Emmett L. Bennett, Jr. Offprint Collection
No full textThe scholarly library of Emmett L. Bennett, Jr. compiled in the course of his Editorship of the journal Nestor (founded in 1957). The collection includes scholarly publications (offprints) and manuscripts sent by prospective authors to Dr. Bennett. Includes a Finding Aid (PDF and Word) and Catalog (an Excel document for each of two record groups: offprints collected up to 1995, and offprints collected from 1995-2011). Both the Finding Aid and Catalog are provided to facilitate researchers' searches for offprints by author, title, journal, year, and subject.Classic
Bradley-Terry models in R : the BradleyTerry2 package
No full textThis is a short overview of the R add-on package BradleyTerry2, which facilitates the specification and fitting of Bradley-Terry logit, probit or cauchit models to pair-comparison data. Included are the standard 'unstructured' Bradley-Terry model, structured versions in which the parameters are related through a linear predictor to explanatory variables, and the possibility of an order or 'home advantage' effect or other 'contest-specific' effects. Model fitting is either by maximum likelihood, by penalized quasi-likelihood (for models which involve a random effect), or by bias-reduced maximum likelihood in which the first-order asymptotic bias of parameter estimates is eliminated. Also provided are a simple and efficient approach to handling missing covariate data, and suitably-defined residuals for diagnostic checking of the linear predictor

Bennett Based Balanced Butterfly Linkage, Deployable Linkage with Inherent Balance
No full textIn this paper it is shown how a 2-DoF inherently force balanced spatial deployable Butterfly Linkage is found consisting of four entangled similar Bennett linkages moving synchronously and with the common center of mass in the central joint. This linkage is derived from the Grand 4R Four-Bar Based Inherently Balanced Linkage Architecture by selecting a planar linkage with four entangled similar 4R four-bar linkages to which the Bennett conditions are applied. The inherent balance conditions are calculated, which are independent of the Bennett angles, and a CAD-model of the linkage is presented.Accepted Author ManuscriptMechatronic Systems Desig
