Research on Forest Carbon Sequestration Based on FSC Model and DeepAR Algorithm by Yin-di Xu

“…This paper clarifies that forest carbon sequestration is mainly influenced by three aspects: human, climate, and nonclimatic physical factors, constructs a model for estimating the carbon sequestration rate of forest ecosystems based on forest age and the logistic growth equation, and combines human behaviour and climate influencing factors to make comprehensive corrections to the carbon sequestration rate of forest ecosystems per unit area. A model for calculating the carbon sequestration rate over time in a forest system was developed, which combined with the DeepAR Algorithm to obtain carbon sequestration. …”

Numerical Study of High Spectral Efficiency and High-Temperature Energy Harvesting Metamaterial Emitter to Improve Thermophotovoltaic Performance by Sifan Tamiru, Fekadu Tolessa, Birke Alemu, Solomon Tiruneh, Abebe Belay, Gurmu Alemu, T. Gurumurthi

“…COMSOL Multiphysics software was used to study the emitter, which was made of tungsten and aluminum nitride. The width of the unit cell and the tungsten ground thickness were fixed while other geometric parameters, such as the base length of the pyramid, the height of the pyramid, and the thickness of the dielectric, were tuned to produce the emitter’s desired broadband emission. …”

A Novel Dual-Band Left-Handed Metamaterial Design Method by Si Li, Wenhua Yu, Atef Z. Elsherbeni, Wenxing Li, Yunlong Mao

“…Unlike other methods, where the designers focused their attentions on designing single LHM unit with multiple electric/magnetic resonances or combining multiple different LHM units together, the proposed method in this paper introduces an additional magnetic resonance to extract negative permeability, taking advantage of the areas between neighboring units. …”

Complex Atanassov's Intuitionistic Fuzzy Relation by Abd Ulazeez M. Alkouri, Abdul Razak Salleh

“…This relation is formally generalised from a conventional Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy relation, based on complex Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy sets, in which the ranges of values of CAIFR are extended to the unit circle in complex plane for both membership and nonmembership functions instead of [0, 1] as in the conventional Atanassov's intuitionistic fuzzy functions. …”
