How about this?
Revolutionary guitar string rocks the guitar world

Interesting. The actual science article is here...
The physics of unwound and wound strings on the electric guitar applied to the pitch intervals produced by tremolo/vibrato arm systems
.....
Is this a breakthrough? I don't think so. The paper points out that there are already tension balanced string sets out there, and aftermarket tremolo units for standard string set gauges that keeps the strings in tune. But nobody really cares all that much. Will that ever change? I don't know, but I doubt it.
But thanks for posting!
IIRC many years ago Drew @ EBMM came up with a way to calculate the optimum gauges for JP's alternate tunings so that each guitar (regardless of tuning) would have the same tension as his standard tuning guitars.
