Neuro-fuzzy knowledge processing in intelligent learning environments for improved student diagnosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper, a neural network implementation for a fuzzy logic-based model of the diagnostic process is proposed as a means to achieve accurate student diagnosis and updates of the student model in Intelligent Learning Environments.

Zwitterionic Self‐Assembled Monolayer for Simultaneous Noise Suppression and Hole Extraction in High‐Performance Near‐Infrared Organic Photodetectors

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a new hole transporting material (HTM) mechanism for self‐assembled monolayers in near‐infrared organic photodetectors. The formation of zwitterions induces a strong electric field that significantly increases the work function of HTM‐coated indium tin oxide substrates. The devices exhibit low dark current and noise, along with high

Using shear modulus to predict the bearing capacity of strip foundations on sand [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
This paper reports results of a study to predict load-settlement behaviour of strip foundations on a dry uncemented sand using only soil stiffness data, under both working loads and extreme loads.

A Formal Framework for Concrete Reputation Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In a reputation-based trust-management system, agents maintain information about the past behaviour of other agents. This information is used to guide future trust-based decisions about interaction.

Suppression of Photo‐Mediated Traps in Integrated Organic Photovoltaic–Photodetector Devices via N‐Type Self‐Assembly‐Driven Interfacial Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Conventional unstable electron transport layers (ETLs) limit self‐powered organic sensors. This work resolves this by developing a n‐type self‐assembled monolayer (SAM), “3‐PAPh”. This SAM forms a chemically stable and structurally ordered interface that fundamentally suppresses defect formation.

Heave analysis of shallow foundations founded in swelling clayey soil at N’Gaous city in Algeria

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2020
The design of shallow foundations on swelling soils needs a thorough study to evaluate the effect of swelling potential soil on the final foundation heave.

Performance of shallow anchor in ice-rich silt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2014Shallow anchor systems have been widely used for decades due to their time and cost efficiency. Yet when it comes to cold regions like Alaska, new challenges caused by the harsh environment need to be ...

Trap‐Assisted Transport and Neuromorphic Plasticity in Lead‐Free 2D Perovskites PEA2SnI4

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
An artificial retina built from lead‐free layered perovskite (PEA)2SnI4 converts light input into a persistent photocurrent and sums successive flashes over time. Micro/nanocrystals integrated on electrodes act as synapse‐like pixels that perform temporal integration directly in hardware. This in‐sensor preprocessing merges detection and computation on

Quantitative Study on the Impact of Surcharge on Nearby Foundations

open access: yesBuildings
Situated within the context of a soft ground foundation at an iron ore mining site, this study investigates the impact of substantial surcharges on the settlement of such foundations and the adjacent infrastructure.
