Nonlinear vibration analysis of a 3DOF double pendulum system near resonance by Asmaa Amer, W. Zhang, T.S. Amer, H. Li

“…The amplitudes and phases over a specific period of time have been graphed to illustrate the movement at any given instant. Furthermore, in order to evaluate the advantageous effects of different values pertaining to the physical parameters on the system behavior, the graphed representations of the obtained results, resonance reactions and areas of the stability are provided. …”

Convolutional Neural Networks for Direction of Arrival Estimation Compared to Classical Estimators and Bounds by Christopher J. Bell, Kaushallya Adhikari, Andrew Brown

“…These results indicate that the performance improvements from CNNs are highest for situations where there is signal model to data mismatch (imperfect information). This work also illustrates that the CNN estimators developed in this work exceed the CRLB and are biased estimators caused by the lack of unbiased constraint in the loss function during training of the CNNs.…”

Effective theory approach to new physics with flavour: general framework and a leptoquark example by Marzia Bordone, Oscar Catà, Thorsten Feldmann

“…Our formalism represents an extension of the well-known minimal-flavour-violation approach, and uses Froggatt-Nielsen charges to define the flavour power-counting. As a relevant illustration of the formalism, we apply it to the flavour structures which could be induced by a U1 vector leptoquark, which represents one of the possible explanations for the recent hints of flavour non-universality in semileptonic B-decays. …”

Epistemic Roots, Universal Routes and Ontological Roofs of African “Ritual Archives”: Disciplinary Formations in African Thought by Oluwatoyin Vincent Adepoju

“…“Epistemic and Metaphysical Integrity in Ifá”, the second part, examines his argument for a re-centering of studies in classical African thought within the epistemic and metaphysical frames of those bodies of knowledge, using the Yoruba origin Ifá system of knowledge, spiritual development and divination as an example, an illustration I analyze through my own understanding of the cognitive and metaphysical framework of Ifá. …”
