Existence of solutions for semilinear problems on exterior domains

Article proves the existence of an infinite number of radial solutions to ∆u+K(r)f(u) = 0 on ℝᶰ such that limᵣ →∞ u(r) = 0 with prescribed number of zeros on the exterior of the ball of radius R > 0 where f is odd with f < 0 on (0, β), f > 0 on (β, ∞) with f superlinear for large u, and K(r) ∼ r ⁻ᵅ with α > 2(N − 1).

The hygroscopicity of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) with a gradient fiber structure (open access)

The hygroscopicity of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) with a gradient fiber structure

This article studies the hygroscopicity of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) with a gradient fiber structure assessed by a dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) apparatus and fitted with a Haillwood–Horrobin (H–H) model. The effects of the chemical composition, gradient fiber structure, and mesopore structure of the bamboo were also investigated. The results demonstrate that the hygroscopicity of bamboo gradually increases from the outer to the inner layer along the thickness of the culm wall, which is related to the gradient distribution of the fibers. The structure–function relationships between the chemical composition, multi-scale structure, and hygroscopicity identified in this study provide a theoretical basis for bamboo drying and storage technology, as well as the processing and application of bamboo fiber-based composites.

Spatial Targeting of Agricultural Support Measures: Indicator-Based Assessment of Coverages and Leakages (open access)

Spatial Targeting of Agricultural Support Measures: Indicator-Based Assessment of Coverages and Leakages

This article evaluates the targeting strategy of a national-level program in Mexico that distributed agricultural support based on seven criteria that prioritized poor smallholder farming communities at high risk of cropland failure. The findings highlight the continued lack of financial support for smallholder agriculture in Mexico, despite program rules and priority statements that stress the vulnerability of this sector. The article also illustrates the important role of spatial targeting in better aligning agricultural support payments with stated policy priorities.

Comparing the Bayesian Unknown Change-Point Model and Simulation Modeling Analysis to Analyze Single Case Experimental Designs

This article compares two simulation-driven approaches: Bayesian unknown change-point model (BUCP) and simulation modeling analysis (SMA) for three real datasets that exhibit “clear” immediacy, “unclear” immediacy, and delayed effects. In the final analysis, it is recommended that both visual and statistical analyses be conducted for a thorough analysis of SCEDs.
