Kinematics of Active Deformation Across the Western Kunlun Mountain Range (Xinjiang, China) and Potential Seismic Hazards Within the Southern Tarim Basin by Guilbaud, Christelle, Simoes, Martine, Barrier, Laurie, Laborde, Amandine, Van der Woerd, Jérôme, Li, Haibing, Tapponnier, Paul, Coudroy, Thomas, Murray, Andrew

“…From their incision pattern and using age constraints retrieved on some of these terraces from field sampling, we quantify the slip rate on the underlying blind ramp to 0.5 to 2.5 mm/yr, with a most probable long-term value of 2 to 2.5 mm/yr. The evolution of the Yecheng–Pishan fold is proposed by combining all structural, morphological, and chronological observations. …”

Building occupant sensing : occupancy prediction and behavior recognition by Zhu, Qingchang

“…For simple motion-related activity recognition based on Inertial Measurement Unit, i.e. accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer, we propose a semi-supervised learning framework using Deep Long Short- Term Memory method. As the unlabeled data is pervasively available, the pro- posed method could enhance performance of the classification of simple motions. …”

Vapour deposition of metal halide perovskite semiconductors by Yuan, Q

“…These unencapsulated devices also demonstrate excellent long-term stability, such that minimal change in efficiency after more than 5000 hours in storage and 3700 hour under 85°C heat-testing in N₂ atmosphere is observed.…”

Spin-ice physics and phase transitions in cadmium cyanide by Coates, CS

“…Ice-rules-obeying states are characterised by an absence of long range order, leading to a manifold of degenerate ground states, extensive residual entropy and exotic excitations; in spin-ices, these excitations correspond to topological defects in the form of effective magnetic monopoles. …”

Probabilistic verification beyond context-freeness by Li, G

“…</p> <br> <p>While Markov Chains (MCs) have long been foundational tools in this field, their limitations in modelling complex, recursive systems have prompted the development of more expressive models, such as Recursive Markov Chains (RMCs) and Probabilistic Pushdown Automata (pPDAs). …”

How does gamification impact on medical students’ academic motivation towards otolaryngology, and what demographics influence this: a mixed methods study by Burr, C

“…However, educational academics argue that gamification impacts on academic motivation negatively and reduce engagement with learning in the long-term. Thus far, studies have shown that the impacts of gamification on academic motivation are person- and context-specific. …”

Government resilience in the digital age by Raieste, A, Rebane, A, Tapupere, M, McBride, K

“…</li></ul> <br> “States that adopt our recommendations will be rewarded with a resilient digital state that could run its core and critical digital services even if there was a temporary or more long-term loss of its physical territory due to a crisis,” said Dr Keegan McBride, Lecturer in AI, Government, and Policy, Oxford Internet Institute. …”

Association between self-reported napping and risk of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality: a meta-analysis of cohort studies by Wang, Meng, Xiang, Xin, Zhao, Zhengyan, Liu, Yu, Cao, Yang, Guo, Weiwei, Hou, Linlin, Jiang, Qiuhuan

“…It highlights that the long duration time of the nap can serve as a risk factor for evaluating both overall mortality and cardiovascular mortality.…”

Correlation between spectral permittivity characteristics and fatty acid methyl ester composition for lard detection in edible oils by Amat Sairin, Masyitah

“…The study on fatty acid composition shows edible oils that have higher long chain fatty acid composition have lower spectral permittivity; and spectral permittivity of edible oils increases with increasing degree of fatty acid unsaturation. …”

Nanoscale Origins of Thermal Transport Phenomena for Hybrid Layered Perovskites by Dahod, Nabeel S.

“…That so many material properties can be effectively predicted simply from the bulk properties of the component phases is surprising given both the long-range order of the artificial solids and the sub-nanometer length scale of the individual component layers, and underlines the potential for intelligent engineering of the thermal properties of 2D LHPs without deleterious influences on the sterling optoelectronic properties.…”

History dependence of the microstructure on time-dependent deformation during in-situ cooling of a nickel-based single-crystal superalloy by Panwisawas, Chinnapat, D’Souza, Neil, Collins, David M., Bhowmik, Ayan, Roebuck, Bryan

“…Between 1000 °C and 900 °C, stress relaxation prevails and gives rise to softening as evidenced by a decreased dislocation density and the presence of long segment stacking faults in γ phase. Lattice strains decrease in both the γ matrix and γ′ precipitate phases. …”
