Spatial factors as contextual qualifiers of information seeking by R. Savolainen

“…The realistic-pragmatic approach emphasizes the ways in which the availabilty of information sources in different places such as daily work environments orient information seeking. The perspectivist approach focuses on how people subjectively assess the significance of various sources by means of spatial constructs such as information horizons. …”

Formation and Evolution of Cellular Structures in Wedge-Induced Oblique Detonations by Chengxuan Yu, Zhenye Luan, Hua Jin, Yue Huang, Yancheng You

“…The compressible reactive Euler equations are solved using the seventh-order WENO scheme on an adaptive mesh based on the open source program Adaptive Mesh Refinement in Object-oriented C++ (AMROC). The numerical results show that there are two sets of transverse waves, the left-running transverse waves (LRTW) and the right-running transverse waves (RRTW), which form the oblique cellular detonation structure. …”

Rethinking Old Age and Masculinity: Impact on the Re-Spatialization of Life and Research during the COVID-19 Period in Spain by Agustina Varela-Manograsso, Marcos Bote

“…We managed to conduct interviews and focus groups with men over 60 years old from different social backgrounds and sexual orientation to study their thoughts and beliefs about masculinity and ageing by taking into account how the re-spatialization of the participant’s lives and of the research during the pandemic transformed both the (self-)perception of masculinity and of ageing, as well as the process and results of our investigation. …”

Socialism equals death, market equals life: anti-socialist and pro-market policy discourse among the contemporary Venezuelan Opposition. by Barry Cannon

“…Situating this analysis within a wider discussion on the relationship between democracy and neoliberalism, and using a framework derived from Wendy Brown’s book “In the Ruins of Neoliberalism”, the article argues that the Venezuelan Opposition is fundamentally neoliberal in ideological orientation. This means that it seeks to, paraphrasing Brown, critique and dismantle society, using anti-socialism as its principle trope to do so; attack “democracy understood as popular sovereignty and shared political power”, even while it uses democracy as its main discursive banner; and extend the personal protected sphere at the expense of the public. …”

Digital twin based intelligent urban traffic forecasting and guidance strategy by Xiwen LIAO, Supeng LENG, Yujun MING, Tianyang LI

“…As the technology of ubiquitous Internet of things and artificial intelligence improves by leaps and bounds, the transportation system revolution is flourishing and bringing new opportunities and challenges.Considering the defect in the existing navigation system, and the neglect of the temporal and spatial characteristics of traffic flow, the macro traffic network and micro vehicle network were modeled and their coupling relationship was mined.Then, a digital twin based urban traffic forecasting and guidance method was proposed to alleviate the problem of traffic congestion.The spatial-temporal traffic flow information was predicted through the diffusion convolution recurrent neural network, which was explicitly applied to the vehicle path planning decision.On this basis, a spatial-temporal collaborative deep reinforcement learning method was proposed to implement the future-oriented collaborative path planning of vehicles.It also guided the underlying vehicle twins to select the optimal strategy for the real world.With SUMO for simulation verification, the experimental results show that the proposed method is significantly better than the existing algorithms in improving the travel completion ratio and congestion relief, and can improve the efficiency of urban traffic travel.…”

Communication framework for directed transmission of informative semantic by Guangming SHI, Minxi YANG, Dahua GAO, Jingxuan CHAI

“…As the traditional communication development model focusing on enhancing bandwidth and spectrum efficiency is getting bottlenecked, more and more research is shifting the goal of intelligent communication from the syntactic level to the semantic level to save bandwidth resources by sensing and transmitting semantics rather than the complete signal.For the receiver agent, it is enough to receive only the information part of the understandable semantics.If the informative parts from the semantics can be filtered for transmission, it will further reduce the bandwidth resources and the time and power consumption of semantic information processing at the sender-side.To this end, firstly, the process of semantic information processing and comprehension of an intelligent body was explored.Secondly, the semantics perceived by the receiver from the message were classified into redundant semantics, unintelligible semantics, and informative semantic.Then, a communication paradigm oriented to transmitting the informative part of the semantics, called informative communication, was proposed, and the communication paradigm was extended to include four layers: syntax, semantic, informative, and pragmatic.Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of informative communication were verified through simulation.This provides new ideas and technical traction for the development of next-generation communication models.…”

The Existence and Structure of Rotational Systems in the Circle by Jayakumar Ramanathan

“…By a rotational system, we mean a closed subset X of the circle, T=R/Z, together with a continuous transformation f:X→X with the requirements that the dynamical system (X,f) be minimal and that f respect the standard orientation of T. We show that infinite rotational systems (X,f), with the property that map f has finite preimages, are extensions of irrational rotations of the circle. …”

Forest Ecosystem Carbon Measurement Methods and Future Directions by YUAN Yuna, JIANG Xuebing

“…The forest ecosystem is a crucial component of terrestrial ecosystems,possessing the largest carbon reservoir on the Earth's surface.The fluctuations in its carbon stocks have a profound impact on the global carbon cycle.In the current context of a growing greenhouse effect and the rising occurrence of extreme climates,accurately estimating carbon stocks in the forest ecosystem and strengthening the construction monitoring system for its carbon stocks holds great significance for gaining an in-depth understanding of the global carbon cycle and predicting global climate change.Oriented toward strengthening the carbon sink function of forest ecosystems and achieving the dual carbon target, this paper systematically explained the mechanism of carbon sequestration in forest ecosystems.It analyzed and compared several mainstream methods of forest carbon estimation, proposing feasible strategies for building a forest carbon stock monitoring system in China.The aim is to provide a theoretical reference for the stable improvement of China's forest ecosystem carbon stock monitoring capacity and to provide scientific support for achieving the carbon peak and carbon neutrality in a timely manner.…”
