Generating random variates from a bicompositional Dirichlet distribution [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Computation and Simulation, 2012 A composition is a vector of positive components summing to a constant. The sample space of a composition is the simplex, and the sample space of two compositions, a bicomposition, is a Cartesian product of two simplices. We present a way of generating random variates from a bicompositional Dirichlet distribution defined on the Cartesian product of two

Mathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper focuses on optimal design problems in the context of the Kirchhoff‐Love model for pure bending of a thin, solid, symmetric plate under a transverse load. The objective is to simultaneously determine the optimal outer shape of the domain and the distribution of two isotropic materials within the domain in order to minimize compliance.

A Phase‐Field Model for Quasi‐Dynamic Rupture Nucleation and Propagation of In‐Plane Faults
International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Computational modeling of faulting processes is an essential tool for understanding earthquake mechanics but remains challenging due to the structural and material complexities of fault zones. The phase‐field method has recently enabled unified modeling of fault propagation and off‐fault damage within a fracture‐mechanics‐based framework ...

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Swelling of clay‐sulfate rocks is a concern in geotechnical engineering that can damage infrastructure. In the historic town of Staufen in southwest Germany, geothermal drilling into a swellable anhydrite‐bearing clay formation resulted in water inflow and subsequent swelling, triggering ground heave and damage to more than 250 houses.

Business‐Like Narrative and Public Engagement: Evidence From TED Talks on Nonprofit Issues
Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While the trend of nonprofits adopting business‐like practices has been widely discussed, limited attention has been paid to how the broader public responds to this shift. One way to capture public reactions is by examining engagement with business‐like narratives in media.

Oikos, EarlyView.Functional traits allow ecologists to synthesise general rules of community assembly. In joint species distribution modelling, traits are increasingly used to explain species–environment relationships, with the intention of being able to generalise predictions to other species in other systems.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.An energy‐conserving discrete framework for the vertical discretisation of stratified ocean models is developed using internal gravity‐wave theory. A β$$ \beta $$‐indexed family of schemes is analysed through perturbation theory, revealing optimal parameter choices and grid designs that reduce truncation errors significantly.

Local Search and the Evolution of World Models
Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract An open question regarding how people develop their models of the world is how new candidates are generated for consideration out of infinitely many possibilities. We discuss the role that evolutionary mechanisms play in this process. Specifically, we argue that when it comes to developing a global world model, innovation is necessarily ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This systematic review reconceptualizes inclusive education (IE) as a cross‐cutting strategy for sustainable development. We analyze 2729 articles published between 2015 and 2025, identifying 357 that explicitly address sustainability. Using PRISMA 2020, bibliometric mapping, and binomial generalized linear models, we examine temporal ...
