An Integrated Vehicle, Payload, and Trajectory Optimization Framework for Highly-Coupled Aircraft Systems by Dewald, Annick J.

“…These design points are then evaluated within the objective space, a hyperspace where each axis corresponds to a different objective, to understand the performance capabilities with respect to each objective and evaluate trade-offs between objectives. Findings from this objective space exploration can then be communicated to the science stakeholder to find the design that is best capable of meeting the identified science mission needs. …”

Cooperative field localization and excitation eigenmodes in disordered metamaterials by Papasimakis, Nikitas, Jenkins, Stewart D., Savo, Salvatore, Zheludev, Nikolay I., Ruostekoski, Janne

“…The methods allow us to calculate local field and Purcell factor enhancement arising from the collective electric and magnetic excitations. We find substantially increased standard deviation of the Purcell enhancement with disorder, making it increasingly likely to find collective excitation eigenmodes with very high Purcell factors that are also stronger for magnetic than electric excitations. …”

The effects of online social interactions on life satisfaction of older Chinese adults: new insights based on a longitudinal approach by Zhou, Dong, Xu, Yi, Ai, Pengya

“…Based on a nationally representative sample of around 5200 older adults in China over the period of 2014-2018, we explore the effects of online social interactions (OSIs) on the life satisfaction of older adults. We find that OSIs can improve the levels of life satisfaction of older Chinese adults. …”

Leveling the playing field: the selection and motivation effects of tournament prize spread information by Cardinaels, Eddy, Chen, Clara Xiaoling, Yin, Huaxiang

“…Thus, the availability of prize spread information produces a separation of employees based on ability. We also find that employees exert more effort when they can select into a tournament than when they are randomly assigned to one (which proxies for an environment where prize spread information is absent). …”
