The Predictions of Noncollinear Equilibria Positions in ER3BP with Yukawa-Like Corrections by E. Baby Anitha, Tenaw Tilahun Asmamaw, M. Javed Idrisi

“…The noncollinear equilibria was found linearly stable for a critical mass parameter μc. A critical point λ = ½ is also obtained for the critical mass parameter μc, and at this point, the critical mass parameter μc has maximum or minimum values according to α < 0 or α > 0, respectively.…”

Curing Black Hole Singularities with Local Scale Invariance by Predrag Dominis Prester

“…The main conclusions of our analysis are as follows: (1) singularities signal a phase transition from broken to unbroken phase of Weyl symmetry; (2) instead of a singularity, there is a “baby universe” or a white hole inside a black hole; (3) in the baby universe scenario, there is a critical mass after which reducing mass makes the black hole larger as viewed by outside observers; (4) if a black hole could be connected with white hole through the “singularity,” this would require breakdown of (classical) geometric description; (5) the singularity of Schwarzschild BH solution is nongeneric and so it is dangerous to rely on it in deriving general results. …”

Aerodynamic Optimization Design of a Multistage Centrifugal Steam Turbine and Its Off-Design Performance Analysis by Hui Li, Dian-Gui Huang

“…The off-design aerodynamic performance of centrifugal steam turbine was analyzed, and the results show that the mass flow increases with the decrease of the pressure ratio at a constant speed, until the critical mass flow is reached. The efficiency curve with the pressure ratio has an optimum efficiency point. …”

Reforming the innovation system to deliver affordable medicines: a conceptual framework of pharmaceutical innovation as a complex adaptive system (forest) and theory of change by Suerie Moon, Adrian Alonso Ruiz, Marcela C. F. Vieira, Kaitlin E. Large, Iulia Slovenski

“…We constructed a database of 140 pharmaceutical innovation initiatives that sought to address global public interest objectives such as fair pricing or missing innovation. We found a critical mass of initiatives clustered around four areas: pandemic preparedness, neglected diseases, rare diseases and antibiotics, which we conceptualised as niches within the ecosystem. …”
