Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccept and Apply Diversity? An Exploratory Study of the Attitudes towards Diversity of Students of STEM SubjectsPetia Genkova, Henrik SchreiberGerman universities are obligated to guarantee a fair learning-environment for students with diverse features. They also must prepare students for a highly diverse working environment. This means to develop awareness for diversity and to train intercultural competence. The present study takes an exploratory look at the extent to which diversity awareness is established among Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2021 · 7,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVehicle-Fixed-Frame Adaptive Controller and Intrinsic Nonlinear PID Controller for Attitude Stabilization of a Complex-Shaped Underwater VehicleChanaka Thushitha Bandara, Lakmali Nadeesha Kumari, Sanjeeva Maithripala, Asanga RatnaweeraIn this study we present attitude stabilization using a vehicle-fixed-frame adaptive controller and an intrinsic nonlinear PID controller for a low-speed Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV), of complex shape. Controlling an AUV poses a huge challenge because of the non-linearity, time variance and unpredictable external disturbance, as well as because its dynamics and hydrodynamic parameters are difficult to identify due to … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 7 Dec 2020 · 6,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Assessment of the English Grammar Asynchronous Online Learning Module before Being Applied in Real LessonAnthony Anggrawan, Christofer SatriaCurrently the orientation of higher education in Indonesia has shifted to online-based education. Unfortunately not all universities are ready to implement asynchronous online teaching. The question is whether the developed asynchronous online teaching module can meet the desired quality qualifications. Therefore the objective of this study is to conduct an assessment of the asynchronous online learning module before it is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 11 · 7 Nov 2020 · 7,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuickest Multi-Commodity Flow Over Time with Partial Lane ReversalsTanka Nath Dhamala, Shiva Prakash Gupta, Durga Prasad Khanal, Urmila PyakurelRouting of more than one different commodity from specific origin nodes to the corresponding destination nodes through the arcs of an underlying network respecting the capacity constraints is one of the main problems in operational research. Among them, the quickest multi-commodity flow problem concerns with minimization of time taken to complete this process. The general multi-commodity and quickest multi-commodity flow … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 2 Oct 2020 · 7,311 accessesView PDFCite

Records of patients from the Specialized Center for Infectious-Parasitic Diseases (CEDIP, Cascavel) were analyzed between 2010-2014 and clinical files of patients affected by some manifestation … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2019 · 7,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransformable Curved Thin Glass GreenhouseLaura GaluppiThe use of new generation thin, lightweight and damage-resistant glass, originally conceived for electronic displays, is being very recently proposed for structural applications, in particular for adaptive and movable skins and façades. This paper explores this concept and presents a study on the structural use of thin glass in greenhouses for protected agriculture, based on the use of cold-twisted elements … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 1 Dec 2018 · 6,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHousing Pregnant Sows in Turnaround Stalls During Gestation Impacts Behavior, Immune and Well-BeingAshley DeDecker, Michael Mandru, Janeen L. Salak-JohnsonThis study aimed to determine the effects of housing gestating multiparous sows in alternative turn-around stalls on selective measures of well-being. Sows were randomly assigned to either a Turn-Around Stall (TAS) or standard Straight Stall (STS) from gestational day 6 until 110. Behavior was registered on days 6, 30, 45, 65, 90 and 110 of gestation and immune and cortisol … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 14 Nov 2018 · 7,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPedestrian Recognition Based on Multi-Scale Weighted HOGMonther Hussein Al-BsoolPedestrian recognition receives a great attention in recent years due to its importance in traffic accidents identification. Traffic surveillance systems can provide valuable information for pedestrian recognition using computer vision and image processing techniques. Most techniques exploit simple feature extraction and multi-stage feature matching to train classifiers. In this study, Canny edge information and Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) has … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 11 · 7 Nov 2018 · 7,161 accessesView PDFCite
