A new method to directly synthesize single-crystalline CeO2 nanoparticles has been developed. The advantages of the method are rapid synthesis, at normal atmosphere, 100% productive ratio and low cost, with a great potential for scale-up. X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra showed unusual peak width versus particle size, compared with Scherrer equation predictions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM...

Abstract We add the σ -modification and low-frequency learning to model reference adaptive controller (MRAC) (Guduri et al. in SN Appl Sci 3:1–21, 2021) make it robust presence of two simultaneous bounded disturbances maintain consistent mean particles’ temperature velocity collectively called states (MPSs) when they impact substrate be coated. The MPSs affect coating quality. Even though resul...

We consider the optimal sequential irreversible investment policy of a value maximizing firm facing decreasing returns to scale and interest rate uncertainty. We characterize the optimal accumulation policy and its value for a broad class of interest rate models by focusing on the marginal investment decision and deriving the marginal value of capital. We also state a set of conditions under wh...

BACKGROUND National and subnational level surveys are important for monitoring disease burden, prioritizing resource allocation, and evaluating public health policies. As mobile phone access and ownership become more common globally, mobile phone surveys (MPSs) offer an opportunity to supplement traditional public health household surveys. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to systemat...

Abstract We present an algorithm for supervised learning using tensor networks, employing a step of data pre-processing by coarse-graining through sequence wavelet transformations. These transformations are represented as set network layers identical to those in multi-scale entanglement renormalization ansatz network. perform and regression tasks model based on matrix product states (MPSs) acti...

This study examines vocabulary growth in two dimensions, receptive and controlled productive, and the interrelationship between these dimensions. The study focuses on the 2000, 3000, 5000 and academic word list levels. Data were collected from 41 high school students in China. The participants completed a pre-test in the third week of the first semester, and a post-test ten weeks later. The fin...

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To examine the literature related to a large-scale quality improvement initiative, the 'Productive Ward: Releasing Time to Care', providing a bibliometric profile that tracks the level of interest and scale of roll-out and adoption, discussing the implications for sustainability. BACKGROUND Productive Ward: Releasing Time to Care (aka Productive Ward) is probably one of th...
