Efficient Crystal Plasticity Modeling of Lath Martensite Considering Block Boundary Effects

An efficient extension of conventional rate-dependent crystal plasticity is formulated to include the influence of block boundaries in lath martensite. It is shown that this can be achieved by minor modifications to a conventional crystal plasticity model, providing an efficient modeling approach with a negligible additional computational cost. With this modification, the parameter related to latt

Anomaly detection on edge networks

Network anomaly detection is an active research area, with numerous solutions that utilize statistical methods, neural networks, and other machine learning methods. Autoencoders, in particular, have shown great performance by learning representations solely from benign traffic, enabling the detection of zero-day attacks. In this thesis, we propose a methodology that uses transfer learning to train

KGB with a human face? End of illusions. : Social protests of Soviet workers in Novocherkassk 1962 as an initiator of a change in the character of the KGB

This article analyses the role of the Soviet political police and the KGB state security in suppressing large workers' protests in Novocherkassk in 1962. The aim is not only to study the actions of the KGB during the crisis itself, but above all to show how the events in Novocherkassk contributed to the subsequent change in the overall character of this repressive service and, more generally, the

Overcoming tax barriers to philanthropy and social entrepreneurship.

Tax rules may form an impediment to philanthropic initiatives, including innovative activities such as social entrepreneurship and cross-border initiatives. This chapter analyses three specific tax barriers: barriers to cross-border philanthropy, possible barriers as a result of proposed EU corporate income tax harmonization, and barriers to philanthropy in the form of social entrepreneurship. The

The Influence of Heterogeneity and Confining Pressure on the Hydromechanics of a Sandstone Using Neutron and X-Ray Imaging

This study utilizes advanced 3D imaging techniques, combining X-ray and neutron tomography, to investigate the hydromechanical evolution of Idaho Gray sandstone during coupled triaxial permeability tests. The analysis involved correlating mechanical and hydraulic bulk measurements, porosity fields, strain fields derived from Digital Volume Correlation analysis and fluid speed fields derived from t
