State Capacity and Path Dependence in Cape Verde's Supreme Audit Institution
ABSTRACT This study examines state capacity and path dependence in the Supreme Audit Institution (SAI) of Cape Verde, focussing on the performance and governance of the Court of Auditors. Drawing on a mixed‐methods longitudinal design covering the period from 2010 to 2024, the analysis combines international governance indicators, documentary analysis,

Environmental and socio‐economic factors behind data provision in 17 citizen science projects
Abstract Citizen science approaches in ecology have recently become increasingly popular. Although many advantages, such as the cost‐effective collection of vast amounts of data, outweigh the disadvantages, most projects face difficulties, such as non‐random sampling, pseudo‐absences or various biases, such as detection/reporting biases or participant ...

Regularization method and a posteriori error estimates for the two membranes problem
This study presents a regularization method for the two membranes problem with non-homogeneous boundary conditions. We establish both convergence results and a priori estimates for this method.

Model adaptivity for finite element analysis of thin or thick plates based on equilibrated boundary stress resultants [PDF]
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to address error-controlled adaptive finite element (FE) method for thin and thick plates. A procedure is presented for determining the most suitable plate model (among available hierarchical plate models) for each ...

Realistic computable error bounds for three dimensional finite element analyses in linear elasticity
We obtain a computable estimator for the energy norm of the error in piecewise affine and piecewise quadratic finite element approximations of linear elasticity in three dimensions.

Medicinal plants used in ethnobotanical traditions to treat or prevent diseases have gained renewed interest for their largely untapped potential in drug discovery. In this study, we developed and tested novel methods to prioritise plant species based on their unexplored medicinal potential. By enabling researchers to target the most promising species,

Equilibration a Posteriori Error Estimation for Convection–Diffusion–Reaction Problems
We study a posteriori error estimates for convection–diffusion–reaction problems with possibly dominating convection or reaction and inhomogeneous boundary conditions.

Massive Sampling Strategy for Antibody–Antigen Targets in CAPRI Round 55 With MassiveFold
ABSTRACT Massive sampling with AlphaFold2 improves protein–protein complex predictions. This has been shown during the last CASP15‐CAPRI blind prediction round by the AFsample tool. However, more difficult targets including antibody–antigen binding remain challenging. CAPRI Round 55 consisted of three antibody–antigen targets and one heterotrimer.
