An Approximate Quasi-Newton Bundle-Type Method for Nonsmooth Optimization

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
An implementable algorithm for solving a nonsmooth convex optimization problem is proposed by combining Moreau-Yosida regularization and bundle and quasi-Newton ideas. In contrast with quasi-Newton bundle methods of Mifflin et al.

A New Sparse Quasi-Newton Update Method

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 2012
Based on the idea of maximum determinant positive definite matrix completion, Yamashita proposed a sparse quasi-Newton update, called MCQN, for unconstrained optimization problems with sparse Hessian structures.

Fluorescent Colored Passive Radiative Cooling Based on Carbon Dots for Cooling Power Recovery

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
We demonstrate colored passive radiative coolers consisting of a highly reflective porous ceramic base covered by an eco‐friendly luminescent carbon dot‐polymer composite, with two types of carbon dots enabling conversion of either ultraviolet or visible light, respectively.

Finite Element Analysis for Li Batteries at the Mesoscale

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Finite element analysis (FEA), through multi‐physics coupling, has been widely employed to calculate mesoscale structures in LIBs that exhibit inherent randomness and disorder (Figure a). It has been extensively applied to the investigation of critical phenomena such as Li dendrite evolution, Li+ concentration gradients, SEI film growth, particle ...

A Coupled AquaCrop–Richards Model for Improved Crop Yield Prediction Through Physically Based Soil Water Dynamics

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crop modelling is essential for agricultural water management but often relies on simplified water balance routines that limit representation of soil moisture dynamics. To address this limitation, we developed a coupled model that integrates the 1‐D Richards equation, solved using a finite difference method into the FAO AquaCrop.

The Hybrid BFGS-CG Method in Solving Unconstrained Optimization Problems

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
In solving large scale problems, the quasi-Newton method is known as the most efficient method in solving unconstrained optimization problems. Hence, a new hybrid method, known as the BFGS-CG method, has been created based on these properties, combining ...

Two Two‐Tier Stochastic Frontier Replications

Journal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We replicate the two foundational studies which proposed the two‐tier stochastic frontier model, first in the cross‐sectional setting and then for the fixed effects panel data model. We explore matters of software then and now, different mathematical formulations of the likelihood, and alternative current software tools.

Posterior tibial slope is linearly related to anteroposterior shift of the tibiofemoral contact mechanics: A biomechanical study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the changes in tibiofemoral contact mechanics following an infra‐tubercle slope‐modifying osteotomy. Methods An infra‐tubercle slope‐modifying osteotomy was performed on eight fresh‐frozen cadaveric knees and fixed with an external fixator, which allowed for accurate slope adjustments from 15° to 0° in 5° increments. The

A Reversible Clearing Strategy Enables Robust Label‐Free Phase Imaging of Thick Tissues

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
The principle of a reversible clearing strategy via glycerol and tartrazine solution (GTS) for robust whole‐slide label‐free phase imaging of thick tissue slices via high‐throughput Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) and lensless digital holographic microscopy (LDHM). ABSTRACT Thick biological specimens impose strong scattering and attenuation that
