Optimal Bundle Pricing

open access: yes
Bundle pricing is a widespread phenomenon. However, despite its importance as a pricing tool, surprisingly little is known about how to find optimal bundle prices. Most discussions in the literature are restricted to only two components, and even in this

A Sustainable Bio‐Based Epoxy Thermoset as a High‐Performance Alternative to BPA‐Based Resins

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A rigid–flexible bio‐based epoxy network integrates soybean oil, lignin, and maleic anhydride to overcome the strength–toughness–sustainability trade‐off of conventional BPA epoxy. The thermoset delivers excellent performance as both a structural adhesive and a matrix for glass‐fabric composites, while enabling pH‐responsive degradation, environmental ...

Optimal Bundle Pricing for Homogeneous Items [PDF]

open access: yes
We consider a revenue maximization problem where we are selling a set of m items, each of which available in a certain quantity (possibly unlimited) to a set of n bidders.

Essays On Hybrid Bundle Pricing

open access: yes, 2011
Increasingly, firms are offering hybrid bundles ? products that combine both good(s) and service(s). Some hybrid bundles, such as TiVo that combines a DVR and recording management are more visible, while some, such as GE?s Powerplant System that includes

Programmable Chaotic Suspension Electrolysis for Scalable Manufacturing of Vacancy‐Tunable Electrolytic MnO2

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Programmable chaotic suspension electrolysis bridges laboratory synthesis and industrial manufacturing of high‐performance MnO2 cathodes. This scalable strategy enables tunable oxygen vacancies and a robust γ/β tunnel framework, delivering superior electrochemical performance and thermal stability.

Models for Bundle Trading in Financial Markets [PDF]

open access: yes
Bundle trading is a new trend in financial markets that allows traders to submit consolidated orders to sell and buy packages of assets. We propose a new formulation for portfolio bundle trading that extends the previous models of the literature through ...

Stochastic Entanglement of Deterministic Origami Tentacles For Robust Robotic Grasping

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces an origami tentacle gripper to robustly grasp objects‐in air, underwater, and even in orbital space‐by exploiting a synergy between local, deterministic deformation programming and global, stochastic entanglements. A single origami tentacle can be designed to coil with a simple tendon pull.

On the Complexity of the Highway Pricing Problem [PDF]

open access: yes
The highway pricing problem asks for prices to be determined for segments of a single highway such as to maximize the revenue obtainable from a given set of customers with known valuations. The problem is (weakly) NP-hard and a recent quasi-PTAS suggests

Studies on Counter Electrode Materials in Aqueous Zinc Half‐Cell Configurations

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Coulombic efficiency is a key metric for zinc reversibility in aqueous zinc‐ion batteries, but its reliability in zinc half‐cells is strongly influenced by poorly understood counter‐electrode materials. By systematically comparing Cu, Ti, stainless steel, and Al to identify reactions associated with current collectors, we find that Ti is the metal ...
