Genetic Algorithm for Optimal Control Design to Gust Response for Elastic Aircraft

open access: yesAerospace
Developing control systems for high aspect ratio aircraft can be challenging due to the flexibility of the structure involved in the control loop design. A model-based approach can be straightforward to tune the control system parameters and, to this aim,

Revisiting International Student Mobility Under New Geopolitics: Stratification, Conditionality, and Uncertainty

open access: yesFuture in Educational Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the 21st century, the governance of international student mobility has undergone a fundamental transformation, driven primarily by securitization, geoeconomic competition, and domestic political pressures that conventional market‐based frameworks such as the push‐pull model and human capital theory cannot adequately explain.

Corrosion Behavior of Commercial FeCrAl and TiAl Alloys in Molten Pb With 2E‐7 wt% Oxygen at 600°C and 700°C

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
Excellent corrosion resistance of commercial Al‐containing materials is shown for exposures to liquid lead (Pb) at 600°C. However, oxide scale failure occurs at 700°C. The formed oxide scales and their failure mechanisms are explored. ABSTRACT Liquid lead (Pb) is an attractive heat transfer fluid for advanced thermal energy storage (TES) systems.

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

The Questioning of Special Items During Conference Calls: High Quality or Highly Questionable? Réexaminer des éléments exceptionnels lors des conférences téléphoniques : une pratique d'excellence ou très contestable?

open access: yesContemporary Accounting Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accounting standards require firms to distinguish recurring revenues and expenses from nonrecurring gains and losses, which are often referred to as special items. However, not all special items are genuinely nonrecurring. Exploiting the setting of earnings conference calls, we explore whether analysts can identify opportunistic special items,
