Multiphysics Simulation Methods in Computer Graphics
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Physics simulation is a cornerstone of many computer graphics applications, ranging from video games and virtual reality to visual effects and computational design. The number of techniques for physically‐based modeling and animation has thus skyrocketed over the past few decades, facilitating the simulation of a wide variety of materials and ...

Fluidly Revealing Information: A Survey of Un/foldable Data Visualizations
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Revealing relevant information on demand is an essential requirement for visual data exploration. In this state‐of‐the‐art report, we review and classify techniques that are inspired by the physical metaphor of un/folding to reveal relevant information or, conversely, to reduce irrelevant information in data visualizations.

Assessing the Corn Belt as an anthropogenic barrier to migrating landbirds in the United States
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Migrating landbirds adjust their flight and stopover behaviors to efficiently cross inhospitable geographies, such as the Gulf of Mexico and the Sahara Desert. In addition to these natural barriers, birds may increasingly encounter anthropogenic barriers created by large‐scale changes in land use. One such barrier could be the Corn Belt in the

Insights from equitable governance assessments in conservation areas around the world
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Global policy commitments to ensure that protected and conserved areas (PCAs) are equitably governed have increased interest in empirically assessing and analyzing social equity. Although numerous assessments have been conducted in individual PCAs, there is limited empirical insight into equity as a multidimensional concept beyond the site ...

Ten relevant questions for applying biodiversity offsetting in the Pantanal wetland
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Here, we formulated 10 questions that discuss and illustrate how offsetting can be applied to maintain wetland integrity, economic fairness, and biodiversity conservation in the Pantanal and Upper Paraguay River basin (UPRB) We provided examples of offsetting implementation opportunities, analyze spatial compliance deficits, and illustrate requirements

Economic Inquiry, EarlyView.Abstract In their 2022 study, ‘The Effects of Naloxone Access Laws on Opioid Abuse, Mortality, and Crime,’ Doleac and Mukherjee conclude that broadening access to a life‐saving drug—naloxone—does not reduce opioid‐related mortality as the drug simultaneously encourages riskier drug use. I show issues with their data, design, and estimation methods. For

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract Sustained long‐distance trade in the early modern era necessitated institutional mechanisms capable of solving three interrelated challenges: the need to mobilize an unprecedented volume of capital and to lock it in for long periods of time, ways of mitigating the principal–agent problem across continents, and methods to internalize and ...

A century of art dealing in New York. The rise of American art
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract We study art trade in New York between 1870 and 1970, analysing returns on investment by the renowned Knoedler gallery to shed light on the evolution of the American art market. A generalist art gallery should allocate investments to equalize expected returns, with differences in effective returns depending on purchase prices, number of traded
