Exploring the Elastic Properties of Interfacial Transition Zone in Concrete Materials Using an Ensemble Learning Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Concrete materials consist of multiple phases with distinct mechanical properties, making it essential to accurately identify the mechanical behavior of both constituent phases and their interfaces for effective multiscale modeling. This study estimates the elastic properties of the interfacial transition zone using a machine learning (ML ...

Knowledge Gradient Procedure to Select the Best System Under Pairwise Comparisons

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article considers fixed‐budget ranking and selection (R&S) problems where the performance of alternative designs can only be assessed through pairwise comparisons, a setting encountered in many applications, including player ranking in games, sports tournaments, recommender systems, image‐based search, public choice models such as voting ...

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.

Adaptive sampling for ecological monitoring using biased data: a stratum‐based approach

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Indicators of biodiversity change across large extents of geographic, temporal and taxonomic space are frequent products of various types of ecological monitoring and other data collection efforts. Unfortunately, many such indicators are based on data that are highly unlikely to be representative of the intended statistical populations.

Quantifying community keystoneness in metacommunities under disturbance

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Understanding how metacommunities respond to natural and anthropogenic disturbances is a key objective in ecology. In this study, we introduce an analytical framework to identify communities whose extirpation triggers stronger (hereafter keystone communities) or weaker (hereafter idle communities) cascading effects on extinction and colonization events
