Continuous-time best-response and related dynamics in Tullock contests with convex costs by Elkind, E, Ghosh, A, Goldberg, PW

“…Tullock contests model real-life scenarios that range from competition among proof-of-work blockchain miners to rent-seeking and lobbying activities. We show that continuous-time best-response dynamics in Tullock contests with convex costs converges to the unique equilibrium using Lyapunov-style arguments. …”

Total Synthesis of Verticillin A and Application of Diazene-Directed Fragment Assembly to the Synthesis of Heterodimeric Epidithiodiketopiperazine Derivatives by Knauss, Walker

“…This is the first application of diazene-directed coupling to the synthesis of dimeric diketopiperazine alkaloids Our group’s initial route to heterodimeric ETP derivatives relied upon reductive cobalt dimerization, which produces a nearly statistical mixture of homo- and heterodimeric products. …”

Experimental and numerical study of self-locking adaptable inter connection for modular steel structures by Nadeem, Gohar, Safiee, Nor Azizi, Bakar, Nabilah Abu, Karim, Izian Abd, Mohd Nasir, Noor Azline

“…The results showed that reinforced joints sustained 80% of the limit of the rigid joint at an inter-story drift ratio of 0.04 radian and satisfied the condition for strong column weak beam joint mechanism. Non-linear Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was conducted on this adaptable connection with a parametric study to study more influences of other related parameters. …”

"Bartleby" in the evolution of the Gothic tradition. by Goh, Evan Yu Fan.

“…Herman Melville’s “Bartleby, The Scrivener: A Story of Wall Street” was first published in 1853, nearly a century after Walpole’s The Castle of Otranto, and sixty years after Brown’s Wieland. …”

Static elastic properties of composite materials containing microspheres by Jones, GW

“…Subsequently, we analyse the buckling criterion asymptotically in the limit as the thickness ratio tends to zero by analogy with the WKB analysis of a beam on a variable-stiffness substrate. To model the shell after buckling we consider the simplified case of an embedded shell with a crack around its equator. …”
