Nodal Analysis of Stirling Cycle Devices [PDF]
, 1978 This paper describes a general-purpose program for the nodal analysis of Stirling-cycle devices or other cyclic regenerative machines, and presents an extensive discussion of results for an illustrative problem. The program employs finite-difference, explicit-forward solutions, and is readily adaptable to various machine topologies.

Cristiano of Arabia: Did Ronaldo increase Saudi Pro League attendances?
Contemporary Economic Policy, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 260-270, April 2025.Abstract In December 2022, Cristiano Ronaldo, five‐time Ballon d’Or winner and the most‐followed person on Instagram, signed for Al‐Nassr in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This marked one of several expensive, recent interventions by the kingdom in global sports markets. We exploit the timing of this event to estimate superstar effects.

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Light can be used to deter bycatch from fishing nets, but few studies have aimed to quantify how species view and respond to light. Here, we used visual models to predict how target (plaice Pleuronectes platessa) and bycatch (small‐spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicular and undersized skates, Raja spp) species, captured in mixed demersal ...
