Structure of mushy layers grown from perfectly and imperfectly conducting boundaries. Part 1. Diffusive solidification by Hitchen, JR, Wells, AJ

“…For an isothermal boundary we characterise different growth regimes depending on a concentration ratio, which can also be viewed as characterising the ratio of composition-dependent freezing point depression versus the temperature difference across the mushy layer. …”

A River Discharge Model for Coastal Taiwan during Typhoon Morakot by Mirabito, Christopher, Haley, Jr, Patrick J., Lermusiaux, Pierre F., Leslie, Wayne G.

“…In the coastal waters of Taiwan, freshwater discharge from rivers can be an important source of uncertainty in regional ocean simulations. This e ect becomes especially acute during extreme storm events such as typhoons. …”

Dynamic properties of high-Tc superconducting nano-junctions made with a focused helium ion beam by Couëdo, François, Amari, Paul, Feuillet-Palma, Cheryl, Ulysse, Christian, Srivastava, Yogesh Kumar, Singh, Ranjan, Bergeal, Nicolas, Lesueur, Jérôme

“…At lower temperature and for the highest He irradiation dose, the shot noise contribution must also be taken into account when approaching the tunneling regime. We conclude that these Josephson nano-junctions present the lowest noise level possible, which makes them very promising for future applications in the microwave and terahertz regimes.…”

Predictability of exchange rates with taylor rule fundamentals : evidence from inflation-targeting emerging countries by Alba, Joseph Dennis, Park, Donghyun, Xie, Taojun

“…We investigate the out-of-sample predictability of U.S. dollar exchange rates with Taylor rule fundamentals in thirteen emerging countries with inflation-targeting monetary policy regimes. We find some evidence of out-of-sample exchange rate predictability for Brazil, Czech Republic, Hungary, Philippines, Thailand, and South Africa. …”

1-in-3 vs. not-all-equal: dichotomy of a broken promise by Ciardo, L, Kozik, M, Krokhin, A, Nakajima, T-V, Živný, S

“…In the present work, we investigate this constraint satisfaction problem in a regime where the promise is weakened from either side by a rainbow-free structure, and establish a complexity dichotomy for the resulting class of computational problems.…”

Dual-channel vendor-buyer system with minimum purchase commitment and price-sensitive demand by Li, Bo

“…For the two channels, the direct channel is shipping from the vendor’s central distribution center (CDC) directly to the buyer’s warehouse, and the indirect channel is shipping from the CDC via vendor’s regional distribution center (RDC) to the buyer’s warehouse. …”
