Counterion Dependent Side‐Chain Relaxation Stiffens a Chemically Doped Thienothiophene Copolymer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Oxidation of a thienothiophene copolymer, p(g3TT‐T2), via different doping strategies and dopant molecules resulted in materials with similar oxidation levels and a high electrical conductivity of ≈100 S cm−1. However, mechanical properties varied significantly, with sub‐glass transition temperatures and elastic moduli spanning from –44°C to –3°C and ...

Benford Behavior in Stick Fragmentation Problems

Stats
Benford’s law states that in many real-world datasets, the probability that the leading digit is d equals log10((d+1)/d) for all 1≤d≤9. We call this weak Benford behavior.

Modelling world energy security data from multinomial distribution by generalized linear model under different cumulative link functions

Open Chemistry, 2018
Energy security is one of the major components of energy sustainability in the world’s energy performance. In this study, energy security is taken as an ordinal response variable coming from the multinomial distribution with the energy grade levels A, B,

Micro and Nanostructural Diversity of Lizard Osteoderm Capping Tissue in Relation to Mechanical Performance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study shows that lizard osteoderm capping tissue is a hyper‐mineralized hydroxyapatite layer consistently covering the superficial osteoderm surface in those species studied here, yet it varies greatly in morphology, nanostructure, and mechanical performance across species.

Exact Tests for Two-Way Contingency Tables with Structural Zeros

Journal of Statistical Software, 2008
Fisher's exact test, named for Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher, tests contingency tables for homogeneity of proportion. This paper discusses a generalization of Fisher's exact test for the case where some of the table entries are constrained to be zero.

Another approach to the evaluation of a certain multivariate compound distribution

Analele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2016
In this work, we consider the multivariate aggregate model introduced in [11], model that takes into account the case when different types of claims affect in the same time an insurance portfolio under some specific assumptions related to the number of ...

MagPiezo: A Magnetogenetic Platform for Remote Activation of Endogenous Piezo1 Channels in Endothelial Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
MagPiezo enables wireless activation of endogenous Piezo1 channels without genetic modification using 19 nm magnetic nanoparticles and low‐intensity magnetic fields. It generates torque forces at the piconewton scale to trigger mechanotransduction in endothelial cells, standing as a novel platform to interrogate and manipulate Piezo1 activity in vitro.
