A detailed description of the structure and mechanism of the lever-type damper is provided, followed by a stress analysis using the finite element method. Dynamic per- formance characteristics of the lever-type damper and the wedge-type damper are compared in terms of the nonlinear critical speed, riding index, and curve negotiation. The results indicate that the maximum stress of the lever remains below its yield limit. The lever-type car has higher running performance reliability, and achieves similar nonlinear critical speed, riding index, and curve negotiation when compared with the wedge-type car.展开更多

Stock options do not necessarily aggravate agency costs in levered firms. The corporate governance affects agency costs greatly. If debt-holders were entitled to design executive stock options together with stockholders, by allocating power properly between stockholders and debt-holders, firm value could be enhanced greatly. The following way of allocating power between the two parties is proposed: the exercise price should be the weighted average of the stockholders' and debt-holders' suggested exercise prices. The weight allocated to debt-holders is positively related to the amount of debts that debt-holders lend to stockholders.展开更多
