A Bayesian Approach to Competing Risks Model with Masked Causes of Failure and Incomplete Failure Times
( Hindawi Limited , 2020 , Article)We present a Bayesian approach for analysis of competing risks survival data with masked causes of failure. This approach is often used to assess the impact of covariates on the hazard functions when the failure time is ... -
A new megastable chaotic oscillator with singularity
( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2020 , Article)While multistability is known as a hot topic in nonlinear dynamics, two exceptional cases of multistable systems have been investigated less: extreme multistable systems and megastable systems are two newer categories of ... -
A linguistically-driven response categorisation protocol for Arabic nouns and verbs: clinical and research applications
( Taylor and Francis Ltd , 2020 , Article)Research into language breakdown in Arabic has been growing in the last two decades. The field, however, remains challenged by the lack of assessment materials, normative databases, and standards for categorising responses ... -
A fractional-order model for the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak
( Springer , 2020 , Article)The outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which was firstly reported in China, has affected many countries worldwide. To understand and predict the transmission dynamics of this disease, mathematical models can be ... -
Ælfric, Boulogne-Sur-Mer 63, and the Institutio Canonicorum Aquisgranensis Get access Arrow
( Oxford University Press , 2020 , Article Review)The first part of Boulogne-sur-Mer, Biblothèque municipale, MS 63 (fols. 1–34), has long been associated with Ælfric of Eynsham. In Enid Raynes’s examination of the manuscript, she finds a ‘high proportion’ of the texts ... -
A novel secure occupancy monitoring scheme based on multi-chaos mapping
( MDPI , 2020 , Article)Smart building control, managing queues for instant points of service, security systems, and customer support can benefit from the number of occupants information known as occupancy. Due to interrupted real-time continuous ... -
A Power Associative Loop Structure for the Construction of Non-Linear Components of Block Cipher
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2020 , Article)In the symmetric key cryptography, the purpose of the substitution box is to generate confusion and hence improve the security of the whole cryptosystem. For this reason, many algebraic substitution boxes are constructed ... -
A new Tikhonov-TV regularization for optical flow computation
( SPIE , 2020 , Conference)Tikhonov regularization and total variation (TV) are two famous smoothing techniques used in variational image processing problems and in particular for optical flow computation. We consider a new method that combines these ... -
5,5-Diphenyl-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one methodological mechanism to corrosion inhibition for mild steel dissolution in hcl: Dfts, molecular dynamics and experimental procedures
( World Scientific , 2020 , Article)Continuing to study the inhibition of corrosion, 5,5-diphenyl-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one (PTI) has been tested as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel (MS) in an aggressive 1 M HCl solution by chemical and electrochemical ... -
An experimental-coupled empirical investigation on the corrosion inhibitory action of 7-alkyl-8-Hydroxyquinolines on C35E steel in HCl electrolyte
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article)Two 8-Hydroxyquinoline-based piperazine, 7-((4-(4-chloro phenyl)piperazin-1-yl) methyl) quinolin-8-ol (CPQ) and 7-((4-methyl piperazin-1-yl) methyl)quinolin-8-ol (MPQ) were prepared, identified and investigated as corrosion ... -
Ultrasmall Metal-Doped CeO2Nanoparticles for Low-Temperature CO Oxidation
( American Chemical Society , 2020 , Article)Ultrasmall ceria (CeO2) and metal-doped CeO2 nanoparticles in the sub-3 nm size regime were synthesized via a facile, single-step, liquid-phase thermal decomposition reaction in a monosurfactant medium, which plays the ... -
