The Lower Paleozoic reservoir in the Micangshan tectonic zone is a new shale gas exploration area with excellent potential. However, the hydrocarbon migration and accumulation histories of this reservoir have not been thoroughly elucidated and urgently require further research. Fluid inclusions...

This paper presents an optimal technique for parameter estimation of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) model. The idea is to minimize the Sum of Squared Error (SSE) between the output voltage and the experimental data. To achieve this purpose, a new metaheuristic, called the Converged Grass Fibrous...

This study explores the effect of managerial overconfidence on the risk of a stock price crash. Results indicate that managerial overconfidence positively affects stock price crash risk. Importantly, internal controls can reduce this risk by curbing managerial overconfidence.

This paper generalizes a market-based indicator for financial sector surveillance using a multifactor latent structure in the determination of the default probabilities of an nth-todefault credit default swap (CDS) basket of large complex financial institutions (LCFIs). To estimate the...
