Collective dynamics of random Janus oscillator networks
(AMER PHYSICAL SOC, 2020)
Janus oscillators have been recently introduced as a remarkably simple phase oscillator model that exhibits nontrivial dynamical patterns-such as chimeras, explosive transitions, and asymmetry-induced synchronization-that ...
How organizational and geographic complexity influence performance: Evidence from European banks
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
We empirically investigate how bank internationalization, organizational complexity, and geographical complexity stemming from foreign-affiliate type and geographic dispersion affect parent bank stability and profitability. ...
Semantic and syntactic interoperability for agricultural open-data platforms in the context of IoT using crop-specific trait ontologies
(MDPI AG, 2020)
In recent years, Internet-of-Things (IoT)-based applications have been used in various domains such as health, industry and agriculture. Considerable amounts of data in diverse formats are collected from wireless sensor ...
Financial inclusion and bank stability: evidence from Europe
(Routledge Journals, 2020)
The Great Recession of 2007-2009 piqued the interest of policymakers worldwide, prompting various initiatives to stabilize the financial system and advance financial inclusion. However, few studies have considered their ...
Rediscovering Goethe's Concept of Polarity: A New Direction For Architectural Morphogenesis
(Middle East Technical University, 2020)
This paper will introduce Goethe's concept of polarity to discuss its theoretical and computational implications on natural and architectural morphogenesis (1). Polarity, as a dualist principle, is found in most of Goethe's ...
Affective Modulation of Working Memory Maintenance: The Role of Positive and Negative Emotions
(UNIV ECONOMICS, 2021-05)
The present study investigated the impact of task-irrelevant emotional images on the retention of information in spatial working memory (WM). Two experiments employed a delayed matching-to-sample task where participants ...
Nodal Sensitivity-Based Smart Inverter Control for Voltage Regulation in Distribution Feeder
(IEEE Electron Devices Society, 2021)
Overvoltage is one of the issues in distribution grids with high penetration of photovoltaics (PVs). Centralized or droop-based methods of active power curtailment (APC) and/or reactive power control of PVs are viable ...
Facial Masculinity Increases Perceptions of Men's Age, But Not Perceptions of Their Health: Data From an Arab Sample
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-06)
Masculine characteristics in men's faces are often assumed to function as health cues. However, evidence for this assumption from empirical tests is mixed. For example, research on Western women's face perceptions found ...
Forecasting Models For Daily Natural Gas Consumption Considering Periodic Variations And Demand Segregation
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020)
Due to expensive infrastructure and the difficulties in storage, supply conditions of natural gas are different from those of other traditional energy sources like petroleum or coal. To overcome these challenges, supplier ...
On the Time Shift Phenomena in Epidemic Models
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2020)
In the standard Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR) and Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR) models, the peak of infected individuals coincides with the inflection point of removed individuals. Nevertheless, a survey ...
