How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Carleman estimates for singular parabolic equations with interior degeneracy and non-smooth coefficients

open access: yesAdvances in Nonlinear Analysis, 2017
We establish Carleman estimates for singular/degenerate parabolic Dirichlet problems with degeneracy and singularity occurring in the interior of the spatial domain.

Firm turnover under asymmetric information: Tanzania's agro‐dealer sector

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract We study firm turnover (i.e., entry and exit) and its consumer implications in a market characterized by asymmetric information. Using a three‐round census of agro‐dealers in Tanzania's Morogoro Region, we document annual firm entry and exit rates of 33% and 17%, respectively.

Null controllability of a model in population dynamics

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2014
In this article, we study the null controllability of a linear model with degenerate diffusion in population dynamics. We develop first a Carleman type inequality for the adjoint system of an intermediate model, and then an observability inequality.

Hidden in the Labour Market: An Intersectional Latent Class Analysis of Discouraged Workers in Australia

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study employs an intersectionality‐informed latent class analysis (LCA) to examine the hidden diversity of discouraged workers in Australia. Drawing on nationally representative data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia Survey, we identified six empirically distinct subgroups defined by intersecting demographic and ...

Observable set, observability, interpolation inequality and spectral inequality for the heat equation in R^n

open access: yes, 2017
This paper studies connections among observable sets, the observability inequality, the Hölder-type interpolation inequality and the spectral inequality for the heat equation in R n. We present the characteristic of observable sets for the heat equation.

Reachability of a second-order integro-differential equation on Riemannian manifold for a viscoelasticity model

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2019
We study a reachability problem for a second-order integro-differential equation on a finite-dimensional Riemannian manifold, which is a model equation for viscoelasiticity.

Framing anatomical variation in anatomy textbooks: Language use and its implications

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Text mining of anatomy textbooks shows “abnormal” is the most frequently used descriptor for anatomical variation, reinforcing a binary framing. We advocate for explicit teaching of variation as a spectrum, with consistent, neutral terminology and contextualization (prevalence and functional relevance) to support a more nuanced understanding of ...

Recovering the uniform boundary observability with spectral Legendre-Galerkin formulations of the 1-D wave equation

open access: yes, 2021
15 figuresInternational audienceFor a Legendre-Galerkin semi-discretization of the 1-D homogeneous wave equation, the high frequency components of the numerical solution prevent us from obtaining the boundary observability (inequality), uniformly with ...
