Constitutive Equations of Soils Based on the Subloading Surface Concept
Various cyclic plasticity models have been proposed in the past. Among them the subloading surface model (Hashiguchi, 1989) only is regraded to have the pertinent structure adaptable to the prediction of cyclic loading behavior of materials as has been revealed by the author (Hashiguchi, 1993b). The constitutive equation of soils is formulated by introducing the subloading surface model and formulating the evolution rule of the rotational hardening for the description of the induced anisotropy

Kaikoku heidan 海國兵談
English Translation: Military strategies in sea battles and weaponry.Originally self-publishedHand-drawn ink on paper,
Size: 10 1/16 x 7 3/16 in.Hayashi Shihei (1738-1793), a samurai from Mutsu, originally went to Nagasaki in 1755 to study Dutch horsemanship (1). His visit to Nagasaki in 1777, however, was what prompted him to write Kaikoku heidan, an illustrated discourse on military strategies in sea battles and weaponry. A meeting with the head of the Dutch Trading Office gave Hayashi enough information to become concerned for Japan’s future and the government’s foreign policy.
Shihei had difficulty securing funds for printing, and it took him three years to finally complete the publication (2). It was originally self-published to avoid government censorship (3). Generally, self-published books, as well as manuscripts and books printed with movable type, were exempt from censorship. Unfortunately, the book was banned in the same year the last volume was published. The government confiscated the printed books as well as the printing blocks, and placed Shihei under house arrest.
He is said to have composed a parody poem to express his predicament, “No parents, no wife, no children, no printing blocks, no money, but no way I would want to die.” His earlier work, Sangoku tsūran zusetsu (The survey of three countries),i was also banned in the same year.

Allocation efficiency in China's state-owned, private, and foreign sector firms
application/pdfIDP000778_001Despite the fact many scholars have shown an interest in China's allocation efficiency, few studies have examined quantitative analysis of allocation efficiency within and between the state-owned and private sectors. To address this issue, this paper develops a quantitative measure of allocation efficiency, which is an extension of the dynamic Olley-Pakes productivity decomposition proposed by Melitz and Polanec (2015). The extended measure enables the simultaneous capture of the degree of misallocation within a group and between groups and parallel to capturing the contribution of entering and exiting firms to aggregate productivity growth. Using China's manufacturing firm-level data from 2003 to 2007, the author examine the efficiency of resource allocation within and between three ownership sectors (state-owned, domestic private, and foreign sectors). It is found that the between allocation efficiency tends to improve in industries wherein market shares move from the less-productive state sector to the more-productive private sector.technical repor
