Temperature response surfaces for mortality risk of tree species with future drought
, 2017 Widespread, high levels of tree mortality, termed forest die-off, associated with drought and rising temperatures, are disrupting forests worldwide. Drought will likely become more frequent with climate change, but even without more frequent drought ...

The initial inflammatory response to bioactive implants is characterized by NETosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Implants trigger an inflammatory response, which is important for osseointegration. Here we studied neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) release of human neutrophils in response to sandblasted large-grit acid etched (SLA) implants using fluorescent ...

Possibilistic response surfaces: incorporating fuzzy thresholds into bottom-up flood vulnerability analysis [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2021 Several alternatives have been proposed to shift the paradigms of water management under uncertainty from predictive to decision-centric. An often-mentioned tool is the response surface mapping system performance with a large sample of future ...

Fast computation of the Kohn-Sham susceptibility of large systems [PDF]
, 2005 For hybrid systems, such as molecules grafted onto solid surfaces, the calculation of linear response in time dependent density functional theory is slowed down by the need to calculate, in N^4 operations, the susceptibility of N non interacting Kohn ...

Static and sliding contact of rough surfaces: effect of asperity-scale properties and long-range elastic interactions [PDF]
, 2018 Friction in static and sliding contact of rough surfaces is important in numerous physical phenomena. We seek to understand macroscopically observed static and sliding contact behavior as the collective response of a large number of microscopic ...

Calculating the sensitivity of wind turbine loads to wind inputs using response surfaces
, 2016 This paper presents a methodology to calculate wind turbine load sensitivities to turbulence parameters through the use of response surfaces. A response surface is a highdimensional polynomial surface that can be calibrated to any set of input/output ...
