Advancing the Study of Experiential Learning: Toward Evidence-Based Effectiveness
Authors: Bansal Utkarsh , Wittman Sarah , Sorek Gaya 
Published: January 2023

In the modern education system, individuals are raised from an early age to adhere to learning processes focused around the hypo- thetical. Such conceptual learning, however, has recently been found to be less effective than a comparable style of learning called Experiential Learning, which is the process of learning by doing. By engaging students in hands-on experiences and reflection, they are better able to connect theories and knowledge learned in the classroom to real-world situations. However, the flexibility of Experiential Learning leaves it open to a wide range of interpretations, which does not establish a consistent bench- mark.
This research project focuses on establishing a concrete definition for Experiential Learning through the analysis of various experimental sce- narios and how it is measured in the post-secondary learning environ- ment. Taking into consideration the inductive processes we utilize to code our collected data, as well as the criteria we collect to filter our data. Such work would benefit a large part of the population through a more effective learning process and will allow other researchers to determine whether scenarios and other experiences fit the criteria to be evaluated as an experiential learning setting as well as design experiments that better reflect experiential learning as a whole.

Attemp of an Analysis of Human Biological Neural Algorithm for Sensing Earthquake Precursors
Authors: da Cao 
Published: January 2023

We statistically validated the 2011-2022 earthquake prediction records of Ada, the
sixth finalist of the second Chinese AETA in 2021 (Supplementary 1), who made 147
proseismic forecasts (60% of which were 5.5 magnitude earthquakes) in 12 years
with a prediction accuracy above 70% with a confidence level of 95%. Since the
reliable seismic precursor signals described by Ada and the Alfvén wave
characteristics match quite well, this paper proposes a hypothesis on how to trigger
proseismicity based on the Alfvén superlength wave model of Gillette et al. (Q G)
Note (2): When the plume of the upper mantle column intrudes into the magma and
lithosphere of the soft flow layer during the rising and falling exchange of hot and
cold molten material masses in the deep interior of the Earth, it is possible, under
certain conditions, to bulk and surface plasma sheets are formed, forming Alfven
nonlinear isolated wavelets, and Alfven waves frequently perturb the geomagnetic
field and release huge heat and kinetic energy thus triggering earthquakes.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Many useful and needed radionuclides for medicinal, astrophysical, and environmental research are produced naturally in inefficient quantities or not-at-all. In the method described here, rare cosmogenic isotopes were produced via spallation reactions in metallic vanadium and separated without adding any carriers. In the SINQ facility at the Paul Scherrer Institut, the vanadium targets were irradiated for two years with high-energy protons (≤590 MeV). After a cooling period of eight years, only relatively long-lived radionuclides such as 32Si, 44Ti, 41Ca, and 26Al remain present. After target dissolution, 32Si was first separated for a prospective half-life redetermination. The remaining 32Si-free solution was used for extracting 44Ti, 41Ca, and 26Al, three key isotopes which are scientifically interesting for nuclear astrophysics research as well as medical applications. Each separation scheme employed ion-exchange and extraction chromatography; developed and optimized using inactive model solutions analyzed with Inductively Coupled Plasma–Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP–OES). The irradiated samples were tracked with γ-ray spectroscopy for γ-ray emitting impurities. As a result, radiochemically pure sample solutions of 44Ti, 41Ca, and 26Al were obtained as “ready for use” in different application fields.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Real-time measurements of soil temperature and moisture fields in freeze-thaw areas provide data support for improving the durability of infrastructure. Compared to traditional sensors, optical fibers can determine soil temperature and moisture fields accurately, efficiently, and reliably, but their monitoring characteristics in freeze-thaw areas must be further investigated. In this study, optical fibers are applied for monitoring soil temperature and moisture in freeze-thaw soil based on distributed temperature sensing and an actively heated fiber optic method. The test results indicate that the spatial resolution of a fiber measuring tube constructed by winding optical fibers is 34 times higher than single fibers. A high correlation is confirmed between data measured by optical fibers and traditional sensors. For the soil temperature, the coefficient of determination is 0.98 and the root mean square error is 0.90°C. For the soil volumetric water content, the coefficient of determination is 0.94 and the root mean square error is 2.17 %. Furthermore, the optical fibers can identify the boundary between frozen and unfrozen soil through the value measured in the freeze-thaw process. The results reveal that the optical fibers are efficient in monitoring soil temperature and moisture fields in the freeze-thaw process and carry the advantages of in situ and distributed measurements, high measuring precision, and wide adaptability in working conditions.

Study of the duration of the solar flare of the 23 and 24 solar cycles
Authors: Hussain Imad 
Published: January 2023

Studying solar flares and their characteristics is significant for understanding the dynamics of the sun. In this work, a new view for studying the duration time of solar flares is presented. Regarding the analysis of the duration time, one of the solar flares parameters is introduced for the solar cycles 23 and 24. This is done by ordering the duration time of solar flares into five groups of minutes (<30, 30-60, 60 90, 90-120, >120) and calculating the total annual duration time of solar flares for each group. The total annual duration time is also calculated for each class of solar flare classification (B, C, M, X). Their relationship with both F10.7 and Kp-index are also studied. We found that approximately 41% of solar flares occur within 6-12 minutes for both solar cycles. Additionally, the total average of their duration time is 19.1 and 19.6 minutes, respectively.Also, the average duration time of the ascending phase is less than the descending phase of both solar cycles for all classes of solar flares, except for B-class, which is vice versa. The relationship between the duration time of solar flares with F10.7 is strong. In contrast, the relationship with the Earth’s magnetic field is weak.
Experimental insights into adhesion and friction between nominally dry rough surfaces
Authors: Weber Bart , Scheibert Julien , de Boer Maarten P. , Dhinojwala Ali 
Published: January 2023

AbstractAdhesion and friction between solids in ambient air control applications such as precision positioning and traction of tires. For all practical surfaces, the interfaces between solids are rough. Contact occurs at nano- or micro-contact junctions and the contact area of these junctions changes upon normal or shear loading and during sliding. The multiscale roughness, material parameters such as interfacial bonding, mechanical properties, sliding velocity, and normal load all contribute to adhesion and friction, resulting in diverse phenomena. Here, we highlight four recent advances relevant to materials ranging from ceramics to elastomers. They elucidate the importance of real contact area for soft and hard materials and of rate-state-friction models for explaining the transition from stick–slip to steady sliding for hard contacts. We also outline some remaining open experimental challenges related to friction and adhesion of dry multi-contact interfaces.

Modeling the surface topography dependence of friction, adhesion, and contact compliance
Authors: Müser Martin H. , Nicola Lucia 
Published: January 2023

AbstractThe small-scale topography of surfaces critically affects the contact area of solids and thus the forces acting between them. Although this has long been known, only recent advances made it possible to reliably model interfacial forces and related quantities for surfaces with multiscale roughness. This article sketches both recent and traditional approaches to their mechanics, while addressing the relevance of nonlinearity and nonlocality arising in soft- and hard-matter contacts.Graphical abstract

The fact that the object of desiderium for Bonaventure is located in the very life of the Blessed Trinity results in its peculiar and original understanding. The object of desire determines its internal structure and, therefore, influences its very nature. In the writings of the Doctor Seraphicus we can numbered at least three essential features of human desiderium Dei, which desire obteins from its object: the Seraphicus understands the desire as (1) a kind of love, as (2) a gift, and finally as (3) important feature of human nature as such.

OXIDE LAYER CHARACTERIZATION OF AlMg2 CLADDING OF IRRADIATED U3Si2/Al FUEL WITH 4,8 gU/cm3 DENSITY. To investigate the performance of AlMg2 cladding in the U3Si2/Al dispersion fuel, oxide layer characterization of AlMg2 cladding of the irradiated U3Si2/Al fuel with 4.8 gU/cm3 density was conducted. The oxide layer on the surface of AlMg2 cladding is one of the changes that occur on the cladding after the U3Si2/Al fuel plate has been irradiated in the RSG-GAS reactor to a burn-up of ∼40%. The characterization and observation of the oxide layer was conducted using SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Samples with a size of 3x3 mm were taken from the middle of the fuel plate (middle position). After cutting, metallographic preparation includes mounting, grinding, polishing, and ultrasonic cleaning. SEM preparation was carried out by sputter coating using Au layer. The oxide layer on the AlMg2 cladding has a thickness of 10.3 µm with a uniformly distributed cracks along the oxide layer.Keyword: LEU, uranium-silicide, post-irradiation examination, AlMg2 cladding, oxide layer.
Attenuate the Network Lifetime in Wireless Sensor Networks
Authors: Dadhirao Chandrika , Sankar Sangam Ravi 
Published: January 2023

Wireless Sensor Networks are one of the well-established and as well as im- proving areas, which have a prominent role in many existing technologies. The day-to-day advancement in this field made a direction for growing low-power, low-cost, along with multi functioning of the sensors. This collective formation of the system with motes or sensors is Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). WSNs follow the principle of ”EAAs” stands for Everyone, Anywhere, Anytime. The nodes in the network have certain limitations in terms of memory, power, etc. Clustering the nodes in the network is an efficient and most preferable technique to address the problem of better performance of the wireless sensor networks. In this work, we provide a re-modified approach for cluster head selection for the transmission of data between nodes, cluster heads, and mote with a low packet loss ratio. The Statistical results of the two existing approaches and the pro- posed approach are compared for 100 iterations and shown in results. The time complexity of the proposed approach is also calculated.
Symbiotic Organisms Search Optimization to Predict Optimal Thread Count for Multi-threaded Applications
Authors: H. Malave Sachin , K. Shinde Subhash 
Published: January 2023

Multicore systems have emerged as a cost-effective option for the growing demands for high-performance, low-energy computing. Thread management has long been a source of concern for developers, as overheads associated with it reduce the overall throughput of the multicore processor systems. One of the most complex problems with multicore processors is determining the optimal number of threads for the execution of multithreaded programs. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel solution based on a modified symbiotic organism search (MSOS) algorithm which is a bio-inspired algorithm used for optimization in various engineering domains. This technique uses mutualism, commensalism and parasitism behaviours seen in organisms for searching the optimal solutions in the available search space. The algorithm is simulated on the NVIDIA DGX Intel-Xeon E5-2698-v4 server with PARSEC 3.0 benchmark suit. The results show that keeping the thread count equal to the number of processors available in the system is not necessarily the best strategy to get maximum speedup when running multithreaded programs. It was also observed that when programs are run with the optimal thread count, the execution time is substantially decreased, resulting in energy savings due to the use of fewer processors than are available in the system.
Exploring Post-Adoption Behavior of the UPI users with Cognitive and Affective Factors
Authors: Kaur Sandeep , Katoch Rupinder , Rana Avinash 
Published: January 2023

The National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) has invested a sizable amount of money in the country's massive payment infrastructure in an effort to enhance the user experience. However, in order for investments to be profitable, NPCI must guarantee the ongoing use of technological solutions and post-adoptive behaviors like continuance and recommendation intention. The impact of cognitive factors (i.e. Performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influences, facilitating conditions; personal innovativeness) and affective factors (such as satisfaction) on conative factors (such as continuation and recommendation intention) in the perspective of UPI applications (apps) was investigated using the UTAUT model. Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling when applied on 651 users (PLS-SEM) showed that satisfaction had a direct impact on continuation intentions, which in turn had an impact on recommendations intentions. It was discovered that all cognitive factors, including performance expectations, effort expectations, and facilitating conditions, have an impact on satisfaction. According to the study, adding a significant individual difference variable—personal innovativeness with regard to information technology—would aid in our understanding of the role that these factors play in the development of continuous intention. It further examines the influence of trust and security, and the pace of innovation on continued intentions. Through the mediating function of user satisfaction, it also looked at the impact of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating variable, and personal innovativeness on the continuance intentions of the UPI system. All factors have been shown to be significant. Future researchers will find it extremely helpful that the study used a validated instrument to better understand user adherence and referral intentions. Therefore, this study adds to the limited body of knowledge in the payment industry literature by examining how users perceive UPI apps and post-adoption behaviors.
