@inproceedings{65363, abstract = {{Recent theoretical advancement of information density in natural language has brought the following question on desk: To what degree does natural language exhibit periodicity pattern in its encoded information? We address this question by introducing a new method called AutoPeriod of Surprisal (APS). APS adopts a canonical periodicity detection algorithm and is able to identify any significant periods that exist in the surprisal sequence of a single document. By applying the algorithm to a set of corpora, we have obtained the following interesting results: Firstly, a considerable proportion of human language demonstrates a strong pattern of periodicity in information; Secondly, new periods that are outside the distributions of typical structural units in text (e.g., sentence boundaries, elementary discourse units, etc.) are found and further confirmed via harmonic regression modeling. We conclude that the periodicity of information in language is a joint outcome from both structured factors and other driving factors that take effect at longer distances. The advantages of our periodicity detection method and its potentials in LLM-generation detection are further discussed.}}, author = {{Ou, Yulin and Wang, Yu and Xu, Yang and Buschmeier, Hendrik}}, location = {{San Diego, CA, USA}}, title = {{{Identifying the periodicity of information in natural language}}}, year = {{2026}}, } @inbook{57745, author = {{Büttner, Denise and Füllekruss, David}}, booktitle = {{Demokratiebildung in Theorie und Praxis: Synergien zwischen Schulforschung und Deutschdidaktik}}, editor = {{Kocyba, Kristina and Kofer, Martina}}, title = {{{Deutsch als Garant für demokratische Teilhabe?

Understanding the properties of these layers in relation to device performance is essential for optimizing solar cell efficiency and enabling their integration into emerging architectures, such as flexible solar cells. Here, we deposited TiO2 at different thicknesses using atomic layer deposition (ALD), a technique well-suited for producing uniform and pinhole-free films. The crystal structure of the layers was controlled by depositing the films at three different temperatures: 150 °C, 250 °C, and 350 °C. The layers were characterized in detail to determine the morphology (by atomic force microscopy), surface composition (by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) and the crystal structure (by X-ray diffraction). The TiO2 layers were then incorporated as ETLs in planar perovskite solar cells to evaluate their influence on device performance. Higher deposition temperatures led to improvements in device fill factor and open-circuit voltage, leading to more efficient solar cells. Notably, the best device performance for the ALD-TiO2 layers was achieved with films deposited at 250 °C.}}, author = {{Qudsia, Syeda and Weiss, Alexander and Sirkiä, Saara and Wang, Fuzeng and Rosqvist, Emil and Los Arcos, Teresa De and Weinberger, Christian and Halme, Janne and Kemell, Marianna and Smått, Jan-Henrik}}, issn = {{0169-4332}}, journal = {{Applied Surface Science}}, keywords = {{Titanium dioxide, Atomic layer deposition, Electron transport layer, Perovskite solar cells}}, pages = {{166755}}, title = {{{Influence of deposition temperature and thickness of ALD-TiO2 on planar perovskite solar cell performance}}}, doi = {{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apsusc.2026.166755}}, year = {{2026}}, } @article{65373, abstract = {{To reduce CO₂ emissions, the automotive industry is adopting multi-material structures. Fusion-based joining reaches its limits for aluminium–steel due to brittle intermetallic phases and mismatched thermophysical properties; therefore, mechanical joining (e.g., SPR) is used. Though conventional SPR requires tool changes for different stack-ups. Versatile self-piercing riveting (V-SPR) addresses this with an extended punch actuator and a multi-range-capable rivet (Kappe in PERD16:363–378, 2022), enabling joints up to 600 MPa across varying thicknesses without retooling. With the use of ultra-high-strength steels up to 1000 MPa, optimisation is required. This study quantifies how rivet shank geometry affects joint formation using a design of experiments and validated 2D axisymmetric FE simulations. The optimum depends strongly on the material system. For CP1000–EN AW-6014, maximum interlock f is predicted for a medium shank thickness of about 0.73 mm, a small internal foot radius of 0.620 mm, and a deeper drill depth of 3.136 mm, yielding f fc =0.4503 mm with a desirability of 0.954. For EN AW-6014–EN AW-6014, the optimum shifts to a thinner shank of 0.670 mm, a larger internal foot radius of 0.820 mm and a shallow drill depth of 2.30 mm, giving ffc = 0.3023 mm with a desirability of 1.0. A compromise geometry of 0.713 mm shank thickness, 0.776 mm internal foot radius and 2.755 mm drill depth achieves ffc = 0.3641 mm for CP1000–aluminium and ffc = 0.1851 mm for aluminium–aluminium with an overall desirability D = 0.6378, expanding V-SPR to ultra-high-strength steel–aluminium joints while maintaining aluminium joinability.}}, author = {{Kaimann, Pia Katharina and Ritter, Nico and Bobbert, Mathias and Meschut, Gerson}}, issn = {{2731-6564}}, journal = {{Discover Mechanical Engineering}}, number = {{1}}, publisher = {{Springer Science and Business Media LLC}}, title = {{{Influence of the shank geometry on the joint formation of the versatile self-piercing riveting of ultra-high-strength steel-aluminium and aluminium-aluminium assemblies}}}, doi = {{10.1007/s44245-026-00221-y}}, volume = {{5}}, year = {{2026}}, } @book{61869, abstract = {{There are few things left on earth that people have not attempted to measure. From temperature to time, from finances to football, numbers are a crucial mediator of how we perceive and understand the world we live in. Increasingly, however, it is humans themselves who are the subject of quantification. Our fitness and success, even our personality traits and attractiveness, are now the stuff of scales and scores. But what does it do to us to be on the receiving end of such measurement? One of the world’s most successful global metrics is the school grade. Long predating the digital age, educational marks can be traced back at least to sixteenth-century European schools and have since conquered the world, becoming the indicator of academic achievement. To understand what it means to be quantified, Noëlle Rohde undertook in-depth fieldwork in a German comprehensive school where students receive more than one hundred grades per year. By staying close to the pupils as they are continually examined and assessed, her ethnography illustrates how marks mould students’ self-images, how they enforce meritocratic thinking and serve as a potent disciplinary tool. Marked: School Grades and the Quantified Life not only offers a nuanced account of the effects of grades on students, but also tells a cautionary tale of the increasing quantification of human life. }}, author = {{Rohde, Noëlle}}, publisher = {{London School of Economics (LSE) Press}}, title = {{{Marked.

Understanding tax complexity in this context is crucial as developing nations frequently encounter legislative, fiscal, and administrative challenges that exacerbate their tax complexity. Complexity can hinder investment, impair tax revenue collection, and impede economic development. The authors adapt a global survey instrument to the Indonesian context and collect responses from Indonesian tax officers and firms. Transfer pricing is perceived as the most complex tax regulation which is consistent with cross-country studies. However, in contrast to the global findings, statutory tax rates and taxes on dividends rank second and third in Indonesia. While Indonesian tax officers emphasize the complexity of transfer pricing regulations, firms are more concerned about the complexity of tax procedures, especially tax guidance and tax audits. Furthermore, comparative analyses show that tax officers perceive tax regulations as being more complex than tax procedures. In contrast, firms perceive the opposite, particularly for tax audits. The findings offer a nuanced picture of tax complexity in a developing country and provide guidance for tax reforms in Indonesia.
