The paper titled "The Study by Mr. Wu etc  Concerning Saint-Venant’s Principle is Insignificant" reviewed the series of four works of “proof of Saint-Venant’s Principle” published by Wu etc .The four articles proved neither the discrete Saint-Venant type decay of section-forces of the finite elements in the chain model of discretization of the cylinder  nor  the discrete Saint-Venant-type decay of section-displacements, posed in their papers. Furthermore, the discrete Saint-Venant type  decay of section-forces  is not provable.

I am attaching a PDF of Alex and Alison's final presentation for ES 240.  The topic is "Arterial Compliance and Disease."

A logo is a representation of a
company in the form of name, letters, graphics or symbol. It is used in
website, business cards, invoices, advertising material, stationery designs,
and signs as an emblem so as to make the company easily recognizable with its
logo.

I can't find this paper:
