The crucial role of meshing in computational fluid dynamics simulations for organic geometries in paleobiology: Describing fluid dynamics performance through best practices

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has become an essential tool for studying fluid interactions in biological systems. While widely used in engineering, its application in the natural sciences, particularly in paleobiology, remains limited due to the challenges of meshing complex organic geometries.

Optimizing calibration designs with uncertainty in abilities

open access: yesBritish Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Before items can be implemented in a test, the item characteristics need to be calibrated through pretesting. To achieve high‐quality tests, it's crucial to maximize the precision of estimates obtained during item calibration. Higher precision can be attained if calibration items are allocated to examinees based on their individual abilities ...

Augury and Forerunner: Real‐Time Feedback Via Predictive Numerical Optimization and Input Prediction

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Transient information generated by solver steps can inform future objective function minimization. In Augury, we explore the impact of predictive numerical optimization by using solver history to predict future minimization solutions, reducing computational resources needed to arrive at convergent states for a broad class of gradient‐based optimization

Disentangling mechanisms that mediate soil fungal α and β diversity during forest secondary succession

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding the mechanisms controlling community diversity is a central, topic in ecology, particularly in microbial ecology. Although species pools and local assembly processes are believed to play non‐negligible roles in shaping the within‐community (α) and among‐community (β) diversity of microbial communities, their relative importance as ...

An Adhesive Bonded Single Lap Joint Model

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the mechanical behavior of lap joints by modeling adhesive damage and fracture using the cohesive crack technique. To improve predictive accuracy, the study adopts a linear softening law for the adhesive shear traction‐separation response and neglects peeling effects. The main goal is to derive closed‐form solutions for
