Creativity is a term that has proven difficult to define. The field of English language teaching (ELT) especially struggles with this concept, often treating it as an axiom eludes clear definition or notion everyone implicit understanding of. In other pieces research, creativity equated divergent thinking evidenced and measured by performance on different standardized tests. contrast these view...

This paper investigates the issue of determining dimensions row and column factor spaces in matrix-valued data. Exploiting eigen-gap spectrum sample second moment matrices data, we propose a family randomised tests to check whether one-way or two-way structure exists not. Our do not require any arbitrary thresholding on eigenvalues, can be applied with (virtually) no restrictions relative rate ...

In this research, using the Modified Compression Field Theory (MCFT), a new truss based model is proposed to predict the behavior of reinforced concrete coupling beams with diagonal reinforcement. The model is able to consider the effects of shear and axial forces and bending moment, simultaneously. The proposed model includes a nonlinear shear spring, an axial spring, two inclined truss member...

In this paper, we present a novel method to couple Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) and nonlinear FEM to animate the interaction of fluids and deformable solids in real time. To accurately model the coupling, we generate proxy particles over the boundary of deformable solids to facilitate the interaction with fluid particles, and develop an efficient method to distribute the coupling force...

We propose a fully monolithic two-way coupling framework that couples incompressible fluids to reduced deformable bodies. Notably, the resulting linear system matrix is both symmetric and positive-definite. Our method allows for the simulation of interesting free-surface as well as underwater phenomena, enabling the use of reduced deformable bodies as full-fledged simulation primitives alongsid...
