Generation of predictive price and trading volume patterns in a model of dynamically evolving free market supply and demand by J. K. Wang

“…The consideration of dynamically evolving supply and demand in this model resolves the apparent contradiction with the Efficient Market Hypothesis: perceptions of imprecise equity values by a world of investors evolve over non-negligible periods of time, with dependence on price history.…”

Moderating Role of Tenure in an Organization and Work Engagement on Organization Citizenship Behaviour and Task Performance by Preeti S. Honnamane, K. Sreekanth, G. P. Girish

“…Utilizing Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling, the analysis reveals that while extended tenure fosters deeper role comprehension and stronger interpersonal bonds its impact on task performance is minimal and its effect on organization citizenship behaviour is negligible. The study underscores the importance of supportive work environment and calls for future research on industry-specific factors that could further shape the dynamics of tenure and engagement. …”

Mathematical modelling of flow and adsorption in a gas chromatograph by A. Cabrera-Codony, A. Valverde, K. Born, O.A.I. Noreldin, T.G. Myers

“…Dimensional analysis is employed to identify negligible terms and so reduce the problem to the solution of a single integral equation. …”

Empirical Evidence for Various Evolutionary Hypotheses on Species Demonstrating Increasing Mortality with Increasing Chronological Age in the Wild by Giacinto Libertini

“…In particular, (1) the existence of many species with a constant, or almost constant, mortality rate, especially the so-called “animals with negligible senescence”; (2) the inverse correlation, observed in mammals and birds in the wild, between extrinsic mortality and the proportion of deaths due to intrinsic mortality; (3) the existence of highly sophisticated, genetically determined, and regulated mechanisms that limit and modulate cell duplication capacities and overall cell functionality. …”

Five-Phase Modular External Rotor PM Machines with Different Rotor Poles: A Comparative Simulation Study by A. S. Abdel-Khalik

“…The performance of fault-tolerant modular permanent magnet machines depends on the proper selection of the pole and slot numbers which result in negligible coupling between phases. The preferred slot and pole number combinations eliminate the effect of low-order harmonics in the stator magnetomotive force and thereby the vibration and stray loss are reduced. …”

Quasilinear Hyperbolic Systems Applied to Describe the Magnetohydrodynamic Nanofluid Flow by Dayong Nie

“…The results suggest that Brownian motion has a negligible impact on the heat transfer rate. The ratio of the elastic force to the viscosity force was found to decrease the fluid velocity. …”

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GOVERNMENT SPENDING AND NIGERIA'S ECONOMIC GROWTH: VECTOR AUTO-REGRESSION APPROACH by Benedict Azu, Agbobu Shedrack Onyeka

“…It also turned out that the effect of public debt on economic growth is negligible. Consequently, the study suggests that: Government should minimise the incidence of borrowing, particularly since 92% of revenue is currently being used to service debt for mostly non-productive borrowings; Government spending in health and education should be increased significantly to at least match regional and global expenditure benchmarks. …”

Dark Matter and Dark Energy Induced by Condensates by Antonio Capolupo

“…It is shown that the thermal states with the cosmic microwave radiation temperature and the Unruh and the Hawking radiations give negligible contributions to the critical energy density of the universe, while the thermal vacuum of the intercluster medium could contribute to the dark matter, together with the vacuum energy of fields in curved space-time and of mixed neutrinos. …”

Un regard hétérodoxe sur le Nouveau Monde : la géographie d’Élisée Reclus et l’extermination des Amérindiens (1861-1905) by Federico Ferretti

“…As this work had a wide public diffusion, and its author was famous as a founder of the anarchist movement and an exile of the Paris Commune, its influence on the European progressive public opinion was not negligible at that time. In this paper, we examine the Reclus’ representation of the genocide of Amerindian peoples committed by conquerors and their followers between the 16th and the 19th century. …”

Applicability of Pseudoprobabilistic Method of Liquefaction Hazard Assessment for Nuclear Power Plants at Diffuse Seismicity Sites by Tamás János Katona, Erzsébet Győri, László Tóth

“…An important question is how to define a quantitative criterion for negligibility of the liquefaction hazard. In the case of operating plants, liquefaction can be revealed as a beyond-design-basis event. …”

Modified Minkowski Fractal Unit Cell for Reflectarrays with Low Sensitivity to Mutual Coupling Effects by Sandra Costanzo, Francesca Venneri, Giuseppe Di Massa

“…In order to prove the independence of the proposed cell to mutual coupling effect, the phase curve variations due to the presence of different surrounding elements with respect to the case of identical cells are evaluated using the well-known extended local periodicity method. Small and negligible mutual coupling errors are retrieved for the proposed miniaturized unit cell, thus demonstrating lower sensitivity to mutual coupling adverse effects.…”

Biochar reduces early-stage mineralization rates of plant residues more in coarse-textured soils than in fine-textured soils – an artificial-soil approach by T. M. Inagaki, S. Weldon, F. B. Bucka, F. B. Bucka, E. Farkas, D. P. Rasse

“…Clay and silt particles alone also reduce C mineralization, but the magnitude of the changes is negligible compared to the impact of biochar. This finding suggests that biochar can compensate for the lack of clay in promoting C persistence in soil systems. …”
