ABSTRACT This study investigates how the learner‐related factors of language dominance, encompassing language history, proficiency, use, and attitude, modulate congruency effects in multi‐word unit (MWU) processing among early bilinguals. Seventy Cantonese–Putonghua bilinguals completed lexical decision tasks measuring reaction time and accuracy for ...

The purpose of this paper is to propagate the input uncertainties of the degree-day method to estimate the building heating energy consumption as numerical intervals. While it is common to use average or expected values (e.g., Typical Meteorological Year)

A spectral analysis extension to DEMATEL for strategic leverage points identification
Abstract Efforts to intervene in complex systems often emphasize influential factors, yet system behavior is equally shaped by the relationships among them. Methods such as Decision‐Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) map causal structures but remain descriptive and do not identify which relationships provide the greatest leverage for ...

ABSTRACT The proliferation of AI‐generated building footprints in OpenStreetMap (OSM) has transformed crowdsourced mapping, yet the geometric characteristics associated with different digitization methods remain poorly understood. This study presents a comprehensive morphometric analysis of more than 9 million building footprints across 15 ...

Fuzzy Approximate Solution of Positive Fully Fuzzy Linear Matrix Equations
The fuzzy matrix equations A~⊗X~⊗B~=C~ in which A~, B~, and C~ are m×m, n×n, and m×n nonnegative LR fuzzy numbers matrices, respectively, are investigated.

Fuzzy method for analysing uncertainty in the sustainable design of concrete structures
The model presented here is based on fuzzy arithmetic techniques and the MIVES method, which is based, in turn, on requirement trees, value analysis and the Analytic Hierarchy Process.

Effect of magnification on determination of water retention curve using image‐based analysis
Abstract The development of an image‐based method for determining soil water retention curves (WRCs) is effective for predicting infiltration processes into soil. We investigated the effects of microscopy magnification on image resolution for estimating WRCs. Images of the soil surface were acquired at magnification of 50×, 100×, and 200×.

A Generalized Model for Fuzzy Linear Programs with Trapezoidal Fuzzy Numbers
In this paper, we generalize a linear programming problem with symmetric trapezoidal fuzzy number which is introduced by Ganesan and et al. in [3] to a general kind of trapezoidal fuzzy number. In this way, we first establish a new arithmetic operation

Smart Contracts and SME Resilience: Business Model Adaptation and International Considerations
ABSTRACT Smart contracts (SCs), appended to a blockchain, protect digital environments and their resources, processes and structures, reducing mismatches between legal and actual rights and ownership. They enhance digital resilience by improving transparency, traceability and trust in digital transactions.
