Numerical and Experimental Evaluation of a Simplified Lateral Spring Formulation for Rocking Structures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rocking podium isolation systems have gained significant research interest as a method of limiting seismic demands on superstructures and eliminating residual post‐earthquake drifts through self‐centring behaviour. However, while numerous models of varying complexity, including analytical, phenomenological, and physical formulations, have been

Direction‐Aware Period Prediction for Seismic Risk Assessment and Application to an Urban Tall Building Portfolio in China

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reliable estimation of the principal periods is essential for regional seismic risk assessment (RSRA) of urban building portfolios. For tall buildings, however, existing period‐prediction formulas are constrained by the lack of representative data, while building translational azimuths are neglected despite their importance for regional ...

Asymptotic normality of spectral estimates

The asymptotic normality of some spectral estimates, including a functional central limit theorem for an estimate of the spectral distribution function, is proved for fourth-order stationary processes.

Parametric inference and forecasting in continuously invertible volatility models [PDF]

We introduce the notion of continuously invertible volatility models that relies on some Lyapunov condition and some regularity condition. We show that it is almost equivalent to the volatilities forecasting efficiency of the parametric inference approach

Immersed Boundary Projection Method for Boundaries With Slip Velocities

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
A formulation of the immersed boundary method for incompressible flow over arbitrarily‐shaped bodies with surface slip described by the Navier boundary condition is presented. The wall slip velocity and the boundary force are determined implicitly through a projection to satisfy both the boundary condition and the divergence‐free condition of the ...

Verification of an Incompressible Viscoelastic Flow Solver Using the Method of Manufactured Solutions for Oldroyd‐B and Giesekus Constitutive Models

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
This study utilizes the Method of Manufactured Solutions (MMS) to validate high‐order compact finite‐difference schemes for 2D incompressible viscoelastic flows. By applying Oldroyd‐B and Giesekus models to a lid‐driven cavity benchmark, the researchers rigorously assessed numerical accuracy across varying Reynolds and Weissenberg numbers.

Hole transporting materials in inverted flexible perovskite solar cells: Challenges, progress, and perspectives

FlexMat, EarlyView.
The buried interface is a critical determinant of efficiency and stability in inverted flexible perovskite solar cells (IFPSCs). This Perspective summarizes advances in hole transporting materials for IFPSCs, including polymeric, small‐molecule, inorganic, and hybrid systems, and discusses the prospects and feasibility of emerging molecular design and ...

A New Implementation of Network GARCH Model for Stock Volatility and Co‐Volatility Forecasting

Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Volatility clustering and spillovers are key features of financial time series with many cross‐sectional assets. While network analysis links similar or correlated stocks and helps trace volatility spillovers, contemporary multivariate ARCH‐GARCH formulations struggle to represent structured network dependence and remain parsimonious.

The Energy Dilemma: Does Energy Security Risk and Renewable Energy Affect Fossil Material Footprint? Policy Framework for Securing SDGs

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
Energy security risk has a positive impact on material footprint. Renewable energy consumption reduces material footprint. ABSTRACT Following a high economic growth path, the group of G7 economies is found to be utilising more and more material, causing a material footprint (MF), which in turn contributes to pollution.

Explicit Methods for Inverse Source Identification in Transient Diffusion via Truncated Eigenfunction Regularization of Temperature Measurements

Heat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This work presents and compares two explicit approaches for estimating space‐ and time‐dependent source terms in parabolic diffusion equations, derived from analytical solutions obtained through the Classical Integral Transform Technique (CITT).
