Linear Toroidal‐Inertial Waves on A Differentially Rotating Sphere with Application to Helioseismology: Modeling, Forward and Inverse Problems

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops a mathematical framework for interpreting observations of solar inertial waves in an idealized setting. Under the assumption of purely toroidal linear waves on the sphere, the stream function of the flow satisfies a fourth‐order scalar equation.

T(w)o Patch or Not T(w)o Patch: A Novel Biocontrol Model

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A number of top‐down biocontrol models have been proposed where the introduced predators' efficacy is enhanced via the provision of additional food (AF). However, if the predator has a pest‐dependent monotone functional response, pest extinction is unattainable. In the current manuscript, we propose a model where a predator with pest‐dependent

Uncertainty, Sensitivity, and Efficiency Analysis of a Hybrid Piezoelectric–Electromagnetic Energy Harvester

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digitalization and emerging technologies are increasing the demand for wireless sensing and the Internet of Things (IoT), which provide opportunities for autonomous sources of electricity in the form of energy harvesting systems. This paper focuses on the challenges in hybrid piezoelectric‐electromagnetic kinetic energy harvesting systems that

Linear Mechatronic Modeling of Rectangular Tank Sloshing Dynamics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sloshing dynamics in partially filled tanks can strongly influence system‐level behavior when fluid motion couples with rigid‐body dynamics. This paper presents a linear and acausal two‐dimensional sloshing model for rectangular tanks, based on the reformulation of established sloshing theory within a modular, multi‐domain modeling framework ...

Nonprofit Governance and Financial Stability: A Study of Government‐Funded Social Services

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonprofit social service providers are essential in delivering vital services, often with public funding. This study adopts a contingency perspective to explore the relationship between organizational governance and financial stability in publicly funded nonprofit organizations. We use a combination of comparative multilevel analysis (CMA) and

Generalizing the Gaussian Network Model: Spanning‐Tree Thermodynamics Shows Entropy‐Driven KRAS Activation

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The GTPase KRAS executes a conformational switch between a GTP‐bound active state and a GDP‐bound inactive state, a process central to oncogenic signaling. However, the structural basis of this switching at the level of residue‐contact organization remains incompletely characterized by traditional binary structural models.

New views of some invariants associated with the Cartesian 2D velocity gradient tensor

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Vorticity and divergence of horizontal flow are fundamental quantities in meteorology; both are linear functions of the four elements of the 2D velocity gradient tensor and both are formally unchanged under coordinate rotation. We explore four quadratic functions of the elements that are geometrically invariant in this sense, finding some novel ...
