Ruin probability and Gerber-Shiu function for the discrete time risk model with inhomogeneous claims /
… The main risk measures, ruin probabilities and Gerber-Shiu function, are investigated and recursive formulas are obtained. These formulas give fast and accurate evaluation of the finite time ruin probabilities and Gerber-Shiu function. However, the infinite time investigations require that the …

Análise dinâmica de vigas de pontes pelo método dos elementos finitos - aplicação a vigas Gerber
The dynamic analysis of bridges is presented, being the bridge idealized as an elastic beam under the action of moving constant forces. Special emphasis is given to the dynamic behavior of cantilever bridges. The structure is discretized in finite elements and the analysis is conducted by means of …
