Mechanical Criteria for the Preparation of Finite Element Models
The use of CAD in design makes it possible to represent complex components “as manufactured” with a great number of details. A transformation of such models into Finite Elemen...

Quasi-Birth-Death Processes, Tree-Like QBDs, Probabilistic 1-Counter Automata, and Pushdown Systems
We begin by observing that (discrete-time) QuasiBirth-Death Processes (QBDs) are equivalent, in a precise sense, to (discrete-time) probabilistic 1-Counter Automata (p1CAs), and b...
