Numerical Instability in Slope Stability Analysis: A Finite Difference Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In geotechnical engineering, slice methods are the most widely used computational techniques for analyzing slope stability. Notably, the Morgenstern‐Price and Janbu approaches rigorously enforce the equilibrium of forces and moments within these slice methods.

Internal and External Sources of Nonprofit Innovativeness: A Configurational Approach

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using a configurational approach, this research explores how the complex interrelationships among four organizational factors—board size, board involvement, centralization, and government funding—influence organizational innovation. Based on survey and archival data from 44 U.S.

Retrieving the propagation velocity of electromagnetic waves in a two‐layered medium through diffraction curves

open access: yesNear Surface Geophysics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper addresses the problem of retrieving the propagation velocities of electromagnetic waves in a non‐homogeneous soil made up of two layers separated by a not‐flat interface. The propagation velocities are estimated from GPR data gathered at the air–soil interface in common offset configuration.

A Comparative Study of MINLP and MPVC Formulations for Solving Complex Nonlinear Decision‐Making Problems in Aerospace Applications

open access: yesOptimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐level decision‐making for dynamical systems often involves performance and safety specifications that are activated or deactivated depending on conditions related to the system state and commands. Such decision‐making problems can be naturally formulated as optimization problems where these conditional activations are regulated by ...
