About the properties of a modified generalized Beverton-Holt equation in ecology models
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2008)
This paper is devoted to the study of a generalized modified version of the well-known Beverton-Holt equation in ecology. The proposed model describes the population evolution of some species in a certain habitat driven ...
Basque inshore skippers' long term behaviour: a logit approach
(EDP Sciences, 2008)
Based on the discrete optimal choice theory and a random utility model (RUM) framework, this paper focuses on the firm's long-term choices.A behavioural study on the stay and exit decisions of the fishing firms belonging ...
Birth weight and blood lipid levels in Spanish adolescents: Influence of selected APOE, APOC3 and PPARgamma2 gene polymorphisms. The AVENA Study
(BioMed Central, 2008-11-10)
Background: There is increasing evidence indicating that genes involved in certain metabolic processes of cardiovascular diseases may be of particular influence in people with low body weight at birth. We examined whether ...
Model-matching-based control of the Beverton-Holt equation in Ecology
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2008)
Beverton-Holt equation of Ecology has a prescribed solution. The way used to achieve the tracking objective is the design of a carrying capacity through a feedback law so that the prescribed reference sequence, which defines ...
Stability Results for Switched Linear Systems with Constant Discrete Delays
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2008)
This paper investigates the stability properties of switched systems possessing several parameterizations (or configurations) while being subject to internal constant point delays. Some of the stability results are formulated ...
On the Global Asymptotic Stability of Switched Linear Time-Varying Systems with Constant Point Delays
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2008)
This paper investigates the asymptotic stability of switched linear time-varying systems with constant point delays under not very stringent conditions on the matrix functions of parameters. Such conditions are their ...
About Robust Stability of Dynamic Systems with Time Delays through Fixed Point Theory
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2008)
This paper investigates the global asymptotic stability independent of the sizes of the delays of linear time-varying systems with internal point delays which possess a limiting equation via fixed point theory. The error ...
Evaluation of the conventional surveying equipment applied to deformation analysis of heritage buildings. A case study: the bell tower of Santa María la Blanca church in Agoncillo (La Rioja, Spain)
(International Federation of Surveyors (FIG), 2008-05)
[EN] A typical feature of heritage buildings is their fragility that is displayed by means of several pathologies such as wall sloping or cracks. Although there are some model projects on monitoring, they are usually ...
Social Security, Education, Retirement and Growth
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2008-02)
In this paper we analyze the effects of social security policies in an unfunded, earnings-related social security system on the incentives to education investment and voluntary retirement, on growth and on income inequality. ...
The Comovement between Monetary and Fiscal Policy Instruments during the Post-War Period in the U.S.
(University of the Basque Country, Department of Foundations of Economic Analysis II, 2008-04)
This paper empirically studies the dynamic relationship between monetary and fiscal policies by analyzing the comovements between the Fed funds rate and the primary deficit/output ratio. Simple economic thinking establishes ...
