Progressively Projected Newton's Method

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Newton's Method is widely used to find the solution of complex non‐linear simulation problems. To guarantee a descent direction, it is common practice to clamp the negative eigenvalues of each element Hessian prior to assembly—a strategy known as Projected Newton (PN)—but this perturbation often hinders convergence.

Mixed Super‐Circles

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We introduce mixed super‐circles, a position‐curvature formulation of the original dynamic 2D super‐helix model. Compared to the latter, purely curvature‐based model – the so‐called chained formulation –, the mixed formulation that we propose here drastically reduces the algorithmic complexity of the solving scheme – from quadratic to quasi ...

The role of foreign capital flows in health finance

Economic Inquiry, EarlyView.
Abstract This study develops an open economy version of the health deficit model to examine how rising health expenditures affect international capital flows, external balances, and welfare. The government issues bonds in international capital markets, linking health policy to international financial dynamics.

Offspring Size Resolves a Population Growth Paradox in Rays and Skates

Fish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The maximum intrinsic population growth rate, rmax, is a key determinant of sustainable fishing limits and is increasingly used in risk assessments. We previously showed how the rmax of rays and skates (subclass Batoidea) scales with adult body size, temperature (and hence depth) such that smaller‐bodied species and those in warmer, shallower ...

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.
