Incomplete LU Preconditioner Based on Max-Plus Approximation of LU Factorization
We present a new method for the a priori approximation of the orders of magnitude of the entries in the LU factors of a complex or real matrix A. This approximation is used to determine the positions of the largest entries in...

Mild Hydrothermal Crystallization of Heavy Rare-Earth Chromite RECrO3 (RE = Er, Tm, Yb, Lu) Perovskites and Magnetic Properties.
Shan Wang, Xiaofeng Wu, Tiesheng Wang, Jiaqi Zhang, Chenyang Zhang, Long Yuan, Xiaoqiang Cui, Dayong Lu
Feb 18, 2019
Crystallization of perovskite structure chromites (ACrO3) in aqueous conditions is difficult owing to the amphoteric nature of the Cr3+ in the alkaline-mediated reaction conditions. This is especially true for the small metal...

A Comparison of the Structural Chemistry of Scandium, Yttrium, Lanthanum and Lutetium
Data deposited in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) for compounds of scandium, yttrium, lanthanum and lutetium(III) have been analysed to assess the structural similarities of complexes of the different metal ions. 29 sets...

Influence of a novel, versatile bifunctional chelator on theranostic properties of a minigastrin analogue.
Joachim Pfister, Dominik Summer, Christine Rangger, Milos Petrik, Elisabeth von Guggenberg, Paolo Minazzi, Giovanni B Giovenzana, Luigi Aloj, Clemens Decristoforo
Dec 18, 2018
BACKGROUND: 6-[Bis(carboxymethyl)amino]-1,4-bis(carboxymethyl)-6-methyl-1,4-diazepane (AAZTA ) is a promising chelator with potential advantages over 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) for...
The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services or the Framing of Scientific Knowledge within the Law of Sustainable Development
LU Duvic-Paoli
Feb 08, 2017
The article analyses the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) through the spectrum of international environmental law. It unpacks the epistemic logics within which IPBES...
“Small, yet Beautiful”
We reconsider whether a grand multi-winner contest elicits more equilibrium effort than a collection of sub-contests. Fu and Lu (2009) employ a sequential winner-selection mechanism and find support for running a grand contest....
Experimental Evaluation of Conductive Flow Imaging Using Magnetic Induction Tomography
Multi-phase flow imaging is a challenging topic in industrial process tomography. In this paper, we present a non-invasive imaging technique for the electrically conductive phase of a multi-phase flow problem. Magnetic induction...
Schedule design for liner services under vessel speed reduction incentive programs
Gas and particulate emissions from ship transportation have been increasing in recent years. In order to mitigate ship emissions near coastal areas, voluntary vessel speed reduction incentive programs (VSRIPs) were put in...
Magnetic induction tomography methods and applications
Magnetic induction tomography (MIT) is a tomographic technique capable of imaging the passive electromagnetic properties of an object. It has the advantages of being contact-less and non-invasive, as the process involves...

A Pilot Project Using a Community Approach to Support Child Protection Services in China
This article documents how a community approach was used as part of developing a child protection service in China. In order to demonstrate the potential of the community approach, it is first argued that the fragmented...
Member stability of stainless steel welded I-section beam-columns
A comprehensive experimental and numerical study is presented into the behaviour of stainless steel welded I-section beams-columns. Twenty test specimens were fabricated from grade 304 (EN 1.4301) austenitic and grade 2205 (EN...

Bond stress-slip relationship in concrete-filled square stainless steel tubes
The application of stainless steel tubes in concrete-filled steel tube systems can significantly improve their corrosion resistance in comparison with those that employ carbon steel tubes. In this paper, a series of push-out...
Decision models for personal shopper platform operations optimization
The ‘lazy economy’ gives rise to an emerging business mode, called personal shopper platforms (PSPs). A customer who needs some goods urgently can release an order on a PSP, which is then assigned by the platform to a...
Accuracy of death certification of dementia in population-based samples of older people
Lu Gao, Rowan Calloway, Emily Zhao, Carol Brayne, Fiona E Matthews, Medical Research Council Cognitive Function and Ageing Collaboration
Jul 10, 2018
BACKGROUND: death certification data are routinely collected in most developed countries. Coded causes of death are a readily accessible source and have the potential advantage of providing complete follow-up, but with...
