New Quasi-Newton (Dfp) With Logistic Mapping

open access: yesScience Journal of University of Zakho, 2016
In this paper, we propose a modification of the self-scaling quasi-Newton (DFP) method for unconstrained optimization using logistic mapping. We shoe that it produces a positive definite matrix.

Voting in Ruins: Examining the Effect of a Tornado on Voting Behavior Toward Coalition Government Parties

open access: yesEconomics &Politics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The electoral effects of natural disasters have gained increasing importance in recent research. This paper analyzes the impact of an unprecedentedly strong tornado on the electoral results of coalition government parties in the 2021 Czech general election.

Convergence and Stability Improvement of Quasi-Newton Methods by Full-Rank Update of the Jacobian Approximates

open access: yesAppliedMath
A system of simultaneous multi-variable nonlinear equations can be solved by Newton’s method with local q-quadratic convergence if the Jacobian is analytically available.

Numerical Modeling of Hydrogen‐Assisted Cracking With Phase Field Regularized Cohesive Zone Model and Penalty‐Based Moving Hydrogen Boundary Condition

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The degradation of metallic materials due to hydrogen embrittlement (HE) poses critical challenges for structural reliability. Phase‐field models offer an energy‐based approach that does not require predefined crack paths and automatically determines crack initiation, growth, and coalescence.

The Effect of Listening Strategy Intervention on the Development of Young Learners’ L2 Listening Skills

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impact of strategy intervention on second language (L2) listening development has been explored in various contexts; however, research on both implicit and explicit listening strategy interventions for young learners remains limited.

Inshore marine coastal zone migration patterns in Atlantic salmon post‐smolts emigrating from eight rivers in north‐east Scotland

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, migrate through multiple habitat types, each having the potential to impact differently upon migration success. The inshore marine coastal zone is arguably disproportionately impacted by potential stressors on populations.

Heterogeneity in Manufacturing Growth Risk

open access: yesJournal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We analyze differences in output growth risk with respect to financial conditions across U.S. manufacturing industries. Using a multilevel quantile regression approach, we find that industries exhibit heterogeneous increases of downside risk in times of tight financial conditions, while upside potential remains stable.

Morphology and osteo‐histology of the weigeltisaurid wing: Implications for aerial locomotion in the world's first gliding reptiles

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates the morphology and osteo‐histology of the wing skeleton of the world's first gliding reptiles, showing how it differs from those of extant gliding lizards, yet is also convergently similar. These findings pave the way for future biomechanical studies on the gliding locomotion of these emblematic fossil animals. Abstract The Late

Properties and Application of Incomplete Orthogonalization in the Directions of Gradient Difference in Optimization Methods

open access: yesMathematics
This paper considers the problem of unconstrained minimization of smooth functions. Despite the high efficiency of quasi-Newton methods such as BFGS, their performance degrades in ill-conditioned problems with unstable or rapidly varying Hessians—for ...
