The UAE's cybercrime and national security laws are catching out people used to freedom of speech. He was fooling around on the edge - then his hand suddenly slipped Video: 6 men trapped at waterfall ...

This work presents a hybrid experimental technique for stress analysis in pipes due to soil-pipe interaction. It was used a variation of Digital Speckle Pattern Interferometry (DSPI) combined with a ...

How does cold milk disperse when it is dripped into hot coffee? Even the fastest supercomputers are unable to perform the necessary calculations with high precision because the underlying quantum ...

This paper aims to explore the response of a floating icesheet to a load moving in a curved path. We investigate the effect of turning on the wave patterns and strain distribution, and explore ...

This paper presents a method of equilibrium path analysis and stability analysis of an equilibrium state for a rigid origami, which consists of rigid flat faces connected by straight crease lines ...

This paper concerns the more foundational tasks of distributed dense linear algebra. While a single TPU core can already store and operate on large matrices (e.g., of size 16,384, 32,768 in single ...

Concrete diaphragm walls (CDWs) are widely used as the support of deep excavation in soft ground in urban areas due to their high bending stiffness and excellent water tightness. As per the statistics ...

Soft materials are inherently flexible and make suitable candidates for soft robots intended for specific tasks that would otherwise not be achievable (e.g., smart grips capable of picking up objects ...

I have a serious weakness for pure forms and simple geometry. What? You knew that already? I know, I’m becoming super predictable. Having said that, as much as I cannot get passed squares, rectangles, ...

The present study examined the thesis that positive affect may serve to broaden the scope of attentional filters, reducing their selectivity. The effect of positive mood states was measured in two ...
