Laser Interference Lithography for Fabrication of Planar Scale Gratings for Optical Metrology

Nanomanufacturing and Metrology, 2021
Laser interference lithography is an attractive method for the fabrication of a large-area two-dimensional planar scale grating, which can be employed as a scale for multi-axis optical encoders or a diffractive optical element in many types of optical ...

Consumers' Willingness to Pay a Premium for Climate‐Friendly Food Production: The Role of Production Method Information and Social Norms

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether information about production methods and social norms can increase consumers' willingness to pay (WTP) a price premium for food produced using climate‐friendly farming methods. A randomized survey experiment was conducted with 1568 respondents across Denmark, Lithuania, and Spain, who were assigned to one of four ...

Kernel k-Groups via Hartigan’s Method [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, 2017
Energy statistics was proposed by Székely in the 80’s inspired by Newton’s gravitational potential in classical mechanics and it provides a model-free hypothesis test for equality of distributions.

Adults With Intellectual Disability Moving out of the Family Home Using the National Disability Insurance Scheme: Family Members' Planning Experiences

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For adults with intellectual disability and their families, future planning and moving out of the family home in Australia will increasingly occur within the context of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). As a market‐based, individualised funding system its impact on this transition remains largely unknown. This paper reports on a

Evaluation of NOₓ emission and dispersion from marine ships in Klaipeda sea port

Journal of Environmental Engineering and Landscape Management, 2014
The aim of the presented research was to assess the NOx emission and dispersion from marine ships in Klaipeda sea port. NOx emissions from ships operating in Klaipeda sea port were calculated using the Lloyd's Register detailed ship movement method ...

Finite element analysis of feeding in red and gray squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris and Sciurus carolinensis)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

New craniodental materials of Falcarius utahensis (Theropoda: Therizinosauria) reveal patterns of intraspecific variation and cranial evolution in early coelurosaurians

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known

Effects of intermittent exposure to hypobaria and cold on the microarchitecture and morphofunctional profile of rat gastrocnemius muscle

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH) enhances oxygen transport, muscle metabolism, and cardiovascular health; however, the combined effects of hypobaria and cold are less well understood. Exposure to these stressful environmental factors, even intermittently, can affect skeletal muscle due to its plasticity, thereby altering its metabolic and ...
