department: ChemistryEverninomicin D is a potent orthosomycin antibiotic that has a unique binding site on the 50S ribosome allowing it to inhibit protein synthesis without any cross-resistance due to other ribosome-targeting antibiotics. The ...
