Maltreatment-Associated Psychiatric Problems: An Example of Environmentally Triggered ESSENCE? by Helen Minnis

“…Individual disorders associated with maltreatment are discussed as well as the overlap between these disorders and their shared environmental and genetic predisposing factors. Because of the complex and overlapping nature of MAPP, with symptoms emerging in early life, I argue that it should be considered an example of ESSENCE. …”

DYNAMIC ANALYSIS AND OPTIMIZATION OF IMPACT MECHANISM FOR IMPACTING AND BREAKING ROCK ROADEADER by LI XiaoHuo, QIAN YaSen, JIAO Li, LI Yan, SHI ShangWei, WENG ZhengYang

“…In order to improve the impact mechanism of the impacting and breaking rock roadheader dynamic characteristics under the cycle impact load,the first six natural frequency and mode shape as well as the displacement-frequency curves were obtained by using stress wave synthesis theory and finite element method in the paper,the modal and harmonic response of the mechanism were analyzed,the main deformation portion and main vibration direction and three axial weakest points of the mechanism were confirmed,structure size optimization of the rocker arm were adopted with multiple objective genetic algorithm,The maximum displacement response of the mechanism was reduced,and the dynamic characteristics of the mechanism were improved,which provides a method and basis for researching and improving the dynamic performance of the mechanism.…”

Optimal coalition structure generation strategy in multi-task concurrent edge computing environment by Shuxu ZHAO, Ping WEI, Xiaolong WANG

“…A discrete recent past-position updating strategy based m-ary discrete particle swarm optimization (MDPSO-DRPPUS) algorithm was proposed for the problem of large search space and low efficiency when solving the optimal coalition structure.First, the coalition structure with index-based was coded.Then, the multi-objective optimization problem was transformed into an eigenvalue function of the coalition structure.Finally, the optimal coalition structure was searched by using the MDPSO-DRPPUS algorithm.Experiments show that compared with the m-ary discrete particle swarm optimization (MDPSO) algorithm and genetic algorithm (GA), the proposed algorithm dramatically reduces the average running time, and improves the efficiency and equilibrium of the coalition structure and task completion efficiency of edge nodes.…”
