Improvement of the ergonomical structure of Knapsack sprayer to propel cart sprayer (PCS) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A sprayer is a device used to spray a liquid projection mostly used in agriculture crop used to apply such as pesticides. The sprayer’s usage are based on the type of the background of the farmers scale in agriculture. Large scale of farmers will use the

Collaborative platooning and routing for mixed fleets of electric automated vehicles and conventional trucks

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract The application of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) is well‐established in closed environments such as port terminals, while their operation in open areas remains challenging. In this work, we set out to overcome this limitation by introducing platooning as a transfer mode in heterogeneous vehicle networks.

“They Look At Us Like Parasites”: The Corporeal Stigmatization and Pathologization of Deportees in Tijuana, Mexico

open access: yesMedical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the embodied and institutional forms of marginalization experienced by Mexican deportees in Tijuana. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork conducted in clinics and social service organizations, it explores how deportees are corporeally stigmatized, denied legal recognition, and pathologized as addicts in need of coercive ...

Improvable Knapsack Problems

open access: yes, 2016
We consider a variant of the knapsack problem, where items are available with different possible weights. Using a separate budget for these item improvements, the question is: Which items should be improved to which degree such that the resulting classic knapsack problem yields maximum profit?

Links between trauma and psychotic symptoms: Integrating cognitive behavioural and neuropsychoanalytic models of psychosis

open access: yesPsychology and Psychotherapy: Theory, Research and Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Cognitive‐behavioural therapy for psychosis (CBTp) achieves small to modest effect sizes, which invites the question, ‘What clinical modifications might improve outcomes?’ This paper proposes an integration of CBTp with a neuropsychoanalytic approach that in clinical practice might extend the gains achieved by CBTp alone.

Solution Methods for the Multiple-Choice Knapsack Problem and Their Applications

open access: yesMathematics
The Knapsack Problem belongs to the best-studied classical problems in combinatorial optimization. The Multiple-choice Knapsack Problem (MCKP) represents a generalization of the problem, with various application fields such as industry, transportation ...

Formation process of the gravel‐dominated deposit from the 2011 Tohoku‐oki tsunami in Ofunato, northeastern Japan, inferred by integrating sedimentology and tsunami modelling

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tsunami deposits serve as geological records of past events and are essential for understanding the occurrence and dynamics of tsunamis. However, conventional research has largely focused on sandy and boulder deposits, leaving gravel‐dominated tsunami deposits comparatively underexplored; furthermore, their characteristics and formation ...

Enhancing computational efficiency in solving Knapsack problem: insights from algorithmic parallelization and optimization

open access: yesAdvances in Computing and Engineering
The Knapsack problem is a combinatorial optimization problem whose exact solution using exhaustive search method is impractical. Hence, the application of approximate algorithms is usually considered when encountering this optimization problem.

PKCHD: Towards a Probabilistic Knapsack Public-Key Cryptosystem with High Density

open access: yesInformation, 2019
By introducing an easy knapsack-type problem, a probabilistic knapsack-type public key cryptosystem (PKCHD) is proposed. It uses a Chinese remainder theorem to disguise the easy knapsack sequence. Thence, to recover the trapdoor information, the implicit

Mechanism Design without Money via Stable Matching [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mechanism design without money has a rich history in social choice literature. Due to the strong impossibility theorem by Gibbard and Satterthwaite, exploring domains in which there exist dominant strategy mechanisms is one of the central questions in ...
