Review of Economics and Statistics, 2000 This paper considers the relationship between inequality and crime using data from urban counties. The behavior of property and violent crime are quite different. Inequality has no effect on property crime but a strong and robust impact on violent crime, with an elasticity above 0.5.

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.A constraint‐based analytical framework maps the coupled effects of material properties, structural parameters, and operating conditions in tubular dielectric elastomer pumps for extracorporeal circulatory applications. The approach defines performance boundaries through mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic constraints and identifies feasible design ...

IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2014 Information theoretical inequalities have strong ties with polymatroids and their representability. A polymatroid is entropic if its rank function is given by the Shannon entropy of the subsets of some discrete random variables. The book is a special iterated adhesive extension of a polymatroid with the property that entropic polymatroids have $n$-page

Complaints and inequality [PDF]
Social Choice and Welfare, 2004 The authors move beyond the Temkin suggestion [see \textit{L. S. Temkin}, Inequality, Oxford Ethics Ser., Oxford University Press, Oxford (1993)] about the nature of complaints and the way in which they may be aggregated in order to provide a rigorous analysis of a tape of inequality index and inequality literature.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Nonreciprocal Swarmalators With Reconfigurable and Controllable Formations for Robot Collectives
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.Nonreciprocal swarmalator interactions are enabled through control barrier functions to transform self‐organizing robot collectives into reconfigurable, constraint‐aware systems. Complex two‐ and three‐dimensional shapes, continuous morphing, obstacle‐aware navigation, collective splitting, and object transport emerge from modulating agent‐level ...
