This study explores the characteristics and distribution of the feedback provided by the participants (a teacher and her students) in an activity organized inside a collaborative online learning environment. We analyse 8...

Abstract The increasing penetration of photovoltaic distributed generation (PV-DG) in Radial Distribution Systems (RDSs) plays a vital role in achieving sustainable energy transition objectives; however, the inherent unc...

This study focuses on the explainability of AI operations for diagnosing degradations in cloud applications. Log data can provide essential contextual information on misbehaving applications in monitoring, evaluated agai...

Abstract In this study, a new three-parameter Lomax distribution is proposed using the beta transformation technique. The new distribution is named Beta Transformed Lomax distribution. Some mathematical properties of the...

Abstract Likelihood-based inference for exponential-tail lifetime models can be unstable in finite samples, particularly under right-tail contamination. We develop a robust score-based inference procedure for the two-par...

According to the fractal theory, the fractal distribution formula of gradation for rockfill materials is deduced. The field gradation data of six dams with clay core and five 200 m-high CFRDs are used to verify the relev...

The impact damage tolerance of fiber-reinforced laminated composite materials is a source of concern, mainly due to internal induced damage which causes large reductions on the strength and stability of the structure. Th...

Based on the ellipsoid theory of particle flows, that is, an ellipse sliding face is presented in the loosening zone at upper part of tunnels, a method is deduced to calculate the lateral earth pressure coefficient relat...

This study examines the distribution of economic benefits in the interests of the neopatrimonial bureaucracy amid the Russo-Ukrainian war. It argues that the neopatrimonial theory provides a more accurate explanation of ...

The theory of redistribution, which argues that individuals from higher-income groups are the primary holders of public debt, serves as the theoretical foundation for our research. The impact of redistribution based on t...

Objectives: The development of measures such as the EQ-HWB (EQ Health and Wellbeing) requires selection of items. This study explored the psychometric performance of candidate items, testing their validity in patients, s...

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) truss arch bridges are widely used in long-span bridge construction due to their high strength, good stiffness, and excellent durability. However, arch rib joints, as critical load-be...

Finite mixture models are helpful for uncovering heterogeneity due to hidden structure; for example, unknown major genes. The first part of this article gives examples and reviews quantitative genetics issues of continuo...

This study utilized Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) to identify attachment style latent profiles among parents of school-aged children and examine their association with parenting behaviors. Analysis of attachment anxiety ...

One of the reasons why investors were not prepared for heavy losses in the stock markets that occurred after the beginning of sub prime mortgage crisis in the US lies in the curious fact that many practitioners were led ...

Although parity-time (PT)-symmetric systems can exhibit real spectra in the exact PT-symmetry regime, PT-symmetry is actually not a necessary condition for the real spectra. Here, we show that non-PT-symmetric photonic c...

Based on the calculations from the first principles, we obtained the distributions of valence electron densities and electron energy spectra for a CdS film with different oxygen concentrations. According to the results o...

The purpose of this article is to explain what factors, from the viewpoint of the Visegrad Group countries, were important determinants in outward FDI. Referring to the eclectic theory of Dunning and the theory of econom...

We study the structural properties of networks formed by random sets of bit strings—namely the ordered arrays of binary variables representing, for instance, genetic information or cultural profiles. Two bit strings ar...

This paper proposes a dual-spectrum communication strategy for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) scenarios that integrates visible light communication (VLC) and ultraviolet communication (UVC). In the proposed approac...

Abstract The current research of reliability allocation of CNC lathes always treat CNC lathes as independent series systems. However, CNC lathes are complex systems in the actual situation. Failure correlation is rarely ...

Accumulated pollen sequences are used to infer temporal changes in vegetation composition. Pollen transport and dispersal by winds introduce large biases in the interpretation of pollen records. In order to calibrate the...

ABSTRACT The River Continuum Concept (RCC) proposes links between functional groups within assemblages with habitat and ecological characteristics of different river sizes. This theory is supported by extensive evidence ...

The large-diameter monopiles of offshore wind turbines are always subjected to multiaxial loads. The design criteria for the vertical and lateral bearing behaviors of piles are designed independently, while lots of tests...
