Rate‐type and integral‐type sectional analysis for time‐dependent response with the fib Model Code 2020

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the time‐dependent behavior of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures using integral‐ and rate‐type formulations, applying the concrete creep and steel relaxation models from the fib Model Code 2020. The stress–strain law for aging concrete is expressed by a second‐order differential equation, but a single rate‐type

Optimising Wave Energy Plant Location Through Neutrosophic Multi‐Criteria Group Decision‐Making

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global shift towards sustainable energy has intensified research into renewable sources, particularly wave energy. Pakistan, with its long coastline, holds significant potential for wave energy development. However, identifying optimal locations for wave energy plants involves evaluating complex, multi‐faceted criteria.

A Universal Meta‐Heuristic Framework for Influence Maximisation in Hypergraphs

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Influence maximisation (IM) aims to select a small number of nodes that are able to maximise their influence in a network and covers a wide range of applications. Despite numerous attempts to provide effective solutions in simple networks, higher‐order interactions between entities in various real‐world systems are usually not taken into ...

Beyond performance: Emotions before and after semi‐high‐stakes mathematics testing among school‐aged students

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous research has shown that testing differs significantly from other classroom activities and is associated with heightened negative emotions and lower levels of positive emotions. However, relatively little is known about students' emotions surrounding testing, particularly in higher‐stakes assessment settings. Aims This study

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

The Role of Dice in the Emergence of the Probability Calculus

open access: yesInternational Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary The early development of the probability calculus was clearly influenced by the roll of dice. However, while dice have been cast since time immemorial, documented calculations on the frequency of various dice throws date back only to the mid‐13th century.
