Measuring contact area in a sliding human finger‐pad contact [PDF]
Skin Research and Technology, 2017 AbstractBackground/PurposeThe work outlined in this paper was aimed at achieving further understanding of skin frictional behaviour by investigating the contact area between human finger‐pads and flat surfaces.MethodsBoth the static and the dynamic contact areas (in macro‐ and micro‐scales) were measured using various techniques, including ink printing,

Combined Effect of Contact Area, Aperture Variation, and Fracture Connectivity on Fluid Flow through Three-Dimensional Rock Fracture Networks [PDF]
, 2022 In order to investigate the combined effect of contact area, aperture variation, and fracture connectivity on the fluid flow through a fractured medium, a series of flow simulations were implemented on two types of three-dimensional discrete fracture ...

SR-BLITS: Sharpe ratio’s backward-looking improvement as a trading strategy
IIMB Management Review, 2019 A common strategy for a single security or a tradeable asset is to buy-and-hold. Proposed SRBLITS that takes a position based on buy and sell signals which correspond to the maximisation of a backwards-looking Sharpe Ratio (SR) based on past returns.
