Methanol With Increased Water Content in Internal Combustion Engines
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.This study investigates the potential to improve overall Well‐to‐Wheel efficiency by using low‐purity methanol from synthesis of hydrogen and furnace gas as CO2‐source. Combustion efficiency is comparable to pure methanol, while distillation energy could be saved.

Measuring and explaining economic inequality: An extension of the Gini coefficient. [PDF]
This paper proposes a new class of inequality indices based on the Gini’s coefficient. The properties of the indices are studied and in particular they are found to be regular, relative and satisfy the Pigou-Dalton transfer principle.

Nonlinear permuted Granger causality
Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Granger causality is an established, contentious method that seeks causal temporal connections via association and precedence. While not true causal inference, it assists in mapping networks of information flow that may warrant further study.

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.Abstract Homogeneous normalized random measures with independent increments represent a broad class of Bayesian nonparametric priors and thus are widely used. In this article, we obtain the strong law of large numbers, the central limit theorem (CLT), and the functional central limit theorem (fCLT) of such measures when the concentration parameter a ...

Stability of Viscous Three‐Dimensional Stratified Couette Flow via Dispersion and Mixing
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article explores the stability of stratified Couette flow in the viscous 3d$3d$ Boussinesq equations. In this system, mixing effects arise from the shearing background, and gravity acts as a restoring force leading to dispersive internal gravity waves.

A Geometric Characterization of Steady Laminar Flow
Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study the steady states of the Euler equations on the periodic channel or annulus. We show that if these flows are laminar (layered by closed non‐contractible streamlines which foliate the domain), then they must be either parallel or circular flows.

Long‐Acting Therapeutics in Pediatric Health: Bridging Innovation and Access
Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Children have distinct therapeutic needs arising from age‐dependent physiology, disease epidemiology, formulation requirements, dosing considerations, and safety vulnerabilities. Despite substantial reductions in childhood mortality over the past three decades, nearly 5 million children under five died in 2023, with infectious diseases continuing to ...
