Analysis and Simulation of Thermodynamic Diagrams of Convective and Destructive Storms in Mountainous Regions (Case Study: Meshkinshahr City) by Darius Yarahmadi, Hamid Mir Hashmi, Habib Aryan Tabar

“…The simulation of thermodynamic diagrams and calculation of physical indices with six hour time observation for this rainy day revealed that the most important factor in causing this rainfall is the different layering of humidity of the vertical layers, in which the potential temperature and equivalent potential temperature are higher than the hours before the beginning of precipitation to the beginning of precipitation, the trend is decreasing. …”

Analysis and Simulation of Intervention Strategies against Bus Bunching by means of an Empirical Agent-Based Model by Wei Liang Quek, Ning Ning Chung, Vee-Liem Saw, Lock Yue Chew

“…Under the scenario where the buses have the same velocity, we found that all three strategies improve both the waiting and travelling times of the commuters. However, when the buses have different velocities, only the centralized-pulsing scheme consistently outperforms the control scenario where the buses periodically bunch together.…”

Human, too human? Experience, Learning, Interaction with AI by Eleonora Sparano

“…The multiplication of the spheres of interaction between humans and AI embodied in social robots makes it possible to consolidate a partnership with interesting developments from an epistemological point of view and with possible applications in which two intelligences of different natures, organic and inorganic, can for the first time work together to produce knowledge. The pairing of social robots with humans makes it increasingly clear that it is possible to work in integrated and mixed teams composed of different types of actors, which already demonstrate interesting levels of effectiveness in work and training. …”
