Comparative Analysis of Entrepreneurial Competencies Development among University Students by A. V. Pesha, M. N. Shavrovskaya, T. A. Lapina

“…The data obtained were interpreted and processed using qualitative and quantitative analysis methods, including descriptive statistics, correlation analysis (Pearson correlation coefficient, R), one-factor analysis of variance, factor analysis and qualitative analysis of student histories. The conducted research makes it possible to assess the differences in the level of assessed competencies of students depending on the form of study, to determine the correlation of the presence of entrepreneurial intentions and assessments of students’ entrepreneurial competencies, as well as to analyze the attitude of students to the importance of the formation of entrepreneurial competencies at the university. …”

Machine‐Learned HASDM Thermospheric Mass Density Model With Uncertainty Quantification by Richard J. Licata, Piyush M. Mehta, W. Kent Tobiska, S. Huzurbazar

“…Three input sets are also tested, showing improved performance when introducing time histories for geomagnetic indices. These models leverage Monte Carlo dropout to provide uncertainty estimates, and the use of the NLPD loss function results in well‐calibrated uncertainty estimates while only increasing error by 0.25% (<10% mean absolute error) relative to MSE. …”

Dynamic behavior and residual performance of CFDSTCs under coupled collision and blast loads by Yongtao Mi, Huiqi Ren, Chenxi Sun, Jian Zhao, Weiqiang Wang, Zailin Yang, Yicun Chen

“…Second, the damage propagation process of CFDSTCs subjected to the separate collision and CCB loads was investigated, and the patterns of damage, deflection (D), and impact force (F) time histories were comparatively analyzed. The performance level of CFDSTCs after the CCB loads was determined based on the damage index thresholds. …”
