Financially, however, Eurotunnel is in "a stable equilibrium of failure," as Richard Shirrefs, the company's chief executive, put it as he proposed yet another restructuring, one that was long on talk and short on details.
The numerical results obtained (equilibrium paths, failure loads and deformed configurations) are presented and discussed, in order to assess the influence of the V-shaped intermediate stiffeners.
However, the penetration depth of the energetic particles is known to have a strong influence on the results of transient heating tests since the temperature is not in equilibrium when failures or significant events occur.
The pure strategy equilibrium without filtering failure is characterized by (theta ^* = frac{1}{2}).
Combining the equilibrium equation and failure criterion, stress for each annulus can be obtained analytically.
The no filtering failure equilibrium (theta ^* = frac{1}{2}) is induced for (beta _1^* = beta _0 + frac{u-r}{2} in (underline{beta }_1, overline{beta }_1)).
As a second consequence of our focus, we restrict our attention to those values of (beta _0) for which a compensation parameter (beta _1^* beta _0)) exists, such that (beta _0) and (beta _1^* beta _0)) induce a no filtering failure equilibrium.
The experimental results, obtained from tests carried out at The University of Hong Kong include initial imperfection measurements, equilibrium paths and failure loads/modes – they provide clear evidence of the above coupling phenomenon.
The experimental results, obtained from the tests carried out at The University of Hong Kong, (i) include initial imperfection measurements, equilibrium paths and failure loads and modes, and (ii) provide evidence of the occurrence of flange-triggered local-distortional interaction.
To increase the effect of our analyses we filtered the data for minor allele frequency, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium deviation, and failure rate (see section Materials and methods).
