Trust, ethnic diversity, and personal contact: A field experiment
(2019-03-22)
We study how close personal contact with minorities affects in-group and out-group trust in a field experiment in the armed forces. Soldiers are randomly assigned to rooms with or without ethnic minorities. At the end of ...
p-Adic Brownian Motion as a Limit of Discrete Time Random Walks
(2019-05-25)
Abstract. The p-adic di usion equation is a pseudo di erential equation that is formally
analogous to the real di usion equation. The fundamental solutions to pseudo
di erential equations that generalize the p-adic di ...
An Integral Line-of-Sight Guidance Law with a Speed-dependent Lookahead Distance
(2018)
This paper presents an algorithm that makes an underactuated marine vehicle follow a straight line path while in the presence of a constant ocean current. When following the path, the vehicle maintains a desired surge speed ...
Development of neuropathology following soman poisoning and medical countermeasures
(2018)
Nerve agent-induced seizures can cause varying degrees of neuropathology depending on level of poisoning and duration of seizing. The intention of this review was to validate a novel approach for establishing effective ...
On the size of intermediate results in the federated processing of SPARQL BGPs
(2018)
This paper is a foundational study in the semantics of federated query answering of SPARQL BGPs. Its specific concern is to explore how the size of intermediate results can be reduced without, from a logical point of view, ...
A 3D Reactive Collision Avoidance Algorithm for Nonholonomic Vehicles
(2018)
This paper presents a 3D reactive collision avoidance algorithm for vehicles with nonholonomic constraints. The algorithm steers the heading and pitch angle of the vehicle in order to maintain a constant avoidance angle ...
Exact 3D scattering solutions for spherical symmetric scatterers
(2018)
In this paper, exact solutions to the problem of acoustic scattering by elastic spherical symmetric scatterers are developed. The scatterer may consist of an arbitrary number of fluid and solid layers, and scattering with ...
Breathing patterns indicate cost of exercise during diving and response to experimental sound exposures in long-finned pilot whales
(2018)
Air-breathing marine predators that target sub-surface prey have to balance the energetic benefit of foraging against the time, energetic and physiological costs of diving. Here we use on-animal data loggers to assess ...
Investigation of new orexin 2 receptor modulators using in silico and in vitro methods
(2018)
The neuropeptides, orexin A and orexin B (also known as hypocretins), are produced in hypothalamic neurons and belong to ligands for orphan G protein-coupled receptors. Generally, the primary role of orexins is to act as ...
How to assess good candidate molecules for self-activated optical power limiting
(2018)
Reverse saturable absorbers have shown great potential to attenuate laser radiation. Good candidate molecules and various particles have successfully been incorporated into different glass matrices, enabling the creation ...
