Cross Section Measurement of Exclusive ϕ-Meson Electroproduction off the Proton at CLAS12 by Moran, Patrick

“…The mean-square gluonic radius of the proton ⟨b²⟩ subscript g is extracted from the t-dependence of the differential cross sections dσ / dt in the kinematic region 0.12 ≤ x subscript B ≤ 0.39, the first such measurement in the valence regime.…”

Interfacial phenomena and biological recognition of mammalian cells on biomimetic materials by Chan, Vincent.

“…Most biological processes leading to cellular functions and physiological regulations are driven by molecular interactions at the nano-scale regime. A good example is the specific recognition between protein and proteoglycan receptors embedded in cell membrane matrix and other biomolecules immobilized on extracellular matrix that trigger the signal transduction cascades of cells and tissues. …”

Effects of high loading rate on reinforced concrete beams by Fujikake, Kazunori, Adhikary, Satadru Das, Li, Bing

“…To supplement the limited literature in this field, 24 RC beams were tested under four different loading rates ranging from slow (4 × 10–4 m/s) to fast (2 m/s) to cover the wide range of loading scenarios (quasi-static, earthquakes, and impact regime). Comparative analyses of RC beams under these varying loading rates highlighted several key aspects of their dynamic behavior.…”

Variational study of the two‐impurity spin–boson model with a common Ohmic bath : ground‐state phase transitions by Zhou, Nengji, Zhang, Yuyu, Lü, Zhiguo, Zhao, Yang

“…Moreover, the ground‐state phase transition is inferred to be of first order in the presence of strong antiferromagnetic spin–spin coupling, at variance with that in the ferromagnetic regime or in the absence of spin–spin coupling where the transition belongs to the Kosterlitz–Thouless universality class.…”

Electricity sector deregulation and consumer protection: assessing the imperatives of a competition: Assessing the imperatives of a competition law and competition regulatory autho... by Usman, Dahiru Jafaru, Yaacob, Nurli, A. Rahman, Aspalella

“…Literature abounds on the high risk of the electricity sector deregulation and the susceptibility of the deregulated electricity markets to manipulations and abuse by the electricity service providers.For better and fair market operations and the protection of consumers’ interest, the paper adopts the doctrinal research approach and assesses the imperatives of competition law and competition structures in the deregulated Nigerian electricity market.The paper found that the Nigerian experiment took off without the necessary consumer protection structures such as a competition law and competition regulatory agency leaving the electricity consumers at the mercy of the electricity service providers.The paper concludes that the country urgently needs a comprehensive competition regime to guarantee consumer benefits and to prevent substituting public monopoly with a private monopoly in the new Nigerian electricity market.…”

Dynamics of a self-interacting sheet in shear flow by Funkenbusch, William T., Silmore, Kevin S., Doyle, Patrick S.

“…We use kinetic and energetic arguments to explain why sheets adopt certain conformations within the folded regime. Finally, we calculate the stresslet and find that, even in the absence of thermal fluctuations and multiple sheet interactions, shear-thinning followed by shear-thickening behavior can appear.…”

Learning from the Nordic Welfare Model : what and how? by Xiong, Jieru

“…Thus, the notion that there must be a trade-off between economic performance and a more aggressive welfare regime should be examined more thoroughly. The debate for policy makers should perhaps be framed with regard to where the balance should be between growth and equity rather than a trade-off. …”

Over the past 15 years the author has worked with several LA regional cyber security groups known as WARPs (Warning, Advice and Reporting Points). …”

FedCBO: reaching group consensus in clustered Federated learning through Consensus-Based Optimization by Carrillo, JA, Trillos, NG, Li, S, Zhu, Y

“…Our model is motivated by rigorous mathematical reasoning, including a mean field analysis describing the large number of particles limit of our particle system, as well as convergence guarantees for the simultaneous global optimization of general non-convex objective functions (corresponding to the loss functions of each cluster of users) in the mean-field regime. Experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of our FedCBO algorithm compared to other state-of-the-art methods and help validate our methodological and theoretical work.…”
