We're often told it is "unscientific" or "meaningless" to ask what happened before the Big Bang. But a new paper by FQxI cosmologist Eugene Lim, of King's College London, UK, and astrophysicists Katy ...

Abstract: In this paper, a predefined-time convergent proximal dynamics model (PDM) is proposed to address equilibrium problems (EPs). Firstly, two improved predefined-time convergence criterion of ...

This method is suitable for the determination of the ignitability of solids. This method can be used to evaluate hazardous materials prior to disposal. We have a mold for these dimensions if the ...

A new JavaScript obfuscation method utilizing invisible Unicode characters to represent binary values is being actively abused in phishing attacks targeting affiliates of an American political action ...

The elemental imaging of laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) provides spatial information on elements and therefore can further investigate the growth or evolution ...

Hydraulic fracturing is one of the most important technologies for shale gas production. Complex hydraulic fracture networks can be stimulated in shale reservoirs due to the existence of numerous ...

This important work presents a novel approach to infer causal relations in non-stationary time series data. To do so, the authors introduce a novel machine-learning model of Temporal Autoencoders for ...

A new study reveals the surprisingly convergent evolution in the inner ear of mammals. An international research team showed that a group of highly divergent mammals known as Afrotheria and distantly ...

Euler Method: The simplest numerical method for solving ODEs, which uses the derivative to project forward. [ y_{n+1} = y_n + h \cdot f(x_n, y_n) ] Heun's Method (Improved Euler Method): A two-step ...
