Vog: Using Volcanic Eruptions to Estimate the Health Costs of Particulates
The Economic Journal, EarlyView., 2018 The negative consequences of long‐term exposure to particulate pollution are well established but a number of studies find no effect of short‐term exposure on health outcomes. The high correlation of industrial pollutants complicates the estimation of the impact of individual pollutants on health.

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.This study presents a fast and accurate calculation tool to predict conveying of polymer melts in single‐screw extruders. Integrating generalized sub‐models into network theory allows to represent the complex screw shapes and material behavior more realistically. Tests on an industrial extruder show close agreement with experiments, outperforming older

Motivations for an arbitrary precision interval arithmetic and the MPFI library [PDF]
, 2002 This paper justifies why an arbitrary precision interval arithmetic is needed: to provide accurate results, interval computations require small input intervals; this explains why bisection is so often employed in interval algorithms. The MPFI library has

A Near-Optimal Algorithm for Computing Real Roots of Sparse Polynomials
, 2014 Let $p\in\mathbb{Z}[x]$ be an arbitrary polynomial of degree $n$ with $k$ non-zero integer coefficients of absolute value less than $2^\tau$. In this paper, we answer the open question whether the real roots of $p$ can be computed with a number of ...

Converting an Integer to a Decimal String in Under Two Nanoseconds
Software: Practice and Experience, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Converting binary integers to variable‐length decimal strings is a fundamental operation in computing. Conventional fast approaches rely on recursive division and small lookup tables. The goal of this work is to develop a significantly faster method for this task.

American Business Law Journal, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of powerful criticism, the “reliance interest” continues to hold an impactful position in judicial and academic treatment of contract damages. And yet, the theoretical foundation of reliance damages for breach of contract remains unsettled.
