Field Measurement and Energy Analysis of Ground-Borne Vibration around High-Speed Railway Viaduct by Yanmei Cao, Qi Xiang, Boyang Li, Zhaoyang Li

“…In order to investigate the vibration characteristics and propagation mechanism of ground vibrations induced by high-speed train passing through the viaduct, a field experiment is carried out, and the measured data is deeply analyzed. Besides the independent time domain and frequency domain analysis, the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) is performed on the vibration signal to analyze the energy distribution characteristics of ground vibrations from the view of time-frequency synchronous analysis. …”

Service function chain embedding algorithm with wireless multicast in mobile edge computing network by Kan WANG, Nan ZHAO, Junhuai LI, Huaijun WANG

“…To resolve the excessive system overhead and serious traffic congestion in user-oriented service function chain (SFC) embedding in mobile edge computing (MEC) networks,a content-oriented joint wireless multicast and SFC embedding algorithm was proposed for the multi-base station and multi-user edge networks with MEC servers.By involving four kinds of system overhead,including service flow,server function sustaining power,server function service power and wireless transmission power,an optimization model was proposed to jointly design SFC embedding with multicast beamforming.Firstly,with Lagrangian dual decomposition,the problem was decoupled into two independent subproblems,namely,SFC embedding and multicast beamforming.Secondly,with the L<sub>p</sub> norm penalty term-based successive convex approximation algorithm,the integer programming-based SFC embedding problem was relaxed to an equivalent linear programming one.Finally,the non-convex beamforming optimization problem was transformed into a series of convex ones via the path following technique.Simulation results revealed that the proposed algorithm has good convergence,and is superior to both the optimal SFC embedding with unicasting and random SFC embedding with multicasting in terms of system overhead.…”

The Effects of Cognitive Flexibility on Teacher’s Readiness To Implement the Merdeka Curriculum by Idawati Idawati, Abdul Hayyi Akrom, M. Hasanil Asy’ari

“…The research results show that teachers' cognitive flexibility abilities have a significant effect on teachers' readiness to implement the "Independent Curriculum" in schools. This can be seen from the significance score of 0.000, which is less than 0.05, so it can be concluded that teachers with high cognitive flexibility are better prepared to implement the Merdeka Curriculum in schools than teachers with low cognitive flexibility.…”

Homocysteine and Hypertension in Diabetes: Does PPARγ Have a Regulatory Role? by Utpal Sen, Suresh C. Tyagi

“…Homocysteine, which is a nonprotein amino acid, at elevated levels is an independent cardio-renovascular risk factor. Homocysteine induces oxidative injury of vascular endothelial cells, involved in matrix remodeling through modulation of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)/tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP) axis, and increased formation and accumulation of extracellular matrix protein, such as collagen. …”
