Effect of Damping and Yielding on the Seismic Response of 3D Steel Buildings with PMRF by Alfredo Reyes-Salazar, Achintya Haldar, Ramon Eduardo Rodelo-López, Eden Bojórquez

“…This reduction can significantly vary from one structural idealization to another and is smaller for global than for local response parameters, which in turn depends on the particular local response parameter. …”

Covering the news to develop students’ understanding of political responsibility in social studies classrooms? by Roger Olsson, Martin Jakobsson

“… Highlights: - Teachers do not explicitly frame the news as questions about political responsibility - Teachers do not switch between individual and social responsibility when covering the news - There is little room for students to explore their own understanding of political responsibility in the classrooms - A didactic model for developing political responsibility covering the news is discussed Purpose: The article discusses to what extent and in what ways teachers make room for students to develop their understanding of political responsibility when covering the news in social studies classrooms. …”

Goal adjustment processes as coping responses to a blocked goal: the sample case of ostracism by Farina Rühs, Farina Rühs, Werner Greve, Cathleen Kappes

“…Finally, participants worked alone on a cognitive task to give regulatory responses some time to unfold. After each phase, dependent measures were recorded (e.g., indicators of GD and well-being).ResultsExclusion (vs. inclusion) in Cyberball lead to a decrease in subjective attainability of the belonging goal (goal blockage) and to affective-cognitive and behavioral GD (e.g., explicit devaluation of the belonging goal and the own group, behavioral deprioritization of ostracizing compared to new group members in a following game). …”

KNOT OPTIMIZATION FOR BI-RESPONSE SPLINE NONPARAMETRIC REGRESSION WITH GENERALIZED CROSS-VALIDATION (GCV) by Andre Fajry Al Barra, Dewi Retno Sari Saputro

“…Therefore, this article discusses the retrieval of optimal knot points using the generalized cross-validation method in the nonparametric bi-response spline regression model. The research results showed that the generalized-cross validation method is the best method for selecting nodes from other methods such as CV, AIC, BIC, RSS, or a more explicit validation-based approach method because of the development of the Cross Validation (CV) method which automatically selects the optimal number of nodes based on the balance between bias and variance. …”

Frequency response function of cracked Timoshenko beam measured by a distributed piezoelectric sensor by Nguyen Tien Khiem, Tran Thanh Hai, Nguyen Thi Lan, Ho Quang Quyet, Ha Thanh Ngoc, Pham Van Kha

“…Then, the output charge produced in the piezoelectric layer is calculated from the MFRF and therefore obtained frequency-dependent function is called electrical frequency response function (EFRF) for the integrated beam. This concept of FRF depends only on exciting position and can be explicitly expressed through crack parameters. …”

Lack of explicit consideration for producing equivalent nerve responses could contribute to clinical outcomes not replicating promising results from preclinical animal studies. …”
