SDG 10. Reduced inequalities

open access: yes, 2021
Abstract: Sustainable Development Goal number 10 addresses inequality and aims at reducing it. The chapter investigates the impact on inequality of the way in which we attribute a particular (private) law to legal relationships. In contract law, the law of property and corporate law, there are ways in which the connection between the law and the legal ...

Implications of Teleportation for Nonlocality

open access: yes, 2002
Adopting an approach similar to that of Zukowski [Phys. Rev. A 62, 032101 (2000)], we investigate connections between teleportation and nonlocality. We derive a Bell-type inequality pertaining to the teleportation scenario and show that it is violated in

A Physics Constrained Machine Learning Pipeline for Young's Modulus Prediction in Multimaterial Hyperelastic Cylinders Guided by Contact Mechanics

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
A physics‐guided machine learning framework estimates Young's modulus in multilayered multimaterial hyperelastic cylinders using contact mechanics. A semiempirical stiffness law is embedded into a custom neural network, ensuring physically consistent predictions. Validation against experimental and numerical data on C.

“It Is Much Safer to Be Sparse than Connected”: Safe Control of Robotic Swarm Density Dynamics with PDE Optimization with State Constraints

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper proposes a novel control framework to ensure safety of a robotic swarm. A feedback optimization controller is capable of driving the swarm toward a target density while keeping risk‐zone exposure below a safety threshold. Theory and experiments show how safety is more effectively achieved for sparsely connected swarms.

Still the lucky country? [PDF]

open access: yes
Over the past 30 years the gap between the rich and the poor has increased rapidly in a majority of the world’s countries. Oxfam has previously reported that inequality is so severe that the 85 richest people in the world own the same as half of the ...

Input Sparsity‐Aware Computing‐In‐Memory with Bidirectional Conversion‐Skippable Analog‐to‐Digital Converter

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article introduces an input sparsity‐aware computing‐in‐memory macro featuring novel bidirectional conversion‐skippable analog‐to‐digital converters. By dynamically adjusting resolution based on element‐level sparsity, the architecture skips redundant most significant bit and least significant bit conversions.

Narrowing urban–suburban rural disparities in physical growth among children in China: findings from the 5th national survey in 2015

open access: yesAnnals of Human Biology, 2017
Background: Previous studies have reported a narrowing tendency in urban–suburban rural differences for height, but almost no tendency of narrowing for weight in Chinese children between 1975–2005.
