The migration from the traditional teaching method to online learning has affected both learners and educators at all levels. In Kuwait, this switch is implemented during three semesters. paper, we examine challenges that Teachers of English Language face today in Kuwait Post COVID-19. After temporary on-learning lasted semesters, current study investigates impact language skills on school lear...

Deep neural networks continue to advance the state-of-the-art of image recognition tasks with various methods. However, applications of these methods to multimodality remain limited. We present Multimodal Residual Networks (MRN) for the multimodal residual learning of visual question-answering, which extends the idea of the deep residual learning. Unlike the deep residual learning, MRN effectiv...

In 1948 roof falls were the number one killer of coal miners in America. While the Bureau of Mines had been formed in 1910 to improve coalmine safety, it had largely focused on explosions, for which technological solutions appeared to exist. Roof falls, by contrast, were not amenable to a technical fix. Beginning in 1948, however, the Bureau discovered roof bolting, which it promoted as a safer...

When scientists publish articles in journals like NATURE they describe specific results of their work gained from numerous experiments and detailed scientific research. They have recognized rules that can be used for describing nature, for example, various aspects of our physical and biological world. By contrast, scientific work within the humanities means ‘Arbeit am Begriff ’ (formation of co...

1. A set of S real numbers which has inner measure m*(S) different from its outer measure m*iS) is non-measurable. An extreme form, which we shall call saturated non-measurability, occurs when ra*(S)=0 but m*iSM)=miM) for every measurable set M, miM) denoting the measure of M. This is equivalent to: both S and its complement have zero inner measure. More generally, if a fixed set B of positive ...

The Deep Space Terminal (DS-T) was a task that validated the concept of a fully automated, autonomous deep-space ground station. The DS-T successfully demonstrated “lights out”-mode ground-station operations using a Deep Space Network 34-meter beam-waveguide antenna that tracked a NASA deep-space probe orbiting Mars. The DS-T receives, processes, records, and distributes telemetry data to the p...

The present research is concerned with the determination of ductility, over-strength and response modification factors of coupled steel shear wall frames. Three structural models with various numbers of stories, bay width and coupling beam height were analyzed using static pushover and incremental nonlinear dynamic analyses. The ductility, over-strength and response modification factors for the...

ABSTRACT: Several reinforced concrete deep beams with different L/D ratios (1.5, 1.6, 1.71) were cast and tested in order to investigate the strain distribution pattern at mid-section of the beam. This paper describes analysis of deep beams subjected to two point loading with three different L/D ratios (1.5, 1.6, 1.71) using Non-linear Finite element method (ANSYS 9.0 software). In ANSYS 9.0 so...
