A detailed study of α-relaxation in epoxy/carbon nanoparticles composites using computational analysis by C. A. Stergiou, A. Z. Stimoniaris, C. G. Delides

“…The full dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) spectra, obtained for the thermomechanical characterization of the partially cured DGEBA/TETA/CB and water saturated DGEBA/TETA/MWCNT composites, reveal a complex behaviour as the α-relaxation appears to consist of more than one individual peaks. By employing some basic calculations along with an optimization procedure, which utilizes the pseudo-Voigt profile function, the experimental data have been successfully analyzed. …”

Modern extracorporeal circulatory support systems (centrifugal pumps and oxygenators). Literature review by O. Yu. Esipova, A. P. Kuleshov, V. K. Bogdanov, A. S. Esipov, N. V. Grudinin

“…An in-depth study of each of the existing devices is important not only to optimize patient outcomes, but also to create a safer, more effective, smallersized new device. This review considers existing temporary circulatory support devices, as well as oxygenators, that supplement the system to protect lung function. …”

Discourse markers in the speech of Italian tourist guides: a corpus-based study by Iolanda Alfano

“…The results show that DMs are powerful indicators of the type of register: their functional distribution responds to specific communicative needs and the choice of preferred DMs depends very much on their polyfunctionality: the more polyfunctional they are, the more frequent they are likely to be. …”

Review of Different Types of Neural Network Architectures by T. L. Makosso, A. Almaktoof, K. Abo-Al-Ez

“… Innovative technologies come with such a huge amount of data that can only computerize with fast and more complex software. As time went by, more complicated problems arose such as pattern recognition, machine learning and prediction and unfortunately the conventional computer system was unable to carry out such tasks. …”

Semantic Motivation of Nominative Relatives as a Problem of Modern Lexicograph by N. A. Aksarina, L. V. Basova

“…The question of the semantic motivation of denominative relatives — significant units in the prepositional function is raised in the article. The influence on the volume and structure of the lexical part of the meaning of denominative relatives and their adverbial homonyms of the same semes inherited from the deriving name is comprehended. …”

Low-resource MobileBERT for emotion recognition in imbalanced text datasets mitigating challenges with limited resources. by Muhammad Hussain, Caikou Chen, Sami S Albouq, Khlood Shinan, Fatmah Alanazi, Muhammad Waseem Iqbal, M Usman Ashraf

“…In order to tackle this challenge, our paper proposes a novel loss called Focal Weighted Loss (FWL) with adversarial training and the compact language model MobileBERT. Our proposed loss function handles the problem of imbalanced emotion classification through Focal Weighted Loss and adversarial training and does not require large batch sizes or more computational resources. …”

Spreading width converted from optical model for α incident scattering by Fumimoto Toshihiro, Maeda Taiki, Ishihara Masaya, Nakamoto Riu, Ito Makoto

“…The dissociation strength of 44Ti into the α + 40Ca continuum states is calculated to see the effect of the spreading width more clearly. We also estimate the upper value of the decay width into the compound nuclear state, which is a part of the spreading width, on the basis of the formula similar to the strength function originally used in the low-energy neutron scattering.…”
