The dipole anisotropy of WISE x SuperCOSMOS number counts [PDF]
, 2018 We probe the isotropy of the Universe with the largest all-sky photometric redshift dataset currently available, namely WISE~$\times$~SuperCOSMOS. We search for dipole anisotropy of galaxy number counts in multiple redshift shells within the $0.10 < z ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.This study investigates ground subsidence during tunnel excavation in karst areas, highlighting the combined effects of karst cave proximity, cave size, and soil spatial variability. Findings suggest that shorter cave distances and larger cave sizes increase subsidence variability, and a modified Peck formula is proposed for more accurate subsidence ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Risk‐based seismic assessments using demand curves that provide mean annual exceedance rates for various system demand levels are increasingly being adopted. Such assessments combine the seismic hazard curve with fragility functions for each demand level, serving as a basis to quantify the average annual losses from system damage. Constructing

Uncertainty Propagation and Feature Selection for Loss Estimation in Performance-based Earthquake Engineering [PDF]
, 2004 This report presents a new methodology, called moment matching, of propagating the uncertainties in estimating repair costs of a building due to future earthquake excitation, which is required, for example, when assessing a design in performance-based ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.The proposed hybrid osprey‐salp swarm optimization algorithm addresses optimal power flow (OPF) problems in smart grids incorporating solar, hydro, and thermal generators. The algorithm is validated on Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 30‐, 57‐, and 118‐bus test systems across five single and multiobjective OPF scenarios.

Time Integrals Under the Black–Scholes–Merton and Margrabe Economies
Journal of Futures Markets, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The problem of integrating the Black, Scholes, and Merton (BSM) formula with respect to the time variable is paramount for an economist. Inspired by the real options literature, Shackleton and Wojakowski offer analytic formulae for valuing finite maturity (profit) caps and floors that are contingent on continuous flows following a lognormal ...

Inconsistency of the Capital Asset Pricing Model in a Multi‐Currency Environment
International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The capital asset pricing model (CAPM) is a widely adopted model in asset pricing theory and portfolio construction because of its intuitive nature. One of its main conclusions is that there exists a global market portfolio that each rational investor should hold in proportion to the risk‐free asset. In this paper, we demonstrate theoretically

On the Power-Law Tail in the Mass Function of Protostellar Condensations and Stars
, 2003 We explore the idea that the power-law tail in the mass function of protostellar condensations and stars arises from the accretion of ambient cloud material on to a condensation, coupled with a nonuniform (exponential) distribution of accretion lifetimes.

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction
PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Martingale Option Pricing [PDF]
, 2007 We show that our generalization of the Black-Scholes partial differential equation (pde) for nontrivial diffusion coefficients is equivalent to a Martingale in the risk neutral discounted stock price.
