To negotiate or to game theorize: Negociation vs. game theory outcomes for water allocation problems in the Kat Basin, South Africa [PDF]

, 2006
Common property resource disputes are increasing, due to increase in competition and deterioration of quality. Cooperative arrangements have long been in the center of public interest regarding the mechanisms used by communities that share them. Two main approaches have been applied separately, namely negotiation approaches and cooperative game theory.

Characterization of Defect Distribution in an Additively Manufactured AlSi10Mg as a Function of Processing Parameters and Correlations with Extreme Value Statistics

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

Unidirectional Tape‐Based Composites from Hemp and Pineapple Leaf Fiber: Mechanical Performance in Conventional and Bio‐Based Matrices

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The study investigates novel semi‐finished products made of unidirectionally arranged hemp or pineapple leaf fiber‐reinforced composites produced from different matrices. The materials are analyzed in terms of their mechanical and interfacial properties and void content.

Enhancing Fatigue Performance by Tuning of Residual Stresses in Welded Joints through Nanometallic Multilayer

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the fundamental mechanisms of a novel postweld treatment that significantly enhances fatigue performance through engineered residual stress (RS) states. A multiscale approach correlates tensile RS in the nanometallic multilayer coating with corresponding compressive RS in the steel substrate, thereby reducing localized stress ...

Influence of Sample Preparation and Processing Procedures on the Thermal Diffusivity of MgO‐C Refractories

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The thermal diffusivity of MgO‐C refractories is highly sensitive to sample preparation and processing procedures. In this article, the effects of coking sequence, machining conditions, structural inhomogeneity, and graphite coating application on measurements using laser flash apparatus are systematically investigated.

Scaling in Tournaments

, 2006
We study a stochastic process that mimics single-game elimination tournaments. In our model, the outcome of each match is stochastic: the weaker player wins with upset probability ...

Engineering the Hierarchical Porosity of Granular Hydrogel Scaffolds Using Porous Microgels to Improve Cell Recruitment and Tissue Integration

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.
By fabricating and covalently assembling gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) porous microgels, a new class of granular hydrogel scaffolds with hierarchical porosity is developed. These scaffolds have a significantly higher void fraction than their counterparts made up of nonporous microgels, enhancing cell recruitment and tissue integration. This research may

Imitation and the Evolution of Walrasian Behavior: Theoretically Fragile but Behaviorally Robust [PDF]

A well-known result by Vega-Redondo (1997) implies that in symmetric Cournot oligopoly, imitation leads to the Walrasian outcome where price equals marginal cost.

Wearable Haptic Feedback Interfaces for Augmenting Human Touch

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The wearable haptic feedback interfaces enhance user experience in gaming, social media, biomedical instrumentation, and robotics by generating tactile sensations. This review discusses and categorizes current haptic feedback interfaces into force, thermal, and electrotactile stimulation‐based haptic feedback interfaces, elucidating their current ...
