Gordon and Shortliffe
[2]
advocate the use of Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory in the evidencegathering process. It is stated that they are unaware of any formal model which could allow inexact reasoning at whatever level of abstraction. Pearl [3] later shows how evidential reasoning can be conducted in the same hypothesis space using a Bayesian model. The purpose of this note is to examine the difference between these two schemes, and to point out certain inconsistencies of this Bayesian model with the motives behind the use of the D-S model.

The order three superharmonic resonance in the harmonically excited Duffing oscillator with hardening non-linearity is considered. The second order perturbation solutions determined by the multiple scales and frequency-damping expansion methods are compared with each other, and with the exact numeri
Galerkin and Petrov Galerkin linite element mellods are used to obtain new linite difference schemes for the solution of linear twodimensional convection difusion problems. Numerical estimates are made of the rates of convergence of these schemes, uniformly with respect to the perturbation parameter
In many geophysical fluid modeling applications there exist two very different time scales, essentially fast waves and slow vortices. At the largest planetary scales inertialgravity waves propagate through the fluid at phase speeds much faster than particle velocities, while at small scales fast aco
