Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.Processing‐property relationships in thermoplastic starch (TPS): plasticizer type, starch source and melt‐processing temperature establish a hierarchy of effects that governs process‐induced changes and the resulting TPS properties. ABSTRACT Thermoplastic starch (TPS) is a melt‐processable biopolymer whose properties depend strongly on formulation and ...

Moisture Absorption in Highly Porous Closed‐Cell Polymeric Foams
Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.The conventional one‐dimensional hindered diffusion model has been extended into a new Void Filling Hindered Diffusion Model. By quantifying the moisture stored within closed‐cell pores, this model successfully captures the distinct absorption behaviors observed across varying foam thicknesses.

A general approach to regularizing inverse problems with regional data using Slepian wavelets
, 2017 Slepian functions are orthogonal function systems that live on subdomains (for example, geographical regions on the Earth's surface, or bandlimited portions of the entire spectrum). They have been firmly established as a useful tool for the synthesis and

Molecular Basis for Uracil‐DNA‐Glycosylase to Identify DNA Damage in the Nucleosome
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The DNA base‐excision repair (BER) pathway is initiated by a glycosylase, such as uracil‐DNA‐glycosylase (UDG), which identifies and removes a wrong base incorporated in the DNA sequence. The very early steps in the identification of the DNA damage are crucial to the correct initiation of the repair chain, and become even more complex when ...

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Allosteric communication is fundamental to the function of proteins, but identifying the residue‐level pathways through which signals travel and their directionality is still a major challenge. Here we present a multi‐metric information‐theoretic framework that identifies candidate allosteric communication pathways from a single protein ...

New views of some invariants associated with the Cartesian 2D velocity gradient tensor
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Vorticity and divergence of horizontal flow are fundamental quantities in meteorology; both are linear functions of the four elements of the 2D velocity gradient tensor and both are formally unchanged under coordinate rotation. We explore four quadratic functions of the elements that are geometrically invariant in this sense, finding some novel ...

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Numerical weather prediction output necessitates calibration, as weather model systems are unable to replicate the correct statistics of observations. Such processing is especially important when predicting extreme weather. Calibration methods function by learning from prediction inadequacies during a training phase and by exploiting this information ...

Efficient MCMC and posterior consistency for Bayesian inverse problems [PDF]
Many mathematical models used in science and technology often contain parameters that are not known a priori. In order to match a model to a physical phenomenon, the parameters have to be adapted on the basis of the available data.

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The importance of frequency domain methods in analysis and design of sliding mode (SM) control systems is mostly associated with chattering, where the advantages of these methods over state‐space and Lyapunov's methods are quite obvious.

High‐Order Sliding‐Mode control for MIMO Systems
International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper extends Lyapunov‐based homogeneous high‐order sliding‐mode control to a class of uncertain non‐square multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with a well‐defined vector relative degree. The considered systems admit a normal‐form representation with an uncertain but full‐row‐rank input‐gain matrix.
