Demarcation of the public and private in the interaction of the state and citizens on digital network platforms by V. V. Zotov

“…The empirical base was made up of a sociological study conducted to obtain information about the boundaries of privacy and publicity of personal data in the digital network space (n = 1 000 among the population over 18 years old living in metropolitan megacities and median regions by the level of informatization, 2020) and the results of Kaspersky Lab surveys conducted in 2019–2020.The conducted research allows us to assert that almost 2/3 of citizens have faced the misuse of confidential information on the Internet. …”

Sillons d’usure interproximaux : reproduction expérimentale, analyse et application des résultats aux observations sur la lignée néandertalienne by Linda Bouchneb, Bruno Maureille

“…By close comparative observations on a living man, he suggested that these grooves were produced by means of a toothpick, for cleaning the food particles accumulated in the interdental space. Since then, several authors have reported interproximal wear grooves in a wide range of fossil hominids, beginning with early Homo. …”

A Lagrangian particle model for one-dimensional transient pipe flow with moving boundary by Yuejin Cai, Jianguo Wei, Qingzhi Hou, Huaicheng Fan, Arris S. Tijsseling

“…For simulating fluid transients in pipelines with moving water-air interface, a one-dimensional Lagrangian particle model with second-order accuracy in both space and time is proposed. In this model, the meshless smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) is used to approximate the spatial derivatives in the waterhammer equations, and the symplectic leap frog scheme is used for time integration. …”

Scenario-Based Risk Assessment for Düzce Province by Zeynep Mıhçı, Hüseyin Bayraktar

“…However, following the earthquake event of 12 November 1999, 80% of the built environment in the Düzce area had been destroyed and after the removal of the ruins, it was transformed into a huge open space. Subsequently, on 9 December 1999, Düzce was declared the provincial capital city, having 20 neighborhoods, 97 villages, and 7 districts under its administration. …”

UniLF: A novel short-term load forecasting model uniformly considering various features from multivariate load data by Shiyang Zhou, Qingyong Zhang, Peng Xiao, Bingrong Xu, Geshuai Luo

“…To address the above problems, we design a novel STLF model called UniLF based on Transformer framework, which contains the proposed convolutional enhancement-fusion embedding method to capture the correlations between load and covariates for embedding, the proposed feature reconstruction-decomposition block to distill multiscale features as well as more detailed local-global variations from 2D space and the core mask-guided multiscale interactive self-attention mechanism to further realize the enhanced interactions of scale features and temporal features. …”

A Modified Wolf Pack Algorithm for Multiconstrained Sparse Linear Array Synthesis by Ting Wang, Ke-Wen Xia, Hai-Lin Tang, Su-Wei Zhang, Mukase Sandrine

“…Furthermore, because the size of each dimension of Bloch spherical coordinates is always [−1, 1], the variables transformed by solution space must satisfy the constraints of the aperture of arrays and the minimum distance between adjacent elements, which effectively avoids infallible solutions in the process of updating and mutating the position of the wolf group, reduces the judgment steps, and improves the efficiency of optimization. …”
