Because the refracted sound field of a finite beam extremely depends on the size and on the frequency of the generating element, Snell's law in many cases is not applicable to calculate the refraction angle of a finite beam. Approaches using plane reflection and transmission coefficients in connecti

Five different ways of deducing Weibuli's distribution function of the cumulative probability of fracture or yielding are discussed in this paper. Two of these deductions are already well known; one is based on a differential method while the other uses a series expansion. Now three more deductions

A new method for building infinite models for first-order formulae is presented. The method combines enumeration techniques with existing deductive (in a broad sense) ones. Its soundness and completeness w.r.t. the class of models that can be represented by equational constraints are proven. This sh
