description: The evolving business landscape has given rise to project complexities. The risk of encountering project managementchallenges, like cost overruns, delays, and resource misallocation has increased. Early identification and mitigation, of thesechallenges are important to improving project outcomes. This study aims to use machine learning (ML) techniques in identifying,and predicting project management challenges, offering project managers actionable insights, and options to enhance decisionmaking, and project success. Modern projects with their high level of complexity, and large data set volumes, often pose challenges.This study probes into whether ML techniques, can address these limitations, and improve the identification of project managementchallenges; that traditional project management tools deploy. Features such as budget, team size, stakeholder satisfaction, and riskfactors were selected for analysis. Machine learning models, such as Random Forest, Gradient Boosting, XGBoost, and others, weretrained, and evaluated using Confusion matrices, ROC curves, and precision-recall curves. Hyperparameter tuning was used tooptimize model performance, and offers contribution to project management research. Moderate success was achieved, from themachine learning models, in predicting project management challenges. The Tree-based models, particularly Random Forest andXGBoost, showed the most promise, with ROC AUC values range of 0.48 and 0.55, indicating moderate predictive capabilities.The models also highlighted the challenges of dealing, with imbalanced datasets, and the complexity of predicting project outcomes.This study gives an understanding, of the application of machine learning in the early identification of project challenges, andcontributing both academically and practically in the field of project management.

description: The different roles and natures of spacetime appearing in a quantum field theory and in classical physics are analyzed implying that a quantum theory of gravitation is not necessarily a quantum theory of curved spacetime. Developing an alternative approach to quantum gravity starts with the postulate that inertial and gravitational energy-momentum need not be the same for virtual quantum states. Separating their roles naturally leads to the quantum gauge field theory of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms of an inner four-dimensional space. The classical limit of this theory coupled to a quantized scalar field is derived for an on-shell particle where inertial and gravitational energy-momentum coincide. In that process the symmetry under volume-preserving diffeomorphisms disappears and a new symmetry group emerges: the group of coordinate transformations of four-dimensional spacetime and with it General Relativity coupled to a classical relativistic point particle.

description: How would you would feel when you would come to know that you can increase your memory or learning skills with the help of music. The research was conducted under the research question of how does music affects human memory. Participants were taken and given a questionnaire having several different questions. Responses were taken which gives the results that yes music do have effect on memory. The place where background music is being played helps one to relax their mind and body. Basically it is a tension reliever because by listening to music dopamine is released in our body which is a feel good hormone. And thus a relaxed mind can do work with more efficiency. Music can cast anyone into any mood. So the choice of your music is also much related with your personality as well. With the help of musical notes and rhythm one can easily learn other languages as well which are foreign to them. It has been seen that music also affects mood as well. There are three types of memory and memory on basic level is the retention of sensory information. Music even effects a baby which is present I n the womb of mother. Music has much importance in entertainment like in TV and film industry. The etymology of music goes back to the Greek word “mousike” which is derived from “muses” the Greek goddess of art. Einstein became good at study by the influence of music. Kids of kindergarten are taught alphabets in a tune so that they could remember that easily, music is very much important aspect of our lives plus it also has great and positive influence on memory.

description: The rapid conversion of U.S. dairy farmers from Grade B to Grade A milk production could eliminate Grade B milk for manufacturing as the basis for all U.S. milk prices. This paper suggests that classified pricing and pooling policies under Federal milk marketing orders are direct factors causing this conversion. A policy to lower Class I price differentials in Federal orders while increasing Grade B support prices could maintain a viable manufacturing milk market and thereby maintain the Minnesota-Wisconsin Grade B price as a viable basis for determining all Class I prices. This policy could be followed under existing orders, probably without creating disorderly marketing conditions.

description: Though the notion of oral corrective feedback has been noticed for decades, it is still one of the controversial topics in classroom settings, which also raises awareness of feedback provision (Agudo, 2013:265). While feedback can help students improve their language proficiency (Rydahl, 2015), it can also destroy their performance and self-confidence in the case of over-correction (Calsiyao, 2015; Méndez & Cruz, 2012). Therefore, instead of trying to manipulate the feedback provided, there is a need to investigate the students' responses upon receiving feedback. This study focuses on how students respond to the feedback given by teachers by examining the opinions and feelings of sophomore English-major students when receiving feedback. A mixed-method study was employed, using individual and group online interviews, classroom observations, and a questionnaire to collect data. The findings revealed that students' positive responses outweighed the negative responses. In addition, some of their unwanted reactions even originated from objective factors, i.e. their mood or self-discipline. From the above analyses, it is suggested that teachers should decide on a beneficial and efficient way of providing feedback to enhance learners' speaking.

Spin relaxation in a zinc-blende (110) symmetric quantum well with delta-doping

description: The spin relaxation of a two-dimensional electron system (2DES) formed in a symmetric quantum well is studied theoretically when the quantum well is parallel to the (110) plane of the zinc-blende structure, the spin polarization is perpendicular to the well, and electrons occupy only the ground subband. The spin relaxation rate is calculated as a function of the distribution of donor impurities which are placed in the well layer. Considered processes of the spin relaxation are (1) intrasubband process by impurity-potential-induced spin-orbit interaction (SOI), which is the Elliott-Yafet mechanism in the 2DES, and (2) virtual intersubband processes consisting of a spin flip by (2a) well-potential-induced SOI or (2b) the Dresselhaus SOI, and a scattering from an impurity. It is shown that all of the above processes disappear, when all impurities are located on the center plane of the well. Even if impurities are distributed over three (110) atomic layers, the spin relaxation rate is two orders of magnitude lower than that for the uniform distribution over the well width of 7.5\ nm. In GaAs/AlGaAs type-I quantum wells the processes (1) and (2a) interfere constructively, being dominant over (2b) for the well width of $\sim$10\ nm, while in some type-II quantum wells they can interfere destructively.

description: Using the WKB approximation, massless and massive Dirac quasinormal modes (QNMs) are studied in spherically symmetric regular spacetimes. We analyze the relationships between QNM frequencies and the parameters (angular momentum number $l$, magnetic monopole charge $β$ and the mass of the field $m$), and discuss the extreme charge of magnetic monopole $β_{e}$ for spherically symmetric regular black holes (BHs). Furthermore, we apply an expansion method to expand QNMs in inverse powers of $L=l+1/2$, and confirm good precision with $l>n$. Finally, we improve traditional finite difference method to be available in massive Dirac case, and illuminate the dynamical evolution of massive Dirac field.

description: Pesticides have been responsible for much of the yield gains in modern farm production. Farmers used 661 million pounds of pesticides in 1976, up 38 percent from 1971. Crops accounted for 98 percent of farm pesticide use, and herbicides accounted for 60 percent of the crop use. Herbicides also accounted for most of the overall rise in pesticide use between 1971 and 1976, increasing 76 percent. A slowdown in the pesticide growth rate can be expected, however, because of concern over possible adverse effects and because of greater use of such alternatives as biological controls and integrated pest management.
A comparison of the Higgs sectors of the CMSSM and NMSSM for a 126 GeV Higgs boson

description: The recent discovery of a Higgs-like boson at the LHC with a mass of 126 GeV has revived the interest in supersymmetric models, which predicted a Higgs boson mass below 130 GeV long before its discovery. We compare systematically the allowed parameter space in the constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (CMSSM) and the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Model (NMSSM) by minimizing the chi^2 function with respect to all known constraints from accelerators and cosmology using GUT scale parameters. For the CMSSM the Higgs boson mass at tree level is below the Z^0 boson mass and large radiative corrections are needed to obtain a Higgs boson mass of 126 GeV, which requires stop squark masses in the multi-TeV range. In contrast, for the NMSSM light stop quarks are allowed, since in the NMSSM at tree level the Higgs boson mass can be above the Z^0 boson mass from mixing with the additional singlet Higgs boson. Predictions for the scalar boson masses are given in both models with emphasis on the unique signatures of the NMSSM, where the heaviest scalar Higgs boson decays in the two lighter scalar Higgs bosons with a significant branching ratio, in which case one should observe double Higgs boson production at the LHC. Such a signal is strongly suppressed in the CMSSM. In addition, since the LSP is higgsino-like, Higgs boson decays into LSPs can be appreciable, thus leading to invisible Higgs decays.

description: We focus on exclusive production of neutral technipion $\tilde π^0$ in $pp$ collisions at the LHC, i.e. on $p p \to p p \tilde π^0$ reaction. The dependence of the cross section on parameters of recently proposed vector-like Technicolor model is studied. Characteristic features of the differential distributions are discussed. For not too large technipion masses the diphoton decay channel has the dominant branching fraction. This is also the main reason for an enhanced production of neutral technipions in $γγ$-fusion reaction. We discuss potential backgrounds of the QCD and QED origin to the $p p \to p p (\tildeπ^0 \to γγ)$ process at large invariant $γγ$ masses. We conclude that compared to inclusive case the signal-to-background ratio in the considered exclusive reaction is vary favorable which thereby could serve as a good probe for Technicolor dynamics searches at the LHC.

Effect of Change of Rail Profile on Rolling Contact Fatigue at Wheel-Rail Interface
Creators: name: Teklebrhan Abebe
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: The general objective of this thesis is to analyze effect of change of radiuses curvature of Rail profile on contact fatigue stress using analytic and finite element software’s. The formulation in this study aims primarily at determination of stresses and fatigue parameters by varying contact area arising from variation in radiuses curvature of Rail profile. A change in radiuses curvature of Rail profile brings in a change in contact area and stresses. The theoretical models are based on the normal problem (Hertz theory) correspondingly, variations in the results in terms of principal stresses and fatigue parameters such as equivalent stresses, fatigue damage, and expected fatigue life with changes in radiuses curvature of Rail profile are obtained. Comparisons of different radiuses curvature of Rail profile are taken place. Better radiuses curvature of Rail profile is suggested. Results obtained are expected to help understand the rail wheel configuration dependence on the stress deformation pattern and fatigue parameters. This may help an appropriate selection of radiuses curvature of Rail profile in the optimization process

description: In this work we use self-consistent method considering a two dimensional electron gas system in the integer quantum Hall regime, to calculate the temperature induced decay of incompressible stripes. There are two types of incompressible strips which can form in a Hall bar system by varying the electron density or magnetic field. We observe that the way of collapse of incompressible strips strongly depends on the type of them. With increasing temperature a bulk incompressible strip will decay from the middle and separate into two edge channels by a density ramp, while an incompressible edge channel reduces its size from both sides until vanishes.

description: The generation and the characterization of multipartite entangled light is an important and challenging task in quantum optics. In this paper the entanglement properties of the light emitted from a planar semiconductor microcavity are studied. The intracavity scattering dynamics leads to the emission of light that is described by a fourpartite W state. Its multipartite correlations are identified by using the method of entanglement witnesses. Entanglement conditions are derived, which are based on a general witness constructed from W states. The results can be used to detect entanglement of light that propagates through lossy and even turbulent media.

description: The exploitation of high-capacity conversion-type materials such as sulfur in solid-state secondary batteries is a dream combination for achieving improved battery safety and high energy density in the push toward a sustainable future. However, the exact reason behind the low rate-capability, bottlenecking further development of solid-state lithium–sulfur batteries, has not yet been determined. Here, using neutron imaging, the spatial distribution of lithium during cell operation is directly visualized and it is shown that sluggish macroscopic ion transport within the composite cathode is rate-limiting. Observing a reaction front propagating from the separator side toward the current collector confirms the detrimental influence of a low effective ionic conductivity. Furthermore, irreversibly concentrated lithium in the vicinity of the current collector, revealed via state-of-charge-dependent tomography, highlights a hitherto-overlooked loss mechanism triggered by sluggish effective ionic transport within a composite cathode. This discovery can be a cornerstone for future research on solid-state batteries, irrespective of the type of active material.

description: Material map (Figure 2)
description: CERN-LHC. Many extensions of the Standard Model posit the existence of heavy particles with long lifetimes. This article presents the results of a search for events containing at least one long-lived particle that decays at a significant distance from its production point into two leptons or into five or more charged particles. This analysis uses a data sample of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ collected in 2012 by the ATLAS detector operating at the Large Hadron Collider. No events are observed in any of the signal regions, and limits are set on model parameters within supersymmetric scenarios involving R-parity violation, split supersymmetry, and gauge mediation. In some of the search channels, the trigger and search strategy are based only on the decay products of individual long-lived particles, irrespective of the rest of the event. In these cases, the provided limits can easily be reinterpreted in different scenarios.

description: As of December 1977, 10 States had enacted legislation restricting corporate farming (farm operations, vertical integration, and ownership of farmland). The statutes’ main intent was to protect the family farmer from competition by large agribusiness firms. Those statutes are described and their effectiveness analyzed. The available data on corporate farming operations, from the census of agriculture and the Internal Revenue Service, suggest that the State statutes may be premature; corporate farms with more than 10 shareholders account for only 5 percent of total U.S. agricultural sales. Thus, some States concerned with the encroachment of corporate farming are considering enactment of reporting laws to collect more specific information.
Critical Casimir Forces for Films with Bulk Ordering Fields

description: The confinement of long-ranged critical fluctuations in the vicinity of second-order phase transitions in fluids generates critical Casimir forces acting on confining surfaces or among particles immersed in a critical solvent. This is realized in binary liquid mixtures close to their consolute point $T_{c}$ which belong to the universality class of the Ising model. The deviation of the difference of the chemical potentials of the two species of the mixture from its value at criticality corresponds to the bulk magnetic filed of the Ising model. By using Monte Carlo simulations for this latter representative of the corresponding universality class we compute the critical Casimir force as a function of the bulk ordering field at the critical temperature $T=T_{c}$. We use a coupling parameter scheme for the computation of the underlying free energy differences and an energy-magnetization integration method for computing the bulk free energy density which is a necessary ingredient. By taking into account finite-size corrections, for various types of boundary conditions we determine the universal Casimir force scaling function as a function of the scaling variable associated with the bulk field. Our numerical data are compared with analytic results obtained from mean-field theory.

description: Drug target identification is of significant commercial interest to pharmaceutical companies, and there is a vast amount of research done related to the topic of therapeutic target identification. Interdisciplinary research in this area involves both the biological network community and the graph algorithms community. Key steps of a typical therapeutic target identification problem include synthesizing or inferring the complex network of interactions relevant to the disease, connecting this network to the disease-specific behavior, and predicting which components are key mediators of the behavior. All of these steps involve graph theoretical or graph algorithmic aspects. In this perspective, we provide modelling and algorithmic perspectives for therapeutic target identification and highlight a number of algorithmic advances, which have gotten relatively little attention so far, with the hope of strengthening the ties between these two research communities.

description: Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) have enhanced automotive safety by reducing driver errors andpreventing accidents. This study analyzes the impact of ADAS on road safety using real-world accident data from the United States.The research aims to identify factors influencing injury severity in ADAS-equipped vehicles and evaluate ADAS effectiveness inreducing accidents. A comprehensive dataset involving ADAS, Automated Driving Systems (ADS), and non-automated vehicles isanalyzed using a Random Forest Classifier machine learning approach. Key factors identified include mileage, incident month, andpre-crash speed, which significantly influence injury severity. The model's reliability was ensured through cross-validation, andlogistic regression was used to assess the impact of different ADAS features. Results show that higher mileage correlates withincreased injury severity, potentially due to ADAS performance degradation over time. Temporal factors like the month of theincident, influenced by seasonal weather and traffic, also impact ADAS effectiveness. Pre-crash speed is a crucial factor,highlighting the need for better speed management through ADAS. The study faced challenges in predicting severe injury cases dueto data imbalance. These findings underscore the need for regular updates and maintenance of ADAS technologies and enhanceddata collection on severe accidents. As ADAS adoption increases, collaboration among automakers, policymakers, and researchersis essential to ensure these technologies effectively reduce road accidents and save lives

description: Service Function Chaining (SFC) processes the traffic of services through an ordered list of Service Functions (SFs). Current SFC model is based on two emerging technologies; Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualisation (NFV) that provide fast and cost efficient deployment and removal of SFC in 5G Networks. The SFs may be overloaded during runtime, resulting in congestion or dropping of packets that consequently affects the QoS performance of real-time services such as Voice over IP (VoIP). This paper investigates the feasibility of our scalable SFC orchestration framework in meeting the QoS requirements of VoIP users in 5G mobile networks. The results show that our framework provides an enhancement in the overall network QoS performance without wasting the infrastructure resources.

description: The Lick planet search program began in 1987 when the first spectrum of $τ$ Ceti was taken with an iodine cell and the Hamilton Spectrograph. Upgrades to the instrument improved the Doppler precision from about 10 m/s in 1992 to about 3 m/s in 1995. The project detected dozens of exoplanets with orbital periods ranging from a few days to several years. The Lick survey identified the first planet in an eccentric orbit (70 Virginis) and the first multi-planet system around a normal main sequence star (Upsilon Andromedae). These discoveries advanced our understanding of planet formation and orbital migration. Data from this project helped to quantify a correlation between host star metallicity and the occurrence rate of gas giant planets. The program also served as a test bed for innovation with testing of a tip-tilt system at the coud{é} focus and fiber scrambler designs to stabilize illumination of the spectrometer optics. The Lick planet search with the Hamilton spectrograph effectively ended when a heater malfunction compromised the integrity of the iodine cell. Here, we present more than 14,000 velocities for 386 stars that were surveyed between 1987 and 2011.
