Dynamic asymmetry of piezoelectric shell structures

, 2013
The non-symmetry and asymmetric dynamic characteristics of piezoelectric shell structures are studied analytically and numerically. The basic formulations of piezoelectric structures are firstly given in the tensor form.

Establishing Shape Correspondences: A Survey

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Shape correspondence between surfaces in 3D is a central problem in geometry processing, concerned with establishing meaningful relations between surfaces. While all correspondence problems share this goal, specific formulations can differ significantly: Downstream applications require certain properties that correspondences must satisfy ...

Geometry‐Aware Alignment and Comparison of Hierarchical Morse Complexes with Applications

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Scalar fields derived from 3D X‐ray CT scans of samples undergoing ex situ processes, such as thermal aging, chemical etching, or mechanical stress, pose unique challenges for characterizing similarities and differences across acquisitions. Typically, a sample A (source) is imaged, removed, and subjected to experimental conditions that alter ...

Measuring Thematic Funds Performance via an Approach Based on Observable and Latent Factors

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates whether thematic equity funds deliver abnormal performance relative to conventional global equity funds. Using Fama‐French models augmented with latent factors, we estimate fund‐level alphas, and apply the false discovery rate methodology to an estimated three‐group mixture distribution, separating good, null and bad ...

PEG400 regulates Falcipain 2 activity through an allosteric mechanism

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Falcipain‐2 can potentially be leveraged as a drug target due to its critical role as a haemoglobinase during the intra‐erythrocytic stage of Plasmodium falciparum. Here, we investigate the regulation of the proteolytic and haemoglobinase activity of falcipain‐2 in the presence of polyethylene glycol.

Robust Singular Value

, 2007
The singular value decomposition of a rectangular data matrix can be used to understand the structure of the data and give insight into the relationships of the row and column factors.

The Legacy of Policy Inaction in Climate‐Growth Models

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To better understand the structure and core mechanisms of a broad class of climate‐growth models, we study a simplified version of the dynamic integrated model of climate and the economy (DICE) through the lens of growth theory. We analytically show that this model features a continuum of saddle‐point stable steady states.

Estimating the largest singular values/vectors of large sparce matrices via modified moments

, 1995
This dissertation considers algorithms for determining a few of the largest singular values and corresponding vectors of large sparse matrices by solving equivalent eigen- value problems.

On the Existence of One‐Sided Representations for the Generalised Dynamic Factor Model

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the Generalised Dynamic Factor Model (GDFM) and show that the dynamic common component, that is, the common component of the GDFM, can be expressed using only current and past observations under mild assumptions. Specifically, we require (i) the dynamic common component to be purely non‐deterministic and (ii) the exclusion of ...

Band‐Pass Filtering With High‐Dimensional Time Series. A Synthetic Indicator of the Medium‐to‐Long Run Component of Growth

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paper deals with the construction of a synthetic indicator of economic growth, obtained by projecting a quarterly measure of aggregate economic activity, namely gross domestic product (GDP), into the space spanned by a finite number of smooth principal components, representative of the medium‐to‐long‐run component of economic growth of a ...
