GTM: the generative topographic mapping
… form of principal component analysis or factor analysis. It also provides a principled alternative to the self-organizing map --- a widely established neural network model for unsupervised learning --- resolving many of its associated theoretical problems. An important, potential …

Mechanical Characterization and Modeling of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Electrolytes with Honeycomb Support
… at the two scales are related via a scalar magnification factor. The equivalent stiffness and magnification factor are computed for a variety of meso-scale and macro-scale geometries and validated experimentally using four-point bending and tension experiments on representative samples. …

Bioaccumulation of persistent organic pollutants and trace metals in Scottish marine food webs and their relationship with trophic level and fatty acid signatures.
… available. Secondary poisoning is a result of biomagnification, which can be expressed as the trophic magnification factor (TMF; the average increase in concentration per trophic level). Fatty acid (FA) signatures and stable isotope (SI) ratios were used to develop an understanding of Scottish …

Multi-Scale Physics Based Modeling of Tire Rolling Resistance Considering Aging
Every moment of every day, at least hundreds of thousands of tires roll across a surface throughout the world. Tires are indisputably important in our daily life. The tire's primary component is rubber, which consumes energy when it rotates on a substrate due to the viscoelastic material's internal …
