1165. Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench
Summary Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench (Compositae: Heliantheae: Zinniinae) is described and illustrated with a colour plate and black and white text figure. An introduction to the history of the appearance of this species in the Magazine appears in brief, together with comments on the treatment of the genus, and the available generic revisions.

Pollution Permits and Financing Costs
Abstract Effective environmental policy should consider how the financiers of polluting firms behave. We study phase III of the EU Emission Trading System. Loan spreads for cap‐and‐trade participants are a function of compliance costs, permit market features, and firms’ strategic actions.

Multiobjective design optimization of a quadrupole resonator under uncertainties
For a precise determination of the rf properties of superconducting materials, a calorimetric measurement is carried out with the aid of a so-called quadrupole resonator (QPR).

Distributional uncertainty analysis using polynomial chaos expansions [PDF]
A computationally efficient approach is presented that quantifies the influence of parameter uncertainties on the states and outputs of finite-time control trajectories for nonlinear systems, based on the approximate representation of the model via polynomial chaos expansion.

Abstract figure legend Graphical representation of methods. We implemented three biventricular geometric models (Zenger et al., 2020) with rule‐based myocardial fibre orientations (Bayer et al., 2018). We evaluated variability in the fibre orientation via four sets of parameter distributions to determine the role of the primary and imbrication angles ...

Stochastic Optimization using Polynomial Chaos Expansions
Polynomial chaos based methods enable the efficient computation of output variability in the presence of input uncertainty in complex models. Consequently, they have been used extensively for propagating uncertainty through a wide variety of physical systems.

Traditional methods for identifying wheel–rail contact loads are based on deterministic models, in which the uncertainties such as material inhomogeneity and geometric tolerance are not considered. For wheel–rail contact load analysis with uncertainties,

Sensitivity Analysis of an Implanted Antenna within Surrounding Biological Environment
The paper describes the sensitivity analysis of a wireless power transfer link involving an implanted antenna within the surrounding biological environment. The approach combines a 3D electromagnetic modeling and a surrogate model (based polynomial chaos
