On Bending in the As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible Deformation Energy
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract The well‐established As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible (ARAP) energy has various forms. For surface deformation, commonly used energies contain an implicit bending penalty. We present a natural, continuous generalization that incorporates multiple ARAP versions with an implicit, user‐controllable bending penalty.

Soft-decision Star-QAM aided BICM-ID
, 2011 Differentially detected non-coherent Star Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (Star-QAM) is deal for low-complexity wireless communications, since it dispenses with high-complexity channel estimation. We conceive soft-decision based demodulation for 16-level

Life Cycle Consumption and Portfolio Choice Under Real Interest Rate Risk
Financial Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We set up a life cycle model with real interest rate risk to demonstrate that real interest rates have implications for optimal household consumption and investments. Lower interest rates lead to higher optimal stock investments and lower consumption.

Appraisal of Six Natural Mica Reference Materials for In Situ Rb‐Sr Geochronology
Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.Key Points Evaluated six natural mica reference materials for in situ LA‐ICP‐MS/MS Rb‐Sr geochronology using geochemical, microstructural and isotopic characterisation. Identified robust primary reference materials: Mount Dromedary biotite (99.37 Ma) and Mica‐Fe biotite (307.75 Ma). La Posta biotite and Högsbo muscovite are suitable secondary reference

SC‐550: A Sintered Calcite Reference Material for In Situ U‐Pb Geochronology
Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, EarlyView.Key Points New calcite reference material (SC‐550) produced by high‐temperature and high‐pressure sintering of nano‐particulate powder from a microbial limestone. Homogeneous U content (2.3 ± 0.4 μg g‐1) and U‐Pb isotope ratios (< 0.6% RSD for 207Pb/206Pb; < 3% RSD for 238U/206Pb).

Ibis, EarlyView.Hatching failure represents a significant and growing barrier to reproductive success in threatened birds and yet is often poorly understood. Populations of the Eurasian Curlew Numenius arquata in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland have experienced significant declines over recent decades, and low breeding productivity is a major barrier to ...

Modeling of nonlocal porous functionally graded nanobeams under moving loads
Научно-технический вестник информационных технологий, механики и оптикиThis study focuses on the dynamic response of porous functionally graded nanomaterials to moving loads. The analysis was performed using two approaches: the Ritz method with the help of the benefits achieved by employing Chebyshev polynomials in the ...

Accessible range of motion characterisation of the OpenFlexure microscope
Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.Abstract For any hardware to remain accessible, calibration techniques which rely on low‐cost and obtainable materials such as easily manufactured test slides are necessary. We present a method of measuring the range of motion of the OpenFlexure Microscope using minimal equipment and a computationally light algorithm suitable for running on embedded ...

Dynamic capital allocation in general insurance
Journal of Risk and Insurance, EarlyView.Abstract This paper provides a model for allocating capital to different insurance lines with varying development periods for a value‐maximizing insurance company. In our model, the company makes capitalization and exposure decisions considering its capital level and its relevant loss history.
