Estimating crippling loss from hunting with multistate models: a case study on northern bobwhites

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Hunting as a recreational pursuit provides an important ecosystem service worldwide. Harvest management plays a vital role in regulating wildlife take to ensure long‐term population sustainability and meet value‐based objectives (e.g. hunter satisfaction). However, managers rarely have complete control or observability of harvest mortality.

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.

Investigating Breathing Dynamics of a 110 kV Oil‐Immersed Transformer Using Thermal‐Fluid‐Structure Interaction Modelling

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The breathing system of an oil‐immersed transformer is of vital importance for maintaining equilibrium between internal and external pressures, with any malfunction potentially disrupting the transformer's stable operation. This study develops a thermal–fluid–structure interaction (TFSI) model to simulate the breathing phenomenon in a 110 kV ...

Representing Symmetric Rank Two Updates [PDF]

open access: yes
Various quasi-Newton methods periodically add a symmetric "correction" matrix of rank at most 2 to a matrix approximating some quantity A of interest (such as the Hessian of an objective function).

Can prisons move people into better jobs? A look at correctional vocational training programs and sectoral employment outcomes

open access: yesCriminology, EarlyView.
Abstract Three‐quarters of US prisons offer vocational training programs, which aim to place trainees in middle‐skills jobs in specific occupational sectors post‐release. These middle‐skills jobs may more effectively reduce recidivism than the jobs that normally characterize the labor market experience of the formerly incarcerated, yet whether ...

Advancing Employee Voice Through Insights From Democratic Innovations

open access: yesHuman Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Employee voice has long attracted interest from academics, policymakers, and practitioners in light of its myriad benefits. To date, employee voice researchers have identified a wide array of voice practices that are organized and understood through a core set of dimensions.

Quasi-Newton's method with correction

open access: yesNovi Sad Journal of Mathematics - NSJOM, 1996
The problem of solving a system of nonlinear equations \(F(x) = 0\), where \(F:\mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^n\) is a nonlinear mapping of a special form \(F(x) = Ax + G(x)\) with linear part \(A \in \mathbb{R}^{n,n}\) and nonlinear part \(G:\mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^n\), is considered.

Survival Remains High in Griffon Vultures 40 Years After Reintroduction

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
The reintroduction of the Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) in French Grands Causses in 1981 is largely regarded as a significant translocation success. 40 years of quality data from intensive monitoring allows us to investigate the survival rates in this long‐lived population on the long term, but also to reflect on the crucial role of adaptive management
