Designing intercultural space. A multi-scalar approach in the Albergheria neighbourhood in Palermo by Federico Wulff Barreiro, Renzo Lecardane, Paola La Scala

“…Enhancing these changes, and designing intercultural spaces for local communities, is a complex and urgent spatial challenge, that should be addressed by a multi-scalar approach aiming to integrate urban, architectural and public spaces. This paper illustrates a research-action resulting from a collective work developed on key urban spaces of the Albergheria neighbourhood of Palermo, where a design-led research based on a multi-scalar regeneration approach (urban, architectural and public space) can reframe the role of architecture and spatial practices as agents of social, intercultural inclusion and spatial reactivation at different scales.…”

When Inflation Causes No Increase in Claim Amounts by Vytaras Brazauskas, Bruce L. Jones, Ričardas Zitikis

“…We develop appropriate statistical inferential methods to quantify the inflation rate and illustrate them using simulated data. Our solution hinges on the recognition that the distribution of the number of observed losses changes from year to year depending on the inflation rate.…”

Competition for a single resource and coexistence of several species in the chemostat by Nahla Abdellatif, Radhouane Fekih-Salem, Tewfik Sari

“…We study a model of the chemostat with several species in competition for a single resource.We take into account the intra-specific interactions between individuals of the same population of micro-organisms andwe assume that the growth rates are increasing and the dilution rates are distinct.Using the concept of steady-state characteristics, we present a geometric characterization of the existence and stability of all equilibria.Moreover, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the control parameters of the system to have a positive equilibrium.Using a Lyapunov function, we give a global asymptotic stability result for the competition model of several species.The operating diagram describes the asymptotic behavior of this model with respect to control parametersand illustrates the effect of the intra-specific competition on the coexistence region of the species.…”

Generalized Weighted Statistical Convergence for Double Sequences of Fuzzy Numbers and Associated Korovkin-Type Approximation Theorem by Abdullah Alotaibi

“…Moreover, we apply our new concept of weighted λ,μ-statistical convergence of order γ1,γ2 to prove Korovkin-type approximation theorem for functions of two variables in a fuzzy sense. Finally, an illustrative example is provided with the help of q-analogue of fuzzy Bernstein operators for bivariate functions which shows the significance of our approximation theorem.…”

A hybrid MARWIP-CODAS techniques for optimizing sourcing decisions in complex Fermatean fuzzy N soft sets by Anukokila Paraman, Nishanthini Rajendran, Radhakrishnan Bheeman

“…Furthermore, we employ the hybrid decision-making approach to an IVCFFNs environment to deal with complex uncertainty information in real-world decision-making problems. In addition, to illustrate the utility and uniqueness of this approach, the proposed model is adapted to supplier selection problem and the obtained results are compared with other standard group decision-making methods.…”
