The Relationship Between Risk, Performance-Based Pay, and Organizational Performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
In this study, we argue that much of the recent agency-based research on performance based pay virtually omits the role of risk. This compensation research has predominantly taken the positive perspective and focused on the incentive properties of ...

Data‐Driven Distributed Safe Control Design for Multi‐Agent Systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
This paper presents a data‐driven control barrier function (CBF) technique for ensuring safe control of multi‐agent systems (MASs) with uncertain linear dynamics. A data‐driven quadratic programming (QP) optimization is first developed for CBF‐based safe control of single‐agent systems using a nonlinear controller. This approach is then extended to the

Building realistic assemblages with a Joint Species Distribution Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
1. Species distribution models (SDMs) can be used to predict how individual species---and whole assemblages of species---will respond to a changing environment. Until now, these models have either assumed (1) that species' occurrence probabilities are uncorrelated, or (2) that species respond linearly to preselected environmental variables.

Bistable Mechanisms 3D Printing for Mechanically Programmable Vibration Control

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a 3D‐printed bistable mechanism integrated into tuned mass dampers (TMDs) for mechanically adaptive passive vibration suppression. Through optimized geometry, the bistable design provides adaptable vibration reduction across a broad range of scenarios, achieving effective vibration mitigation without complex controls or external ...

Robocasting of a Water‐Based Biopolymer/WO3 Nanopowder Paste as a Precursor to Tungsten Carbide Lattices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates a novel, additive manufacturing approach to produce complex, porous tungsten carbide structures using water‐based direct ink writing/robocasting. Leveraging a modified commercial printer and heat treatment, the process yields lightweight, electrically conductive 3D architectures capable of supporting a mechanical load.

Multiscale Modeling of Process‐Induced Defects in Fused Filament Fabrication‐Printed Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a predictive multiscale modeling tool for defect analysis of fused filament fabricated‐printed materials and their performance prediction using a mechanistic data science‐based reduced‐order modeling approach. Process‐induced defects are inherent to additively manufactured parts and significantly influence the performance of printed

Effects of dosage and reactivity of modified dolomite dust waste on mechanical properties and shrink-resist of mortar

open access: yesDevelopments in the Built Environment
Dolomite dust waste (DDW) has the potential to be used as an expansive agent for mortar due to its richness in magnesium and calcium. This paper reports the possibility of developing low-cost expansive agent for mortar using DDW through various ...
