Intergroup Contact With Refugees Shapes Levels of Social Fear of Crime

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intergroup contact affects how people see the world more broadly. Across four studies (Ntotal = 1,743), we tested whether valenced intergroup contact with refugees as a criminally stigmatized group affects social fear of crime mediated by prejudice.

Experimental and Numerical Study on Enhancing the Performance of a Stepped Solar Still Using Porous Sponge Materials

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Three designs were built and tested: a single‐slope still, a six‐stepped still, and a six‐stepped still with 5 mm sponge sheets. The novelty lies in fixing porous sponge sheets to the vertical faces of the steps. Yield of freshwater and instantaneous efficiency were determined in various combinations, that is, base, stepped, and stepped‐cum‐sponge ...

Research on Thermal Runaway Multiphysics Coupling Simulation and Sensor Optimization Layout of Lithium Iron Phosphate Energy Storage Battery Packs

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study explores thermal runaway in lithium‐iron‐phosphate energy storage battery packs through multi‐physics coupling simulation. Thermal runaway evolves from battery cells (experiencing overcharge, bulging, safety valve opening, and gas venting) to battery clusters (a) and propagates within the battery pack (b). Simulation results indicate: stress

Scaling‐Aware Rating of Poisson‐Limited Demand Forecasts

open access: yesJournal of Forecasting, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forecast quality should be assessed in the context of what is possible in theory and what is reasonable to expect in practice. Often, one can identify an approximate upper bound to a probabilistic forecast's sharpness, which sets a lower, not necessarily achievable, limit to error metrics.

Care and COVID 19: Lessons for liberals and neoliberals

open access: yesChild &Family Social Work, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Within the liberal political traditions, care is regarded as a private matter, a problem of ethics rather than justice. Social justice is framed as an issue of economics (re/distribution), culture (recognition) and/or politics (representation).

Forecasting Natural Gas Prices in Real Time

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the forecastability of the real price of natural gas in the United States at the monthly frequency considering a universe of models that differ in complexity and economic content. We find that considerable reductions in mean‐squared prediction error relative to a no‐change benchmark can be ...

Impact of Formulation Ingredient Compatibility on Encapsulation of Hydrophobic Substances in Polymeric Nanocarriers Prepared by Nanoprecipitation

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, EarlyView.
Encapsulation of hydrophobic drugs in poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles strongly depends on solvent and polymer compatibility. By linking Hansen solubility parameters with atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses, the work reveals predictive markers of ...
