Estimating the BenefiÂ…t of High School for College-Bound Students [PDF]

open access: yes
Studies based on instrumental variable techniques suggest that the value of a high school education is large for potential dropouts, yet we know much less about the size of the benefiÂ…t for students who will go on to post-secondary education.

Experimental Evaluation of 100Cr6 Steel Microindented Surfaces Under Lubricated Nonconformal Point Contacts

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

Gendered Paths Into STEM-Related and Language-Related Careers: Girls’ and Boys’ Motivational Beliefs and Career Plans in Math and Language Arts

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
Women are often underrepresented in math-intensive fields like the physical sciences, technology, engineering and mathematics. By comparison, boys relative to girls are less likely to strive for jobs in social and human-services domains.

The development of mathematics expectancy-value profiles during the secondary–tertiary transition into STEM fields

open access: yesInternational Journal of STEM Education
Background To master the secondary–tertiary transition into fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), academic self-beliefs play a pivotal role, especially those related to learning mathematics. The framework of expectancy-value

The idempotent Radon--Nikodym theorem has a converse statement

open access: yes, 2013
Idempotent integration is an analogue of the Lebesgue integration where $\sigma$-additive measures are replaced by $\sigma$-maxitive measures. It has proved useful in many areas of mathematics such as fuzzy set theory, optimization, idempotent analysis ...

A Workflow to Accelerate Microstructure‐Sensitive Fatigue Life Predictions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a workflow to accelerate predictions of microstructure‐sensitive fatigue life. Results from frameworks with varying levels of simplification are benchmarked against published reference results. The analysis reveals a trade‐off between accuracy and model complexity, offering researchers a practical guide for selecting the optimal ...
