Probabilistic calibration of strength and strain enhancement models for FRP-confined concrete in circular section by Chen, Qi-Sen, Yu, Bo, Li, Bing

“…The probabilistic models that incorporate the essential factors identified from the previous study were updated based on the Bayesian theory, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Moreover, nine representative deterministic SEE models and six SAE models were evaluated by credible interval (CI) and confidence level (CL) under different conditions of the axial strain of unconfined concrete in the literature, the hoop rupture strain, the peak axial compressive stress of unconfined concrete, and the lateral confinement stiffness. …”

From private entrepreneurship to state monopoly: contracting Swiss soldiers for Dutch Service under Ancien Régime Fiscal- Military Practices (1693–1829) by Depreter, M

“…This contribution examines Dutch contracting practices to hire Swiss troops during the Ancien Régime, from the first contracts directly negotiated in the Protestant cantons by Petrus Valckenier (1693-1694) during the Nine Years’ War, seizing opportunities arisen from Louis XIV’s revocation of the Edict of Nantes (1685) after a period during which the Dutch seem to have relied on uncertain access to Swiss manpower through French intercession, up to the end of a short-lived revival of Swiss foreign regiments in the newly-instated Kingdom of the Netherlands (1814-1829). …”
