The other side of the Elbe River: interventions in art, modernity, and coloniality in Poland by Michalska, DJ

“…<p>The artistic practices of Zofia Stryjeńska (1891-1976), Władysław Hasior, (1928-1999), Teresa Murak (1949-) and Roman Stańczak (1969-) all bear testimony – in their own distinct ways – to the ‘shock of the new’, the massive rupture brought by modernisation and capitalism in twentieth-century Poland. …”

Performance of a novel LED lamp arrangement to reduce SNR fluctuation for multi-user visible light communication systems by Wang, Zixiong, Yu, Changyuan, Zhong, Wende, Chen, Jian, Chen, Wei

“…After time domain zero-forcing (ZF) equalization, the BER performances and channel capacities of 100-Mbit/s and 200-Mbit/s bipolar on-off-keying (OOK) signal with most significant inter-symbol interference (ISI) are very close to that of the channel without any ISI caused by this LED lamp arrangement.…”

Behave The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst / by Sapolsky, Robert M., author 656050, Penguin Random House (Online service) 655978

“…Sapolsky's storytelling concept is delightful but it also has a powerful intrinsic logic: he starts by looking at the factors that bear on a person's reaction in the precise moment a behavior occurs, and then hops back in time from there, in stages, ultimately ending up at the deep history of our species and its evolutionary legacy. …”

A novel approach based on the elastoplastic fatigue damage and machine learning models for life prediction of aerospace alloy parts fabricated by additive manufacturing by Zhan, Zhixin, Li, Hua

“…In the aerospace engineering, many metal parts produced using Additive Manufacturing (AM) technique often bear cyclic loadings, so the fatigue failures of AM alloy parts become very common phenomena. …”

Artificial Intelligence and the US-China Balance of Power by Chang, Benjamin Angel

“…Finally, the third essay exploits supply chain datasets to assess each side’s ability to bring AI-enabled autonomous weapons to bear in future conventional conflicts. I find that control over the production of advanced AI chips by the United States and allies almost certainly means the United States would better exploit such weapons, if they emerged as decisive in modern warfare, within at least the next ten years. …”

Unravelling giant molecular clouds by Liang, F

“…<p>Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) provide the fuel for star formation and bear various feedbacks. Thus, they are key to our understanding of galaxy evolution and the baryon cycle. …”

Curiosity Opens Relationships of the World and with Others: Narratives from Doing Teaching and Learning Through Curiosity by Cavicchi, Elizabeth

“…What potentials does curiosity bear for education? Some characterizations portray curiosity as self-motivated search for answers, a drive conformable with conventional education’s imperative for correct answers. …”

A secret of high-rate mass transfer in anammox granular sludge : "lung-like breathing" by Xu, Dongdong, Kang, Da, Yu, Tao, Ding, Aqiang, Lin, Qiujian, Zhang, Meng, Hu, Qianyi, Zheng, Ping

“…The AnGS cultivated in a bioreactor with higher nitrogen removal rate (NRR) was found to have the higher ExCA and ExCF when determinated at the same BLR, and the “lung-like breathing” behavior of one type of AnGS was revealed to bear a significantly (p < 0.05) positive correlation with the specific anammox activity (SAA). …”

Structural behavior of tubular frame under elevated temperature by Tan, Peng Hoe.

“…In this study, a two-bay-two-floor steel tubular frame, separated as four individual compartments, was modeled to investigate the behaviour of tubular frame under transient elevated temperature. To bear a resemblance to real fire condition, transient elevated temperature analysis was run to provide a more realistic solution. …”

Applications of deep learning for physical layer of wireless communication systems by Xie, Yihang

“…The 1D-TRNet receiver outperforms traditional OFDM receivers and state-of-the-art generalized approximate message passing (GAMP) receivers in terms of bit-error rate (BER) performance. The third research work proposes a deep learning-based 5G receiver, named communication transformer network (Comm-Trans Net), which is designed to be robust for different sub-types of TDL channels. …”
