In the present study, the effect of an undulated bottom topography on the Jigsaw Puzzle radiation of water waves by a floating rectangular buoy is analyzed.Various physical quantities of interest such as the added mass and damping coefficients associated with the surge, heave, and pitch motions are analyzed for a variety of parameters associated wi
Self-exposed nudity on the net: displacements of obscenity and beauty?
This article focuses on images of nude female bodies that circulate today within the media, and on the internet in particular.Prime attention is given to the images that women publish as self portraits.From Jigsaw Puzzle a genealogical perspective, we examine the politicization involved in a new set of practices, diverse but recent, and how they im
Premature Infants Have Normal Maturation of the T Cell Receptor Repertoire at Term
Premature infants are known to have immature immune systems compared to term infants; however, the impacts of ex utero immune development are not well characterized.Our previous retrospective clinical review showed prolonged T cell lymphopenia in a subset of extremely premature infants, suggesting that they may have lasting abnormalities in their T
Speech Emotion Recognition Using Clustering Based GA-Optimized Feature Set
Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) is a hot topic in academia and industry.Feature engineering plays a pivotal role in building an efficient SER.Although researchers have done a tremendous amount of work in this field, there are still the issues of speech feature choice and the correct application of feature engineering that remains to be solved in t
Methods for implementing integrated step-selection functions with incomplete data
Abstract Integrated step-selection analyses (iSSAs) are versatile and powerful frameworks for studying habitat and movement preferences of tracked animals.iSSAs utilize integrated step-selection Cleaning Disc functions (iSSFs) to model movements in discrete time, and thus, require animal location data that are regularly spaced in time.However, many
