Decaying Turbulence in Generalised Burgers Equation

open access: yes, 2013
We consider the generalised Burgers equation $$ \frac{\partial u}{\partial t} + f'(u)\frac{\partial u}{\partial x} - \nu \frac{\partial^2 u}{\partial x^2}=0,\ t \geq 0,\ x \in S^1, $$ where $f$ is strongly convex and $\nu$ is small and positive.

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

On the generalization of Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities for E`-convex function via fractional integrals

open access: yesHeliyon
The main motivation in this article is to prove new integral identities and related results. In this paper, we deal with E`-convex function, Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities, and Katugampola fractional integrals.

Neighborhood social environments and mental health among youth and adults in public housing

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Neighborhoods influence health in part through social processes. However, little is known about how multiple neighborhood social processes co‐occur, or about within (vs. between) neighborhood variation in social processes and health. This study asked how residents of a large public housing development describe their neighborhood and used ...

Jensen's Functionals on Time Scales

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces and Applications, 2012
We consider Jensen’s functionals on time scales and discuss its properties and applications. Further, we define weighted generalized and power means on time scales.

Racism and racial disparities in firearm violence: A scoping review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Firearm violence (i.e., interpersonal, police firearm violence) disproportionately affects racially minoritized communities. Researchers recently shifted their focus from race to racism to better understand the factors that contribute to racial disparities in firearm violence.

Some Improvements of Hölder's Inequality on Time Scales

open access: yesAnalele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2017
The theory and applications of dynamic derivatives on time scales have recently received considerable interest. In this paper, we define a function using the combined diamond- α integral, investigate its monotonicity and give some refinements for Hölder ...

The psychosocial toll of Dublin III on asylum seekers in the Netherlands

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dublin III Regulation determines which EU Member State is responsible for examining asylum claims, but its implementation carries significant consequences for those subjected to it. This study examines how Dublin III, as implemented in the Netherlands, affects asylum seekers' psychosocial wellbeing using Silove′s Adaptation and Development

Inequalities of Fejer Type Related to Generalized Convex Functions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Analysis and Applications, 2018
This paper deals with some Fejer type inequalities related to (η1, η2)-convex functions. In fact the difference between the right and middle part of Fejer inequality is estimated without using Hölder’s inequality when the absolute value of the derivative
