Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study examines Invar composites reinforced with titanium carbide (TiC) and titanium nitride (TiN) using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). It presents the influence of reinforcements on microstructure, tensile properties, and thermal expansion. Results show that TiC effectively strengthens Invar while maintaining low thermal expansion, whereas TiN ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Resonant standing waves generate large‐area lattices of liquid‐crystal topological defects that are permanently encoded into polymer coatings by photopolymerization. The preserved director architecture produces thermally reconfigurable surface topographies while maintaining programmable optical functionality, demonstrating a scalable strategy for ...

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2014 We focus on the expected discounted penalty function of a compound Poisson risk model with random incomes and potentially delayed claims. It is assumed that each main claim will produce a byclaim with a certain probability and the occurrence of the ...

Stable Weak Approximation at Work in Index-Linked Catastrophe Bond Pricing
Risks, 2017 We consider the subject of approximating tail probabilities in the general compound renewal process framework, where severity data are assumed to follow a heavy-tailed law (in that only the first moment is assumed to exist). By using the weak convergence

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014 We consider a compound Poisson risk model with dependence and a constant dividend barrier. A dependence structure between the claim amount and the interclaim time is introduced through a Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern copula.

Optimal dividend policies for piecewise-deterministic compound Poisson risk models [PDF]
Scandinavian Actuarial Journal, 2013 This paper considers the optimal dividend payment problem in piecewise-deterministic compound Poisson risk models. The objective is to maximize the expected discounted dividend payout up to the time of ruin. We provide a comparative study in this general framework of both restricted and unrestricted payment schemes, which were only previously treated ...

Water‐Soluble, Enzyme‐Degradable, and Hydrolyzable STAR Particles for Enhanced Drug Delivery to Skin
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Biodegradable polymer STAR particles fabricated from water‐soluble, enzyme‐degradable, and hydrolyzable materials significantly enhance intradermal drug delivery. By replacing conventional non‐biodegradable materials, these STAR particles address environmental and safety concerns while expanding the potential of skin‐based drug delivery technologies ...
