Design/methodology/approach To obtain new methods of error representation for a posteriori and goal-oriented error estimators, weak forms of primal and dual problems are investigated starting with the initial boundary value problem (IBVP). Then, we approximate both problems using temporal discretization. Additionally, we introduce a secant form considering the nonlinearity of elasto-plastic constitutive equations, which is approximated by a tangent form. Finally, we obtain numerical primal and dual solutions and their corresponding error approximations of discretized primal and dual problems, allowing to build several goal-oriented a posteriori error estimators on temporal and spatial adaptive refinement by inserting primal solutions, dual solutions and their error approximations as arguments in residuals of both weak forms as well as in the secant form of the bilinear residual. Findings An elasto-plastic material is investigated in a framework of goal-oriented error estimator by using separately several methods of error representation to deal with either temporal or spatial adaptive refinement, as well as with both refinements leading to an effective reduction of computational effort. Specifically, new error representations based on goal-oriented error estimators are presented and obtained from primal and dual residuals, which use only primal solutions or only dual solutions or a combination of primal and dual solutions as arguments. Error representations obtained from primal residuals and evaluated using only primal arguments do not require the formulation of a dual problem. Research limitations/implications The effectiveness of the different proposed methods is illustrated by an example of a perforated sheet for adaptive spatial refinement where new mesh adaptation methods of error representation are compared against existing mesh adaptation methods such as uniform mesh refinement, mesh refinement based on gradient indicators and adjoint-based methods in literature. The framework generates a balanced mesh consisting of fine, medium and coarse elements for accurate results, avoiding a numerically costly simulation with only fine elements. Originality/value All new proposed methods of error representation successfully estimate actual errors during mesh adaptivity. Furthermore, the proposed methods of error representation allow us to obtain significant reduction and equidistribution of spatial error at the end of the mesh adaptivity process. Their application to a framework of goal-oriented error estimation due to time and mesh adaptivity remains an open issue. }}, author = {{Tchomgue Simeu, Arnold and Caylak, Ismail and Ostwald, Richard}}, issn = {{0264-4401}}, journal = {{Engineering Computations}}, pages = {{1--40}}, publisher = {{Emerald}}, title = {{{Error representations for goal-oriented a posteriori error estimation in elasto-plasticity with applications to mesh adaptivity}}}, doi = {{10.1108/ec-12-2023-0975}}, year = {{2026}}, } @article{63800, abstract = {{In this contribution, we address the estimation of the frequency-dependent elastic parameters of polymers in the ultrasound range, which is formulated as an inverse problem.

However, the results are conflicting. We investigated serum leptin levels in children and adolescents (11 to 18.9 years) with psychiatric disorders ( n  = 363). Absolute and relative (body-mass-index (BMI)-, sex- and pubertal-stage-adjusted z-scores using reference values of healthy children and adolescents) leptin levels of different patient groups according to diagnosis were compared. The association between leptin levels and depression (Beck Depression Inventory-II) and anxiety (Child Behavior Checklist and Youth Self Report) was examined using regression analysis. Leptin z-scores were higher in patients with psychiatric disorders than in healthy controls (median 1.50, p  < .001). While global tests suggested differences in leptin z-scores between patients with different psychiatric disorders, these differences could not be attributed to diagnosis groups in post-hoc pairwise comparisons. Absolute leptin levels differed between psychiatric disorders ( p  < .001). Patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) had the lowest levels, and patients with mood disorders had higher leptin levels than patients with mental disorders other than mood disorders, anxiety or AN. Neither absolute nor relative leptin levels were related to depressive or anxiety symptoms in regression models adjusted for sex and BMI. Significantly elevated BMI-, sex- and puberty-stage-adjusted leptin levels were observed in children and adolescents with psychiatric disorders compared to a reference sample. Further controlled studies are needed to confirm and explain this finding.

SORCERI introduces a novel streaming Rys computing unit to calculate roots and weights of Rys polynomials on-chip, and a streaming contraction unit for the contraction of primitive ERIs. This shifts the design bottleneck from limited CPU-FPGA communication bandwidth to available FPGA computation resources. To address practical deployment challenges for a large number of quartet classes, we design three streaming overlays, together with an efficient memory transpose optimization, to cover the 21 most commonly used quartet classes in realistic atomistic simulations. To address the new computation constraints, we use flexible calculation stages with a free-running streaming architecture to achieve high DSP utilization and good timing closure.Experiments demonstrate that SORCERI achieves an average 5.96x, 1.99x, and 1.16x better performance per watt than libint on a 64-core AMD EPYC 7713 CPU, libintx on an Nvidia A40 GPU, and SERI, the prior best-performing FPGA design for primitive ERIs.

Using data from a real estate corporation, we simulate the effects of a wealth tax on cash flows from the rental operations. The level of detail of the data enables us to conduct analyses at the annual, regional and year of construction level. A comparison with real estate data from other sources supports external validity. The results of the simulation show that the introduction of a wealth tax can significantly reduce the cash flow from rental operations and lead to liquidity problems. On average over all observations, a wealth tax rate of 2% leads to a negative cash flow after all costs. In general, this finding implies that growth-oriented real estate is more affected by a wealth tax in terms of liquidity than rental yield-oriented real estate. Particularly in large cities with high market values but relatively low rents, the liquidity effects can be more than three times as high as in rural or industrial regions – potentially leading to a relative loss of investment attractiveness. As a wealth tax is decoupled from rental income, the tax burden is very sensitive to market developments, including the interest rate environment. As a result, investments in residential rental real estate are exposed to additional uncertainty. This additional tax uncertainty might impair the willingness to invest and should therefore be taken into account in political discussions on the reintroduction of a wealth tax.}}, author = {{Maiterth, Ralf and Piper, Yuri and Sureth-Sloane, Caren}}, title = {{{Liquidity Effects of a Wealth Tax on Residential Rental Real Estate}}}, doi = {{10.2139/ssrn.6147767}}, year = {{2026}}, } @article{64187, abstract = {{Carbon fiber-reinforced plastics (CFRPs) have become increasingly significant in recent decades due to their remarkable mechanical properties and lightweight nature.

This study addresses the formation of “viscous fingering” instabilities in structural adhesive joints, which are induced by thermally driven relative displacements during the liquid phase of the adhesive. Using a component-like specimen “bridge specimen,” the dependency of this phenomenon on process temperature and structural stiffness (rivet distance) was characterized. Experimental results reveal that while the relative displacement scales cubically with the free buckling length, the resulting adhesive area reduction follows an exponential trend, leading to a loss of effective bond area of up to 79%, which significantly compromises the joint strength in automotive applications. To predict these process-induced defects, a thermo-chemo-viscoelastic-viscoplastic adhesive model implemented in LS-DYNA was applied. The model combines curing kinetics, viscoelastic relaxation, and pressure-dependent plasticity and features a geometric damage parameter (D) that captures the adhesive area reduction caused by viscous fingering as an exponential function of the accumulated normal strain in the liquid phase. This damage parameter, calibrated on base-specimen level, was transferred to the component geometry.
