The socioeconomic dimensions of biosecurity: the New Zealand experience [PDF]
, 2006 The human dimensions of biological invasions have recently become the subject of serious study. Current insight suggests that socioeconomic arrangements can foster or restrict the introduction of new species, and create the conditions for alien species ...

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective The increasing burden associated with low back pain (LBP) is a critical issue. This is a novel analysis of trends in risk factors for LBP aiming to identify risk factors that require further attention or consideration in global policies to reduce the burden of LBP.

Simulation of Inhomogeneous Refractive Index Fields Induced by Hot Tailored Forming Components
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article presents a simulation model for simulating inhomogeneous refractive index fields (IRIF) in hot‐forged components, accounting for thermal influences and complex geometries. Through this simulation, a priori knowledge about the propagation of the IRIF can be obtained, allowing for the positioning of the component or an optical measurement ...

Can Economics Afford Not To Become Natural Science? [PDF]
, 2016 The 'Discussion & Debate' issue of this Euro. Phys. J. Special Topic volume is: 'Can economics be a Physical Science?' I would rather address a more general question: 'Can economics or sociology avoid joining Natural Science?' and argue that mainstream or core economics or sociology can not escape joining natural science.

A Central Limit Theorem, Loss Aversion and Multi-Armed Bandits [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This paper studies a multi-armed bandit problem where the decision-maker is loss averse, in particular she is risk averse in the domain of gains and risk loving in the domain of losses. The focus is on large horizons. Consequences of loss aversion for asymptotic (large horizon) properties are derived in a number of analytical results.

A Novel Simulation Approach for Damage Evolution during Tailored Forming
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Traditional damage models are struggling to accurately and efficiently simulate large‐scale three‐dimensional models with a great number of degrees of freedoms. A new gradient‐enhanced damage model based on the extended Hamilton principle can significantly reduce the computation time while ensuring mesh‐independence which is suitable to use in tailored
