Introducing Preference Heterogeneity into a Monocentric Urban Model: an Agent-Based Land Market Model [PDF]
, 2008 This paper presents an agent-based urban land market model. We first replace the centralized price determination mechanism of the monocentric urban market model with a series of bilateral trades distributed in space and time.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Laser surface texturing significantly improves the corrosion resistance and mechanical strength of 3D‐printed iron polylactic acid (Ir‐PLA) for marine applications. Optimal laser parameters reduce corrosion by 80% and enhance tensile strength by 25% and ductility by 15%.

Dynamic Precipitation during High‐Pressure Torsion of a Magnesium–Manganese Alloy
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.An ultrafine‐grained alloy is produced by high‐pressure torsion of solutionized Mg–1.35 wt% Mn. Precipitation of nanometer‐scale Mn particles during deformation provides pinning sites. This prevents the formation of a bimodal grain structure and results in a finer grain size than for pure Mg.

Combining and Comparing Consumers' Stated Preference Ratings and Choice Responses [PDF]
In this study we develop and test an econometric model for combining choice and preference ratings data collected from the same set of individuals.Choice data are modeled using a multinomial logit framework, while preference data are modeled using an ...

Direct Alignment with Heterogeneous Preferences
Proceedings of the 5th ACM Conference on Equity and Access in Algorithms, Mechanisms, and OptimizationAlignment with human preferences is commonly framed using a universal reward function, even though human preferences are inherently heterogeneous. We formalize this heterogeneity by introducing user types and examine the limits of the homogeneity assumption.

Experimental Analysis and Physics‐Based Analytical Model on Twisted and Coiled Artificial Muscles
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Twisted and coiled artificial muscles made from silver‐coated nylon fibers are investigated through experiments and analytical modeling. The actuators achieve contractions up to 19.3% and specific work of 8 kJ kg−1, though efficiency remains limited (≈0.15%) by thermal losses.
