Resistance of compressed elements with small eccentricity taking into account actual height of the compressed concrete zone by I. T. Mirsayapov, G. T. Apkhadze

“…The analytical expression for the height of the compressed zone is obtained based on the simplified three-linear diagram of the deformation of concrete under compression. Reasonable refinement of the height of the compressed zone makes it possible to achieve maximum convergence with the results of calculations using a nonlinear deformation model without the use of iterative approaches to solving the problem.Conclusions. …”

Redesigning the Employer Value Proposition in Times of Crisis by Katarzyna Łazorko

“…Findings: The presentation of changing expectations of candidates, as well as analysis of the content of the entrepreneurs’ web pages lead to the conclusion that not many Polish enterprises have changed their Employer Value Proposition (EVP) in the last four years to adjust to expectations of potential employees (about 30% in the sample), although, due to their scale of operation their marketing budgets are probably higher than in the case of the rest of the market. There may be many reasons behind that situation, including the specificity of different industries, as well as unpredictability, and suddenness of changes in their environment. …”

Multiple Group Testing Procedures for Analysis of High-Dimensional Genomic Data by Hyoseok Ko, Kipoong Kim, Hokeun Sun

“…Moreover, detecting only a few of genes associated with a phenotype outcome among tens of thousands of genes is of main interest in genetic association studies. In this reason regularization procedures, where a phenotype outcome regresses on all genomic markers and then regression coefficients are estimated based on a penalized likelihood, have been considered as a good alternative approach to analysis of high-dimensional genomic data. …”

Mudança no uso e cobertura da terra na bacia hidrográfica do rio Araguaia e seus reflexos nos recursos hídricos, o trecho médio do rio Araguaia em Goiás by Maximiliano Bayer, Pâmela Camila Assis, Tainá Medeiros Suizu, Matheus Cardoso Gomes

“…In the last four decades, large extensions of the basin have been object of an intense transformation process associated with the advance of the agricultural frontier and changes in the form of occupation, whose consequences on the natural resources of the basin, especially water resources, are beginning to be a reason of concern for the society. For the area of the Araguaia river basin in Goiás, the analysis of land use and occupation processes showed a decrease of 33,8% for forest formation, 48,9% for savanna formation and an increase of 51,50% of the areas pasture and 510,6% of the annual and perennial crop areas. …”

RESEARCH ON DYNAMIC AND STATIC STIFFNESS CHARACTERISTICS OF MESH ELASTIC PAD by ZHAO Feng, HE ZhenXing, SHI GuangTian, CHEN QingChao, ZHOU HuaLong, WANG BinCang

“…The results show that: under the condition of constant mesh aperture,with the increase of mesh wall thickness,the static stiffness of elastic cushion plate increases and the ratio of dynamic stiffness to static stiffness decreases; under the condition of constant mesh wall thickness,with the increase of mesh aperture,the static stiffness of elastic cushion plate decreases and the ratio of dynamic stiffness to static stiffness increases;compare with the traditional grooved elastic cushion plate with similar static stiffness,the meshed elastic cushion plate has the characteristics of lower dynamic and static stiffness,smaller maximum stress value and more uniform stress distribution.Therefore,reasonable adjustment of mesh wall thickness and aperture size can make mesh elastic cushion plate suitable for track structures with different stiffness requirements,and the application of mesh structure to under rail elastic cushion plate can enhance the force transmission characteristics of cushion plate and prolong the service life of cushion plate.…”
