Risk measures give investors an idea of the volatility of a fund relative to its benchmark index. Discover more about risk ...

The Treynor ratio, also known as the reward-to-volatility ratio, is a performance metric for determining how much excess ...

Abstract: We developed an orthogonal Brillouin imaging system that allows simultaneous measurement of the refractive index, longitudinal modulus, and shear modulus. To achieve this, we designed and ...

The mechanical properties of electrochemically deposited Li whiskers critically determine the failure mechanisms of Li metal batteries, yet they remain elusive at the single-whisker level. Here, the ...

Running is a spring-loaded sport—and no, I’m not just referring to the springy, carbon-plated super shoes that have swept the running world in recent years. Muscles and tendons themselves act like ...

Solutions offered to decrease the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have not put us on a clear path to achieving climate mitigation goals. Greenhouse gas emissions are the result of ...

Numerous cell functions are accompanied by phenotypic changes in viscoelastic properties, and measuring them can help elucidate higher level cellular functions in health and disease. We present a high ...

In this article, a magnetorheological shear thickening fluid (MRSTF) was fabricated based on magnetorheological (MR) material and shear thickening fluid (STF). The STF was firstly fabricated as the ...
