Predicting rare events using training data from stratified sampling designs, with application to human‐caused wildfire prediction

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Response‐based sampling is often used in modelling rare events from large, imbalanced data for efficiency. When modelling the event with logistic regression, the sampling design may be adjusted for using sampling weights or an offset. We propose a stratified sampling design for modelling rare events with large data which improves on previous ...

Improving the Economics of Sustainable Aviation Fuels: System‐Level Analyses and Perspective

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
A coproduction strategy is developed to address the economic and environmental limitations of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production. Using lignocellulosic biomass, the integrated process coproduces SAF, adipic acid, and furfural. Techno‐economic and life‐cycle analyses reveal improved profitability and a substantial reduction in carbon emissions ...

Influence of Ink Composition and Drying Technique on the Performance and Stability of Fe–N–C‐Based High‐Temperature Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
Fe–N–Cs are a promising alternative to Pt‐based catalysts in high‐temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells; however, their catalyst layer design requires optimization. This study compares conventional oven drying and freeze‐drying for catalyst layer fabrication using the same catalyst. Different impacts on the morphology are revealed. Freeze‐

Microfluidic‐Assisted Evolution of a Robust NAD+‐Dependent Enzyme with Improved Isobutanol Tolerance at Elevated Temperatures

open access: yesChemSusChem, EarlyView.
Utilizing the power of the absorbance‐activated droplet sorter, a key enzyme for a cell‐free multienzymatic cascade for sustainable isobutanol biosynthesis is optimized for improved thermostability and isobutanol tolerance required for efficient cascade performance.

Retrospective studies of operating problems in air transport [PDF]

open access: yes
An epidemiological model for the study of human errors in aviation is presented. In this approach, retrospective data are used as the basis for formulation of hypotheses as to system factors which may have contributed to such errors.
