Low‐Velocity Impact Response of Nacre‐Inspired E‐Glass/Epoxy Composites With Varying Platelet Sizes

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 2781-2798, 10 February 2026.
Impact response of nacre‐inspired E‐glass/epoxy composites with different platelet sizes. ABSTRACT This study explores the low‐velocity impact behavior of nacre‐inspired biomimetic platelet composites (NIBPC), using low‐cost E‐glass fiber in chopped strand mat (CSM) form as reinforcement and epoxy resin as the matrix.

Agent-Based Models and Simulations in Economics and Social Sciences: from conceptual exploration to distinct ways of experimenting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Now that complex Agent-Based Models and computer simulations spread over economics and social sciences - as in most sciences of complex systems -, epistemological puzzles (re)emerge. We introduce new epistemological tools so

Monotonicity Conditions in the Mimetic Finite Difference Method

open access: yes, 2011
The maximum principle is a major property of solutions of partial differential equations. In this work, we analyze a few constructive algorithms that allow one to embed this property into a mimetic finite difference (MFD) method. The algorithms search in the parametric family of MFD methods for a member that guarantees the discrete maximum principle ...

Evaluating Investment in Space Programs: A Case for Theoretical Pluralism

open access: yesFinancial Accountability &Management, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 19-35, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A perennial question repeatedly asked since the early Mercury (USA) and Salyut (then Soviet Union) space programs has been variations on the theme of “how can the cost of space exploration be justified?” This question—which in broad terms constitutes the research question considered in this paper—continues to be directed toward space agencies ...

On low order mimetic finite difference methods

open access: yes, 2012
These pages review two families of mimetic finite difference methods: the mixed-type methods presented in [Brezzi, Lipnikov, and Simoncini, M3AS, 2005] and the nodal methods of [Brezzi, Buffa, and Lipnikov, M2AN, 2009]. The purpose of this exercise it to highlight the similitudes underlying the construction of the two families.
