Depicting Berlin’s Atmospheres: Phenomenographic Sketches by Maxime Le Calvé, Olivier Gaudin

“…Tackling some atmospheres characteristic of a city at a certain period of its history is not the same as trying to grasp the ways of living in it; therefore, our approach is neither sociological nor geographical per se. Elaborating on four specific cases and reflecting from our own perspectives, we will examine the hypothesis of a fragmentation of Berlin’s atmospheres, exploring the ambivalent meanings of such assessment. …”

MIMO With 1-b Pre/Postcoding Resolution: A Quantum Annealing Approach by Ioannis Krikidis

“…In this article, we study the problem of digital pre/postcoding design in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with 1-b resolution per complex dimension. The optimal solution that maximizes the received signal-to-noise ratio relies on an NP-hard combinatorial problem that requires exhaustive searching with exponential complexity. …”

A numerical study of non-linear crack tip parameters by F.V. Antunes, R. Branco, L. Correia, AL Ramalho

“…Accordingly, 3D-FE numerical models with and without contact were developed for a wide range of loading scenarios and the crack tip parameters usually linked to fatigue crack growth, namely range of cyclic plastic strain, crack tip opening displacement, size of reversed plastic zone and total plastic dissipation per cycle, were investigated. It was demonstrated that: i) LEFM concepts are applicable to the problem under study; ii) the crack closure phenomenon has a great influence on crack tip parameters decreasing their values; iii) the ?…”

Carrying Capacity Evaluation on Water Resources of Jilin Province Based on PCA-GA-XGboost Model by PANG Bowen, LI Zhijun

“…To improve the efficiency and accuracy of carrying capacity evaluation in water resources, this paper proposes an indicator evaluation model based on principal component analysis (PCA), genetic algorithm (GA), and eXtreme gradient boosting tree (XGBoost).Meanwhile, fourteen evaluation indicators are defined with water resources, socio-economics, and ecological environment employed as subsystems.PCA is adopted to reduce the dimensionality of the evaluation indicators.Additionally, based on XGBoost, this paper conducts an evaluation analysis on the carrying capacity of water resources from 2011 to 2021 and utilizes GA to optimize four parameters in XGBoost.The results show that after simplifying the evaluation indicators by PCA, the correlation coefficient of the PCA-GA-XGBoost model is better than GA-B, GA-SVM, GA-XGBoost, and XGBoost.The carrying capacity of water resources in Jilin Province from 2011 to 2021 is between 0.192 and 0.724, presenting a trend of first increasing, then decreasing, and finally increasing with improved carrying capacity situation.Meanwhile, the built-in function of eigenvalue importance ranking in the model is leveraged to conclude the fact that the indicator with the largest importance is identified as the applied fertilizer amount per hectare (0.530 7).…”
