Analysis of flight delay propagation characteristics based on complex network propagation dynamics by Xinsheng YANG, Xiaolong XIE, Ming WEI

“…In order to address the problem that the existing susceptible-infected-recovered(SIR) model does not consider the impact of the topology of the airport network on the flight delay propagation, the topological characteristic index of the airport network was calculated based on the complex network theory.The comprehensive importance of each airport was evaluated by using the entropy weighted technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution(TOPSIS) method, and all airports were divided into several classes, thus the improved SIR model for the flight delay propagation of airports in different classes was established and the propagation thresholds of the model were solved. …”

Influence and reinforcement of gate bias on total dose effect of SiC MOSFET by QIU Leshan, WU Zhikang, CHEN Yan, LI Chengzhan, BAI Yun

“…The effect and mechanism of gate bias voltage and high-temperature gate bias annealing after irradiation on the threshold drift of MOSFETs were investigated. Through the analysis using the midband voltage method, it was found that the negative threshold drift was mainly caused by the capture of the irradiation-generated holes by near-interface traps. …”

Urban heat island classification through alternative normalized difference vegetation index by N. Chanpichaigosol, C. Chaichana, D. Rinchumphu

“…Urban heat island was classified based on standard deviation thresholds. The results were analyzed and compared visually using geographic information system, incorporating spatial variations and heat intensity patterns to better understand the urban landscape.FINDINGS: Adjusting normalized difference vegetation index values showed a nonlinear relationship with Land Surface Temperature predictions, where certain thresholds caused unexpected decreases in Land Surface Temperature. …”
