The talk describes how the ALPACA and ALPACA Plus Joint Industry projects, led by Imperial College London and Oxford University ran from 2017 to 2022 to investigate the behaviour of piles driven in chalk, a very weak limestone.

Our findings highlight the heterogeneous response of households to the Brexit vote, offering a potential explanation for why many economists' pessimistic forecasts regarding Brexit’s short- and medium-term economic con sequences have not fully materialized.

The report will explore how phenomenology can be most effectively applied and which topics are most worthy of phenomenological intervention.

This paper presents an argument to the conclusion that machines can acquire human mindedness, that is, they can be intelligent, conscious, sentient, etc.

Viviparity is widespread among animals, with many species nurturing their offspring in the uterus via a placenta. This process requires adaptive modifications to ensure the embryo’s development within the mother.

In this talk, I take a novel approach by shifting focus from the informativeness of agreement among expert testimonies to the informativeness of the entire experiment of consulting experts.

I will present some recent advances on using the scalar auxiliary variable (SAV) approach and Lagrange multiplier approach to develop highly efficient and accurate structure preserving schemes for a large class of complex nonlinear systems.

This report will use case studies to illustrate how heritage management requires greater creativity and innovation, even though certain approaches remain controversial.

This lecture will examine the role of crisis in global governance, its evolving concept and impact on IR scholarship. It will address the ambiguity of the crisis concept, seen in terms like “permacrisis” and “polycrisis,” and its use in various contexts such as financial instability and climate change.

Edwin Leeansyah is an Associate Professor at Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School (SIGS), Tsinghua University. Dr. Leeansyah'sresearch group seeks to understand the roles of MAIT cells in infection and immunity within barrier tissues, particularly within the gut. His group developedthree-dimensional human intestinal organoid technology to test hypotheses regarding mucosal T cell tissue residency and their roles in gastrointestinal infection, inflammation, and immunity.His

In this talk, we will survey a development in the last decade in investigating collapsed manifolds of Ricci curvature bounded below and universal covering of every unit ball in M is not collapsed.

In this talk, I will point to the passive generation of an enactive intersubjective loop as the condition that makes DSP possible, and argue that this level diverges from the level of active reasoning when interacting with AI.

This tutorial explores cutting-edge ML applications in OPF, including active constraint identification, solver strategy learning, and cross-domain optimization generalization.Future directions for enhancing computational efficiency and robustness under increasing renewable energy uncertainty are also discussed.

The talk titled “The Continuity of Exhibit-Design in the Castelvecchio Museum, (or in the City Museums) in Verona-Italy” explores the results of these experimental projects. Each site-specific art installation, despite its unique character, is conceived through the lens of Scarpa's design language, achieving a new balance between space, objects and innovative display solutions.

Given a semisimple real linear group, a zonal spherical function is matrix coefficient associated to the unique spherical vector with value 1 at identity element in a unitary spherical principal series, which are important object in representation theory and harminic analysis.

The report will also introduce specific applications of robotic intelligence in surgical subtasks and discuss future trends in AI + robotics technology.

The roles and physical attributes of cytonemes have fascinating implications for the way sianaling proteins disperse across tissues to elicit specific responses in both normal development and disease contexts.
