Active learning techniques nowadays become an essential ingredient in making students acquire the scientific knowledge. This study devoted to evaluate the Revised Bloom Taxonomy (RBT) on students performance measured by two dimensions; cognitive process dimensions and the knowledge dimensions. It has been found that using RBT to be quite instrumental in motivating students to gain knowledge. In the midterm exam, the students showed better performance in the fourth cognitive process dimension [Analyzing] with approximately 86% with respect to the assigned weight through the exam and they registered more score related to the procedural knowledge 84%. However, the analysis of the final exam showed some deterioration in students performance resulted in increasing of the level of difficulties of the subjected taught after the midterm exam as well as the students most likely were busy in the second part of the term with other commitments related to other university activities.

Understanding the effects of the manufacturing characteristics of powder bed fusion with an electron beam (PBF-EB), an additive manufacturing process, on microstructure formation and anisotropy development during solidification is essential to achieve flexible microstructure control. In this study, PBF-EB was employed to fabricate a Co-Cr-Mo alloy and the grain morphology and texture formation with different process parameters were analyzed by experimental characterization with the aid of computational thermal-fluid dynamics simulations. It was found that the epitaxial growth with resulting columnar grain and near-cubic texture tended to be dominant in the solidification process, due to competitive grain growth and the heat flow characteristics in the snake-scanning strategy. However, the molten pool connection between adjacent melt tracks resulted in the random orientation of <001> in the horizontal plane, producing a fiber-like texture. In addition, nucleation and new grain growth rather than extensive epitaxial growth could be achieved by manipulating the molten pool geometry and overlap between adjacent melt tracks. Increasing the slope of the solid/liquid interface of the molten pool and decreasing the remelting fraction of adjacent melt tracks favored the formation of new grains with random orientations to restrict the extensive epitaxial growth of the columnar grains and attenuate the microstructural anisotropy.","PeriodicalId":220342,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science Educator: Courses","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117261648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The New Politics of (Energy) Market Entry","authors":"D. Spence","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.3337957","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3337957","url":null,"abstract":"The modern regulatory state is a creature of 20th century politics, and the New Deal consensus that dominated thinking about the relationship between government regulation and the market for most of that century. That regime exists now in a very different political environment, one in which parties and voters are more ideologically polarized and digitally connected than at any time in the modern regulatory era. This article examines the influence of this new politics on one such 20th century regulatory system -- the regulation of energy market entry -- through the lens of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) that participate in energy infrastructure siting conflicts. The analysis is built around a data set comprising information about more than 400 nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) whose missions include active opposition to one or more of nine different types of energy projects between 2000 and 2017, including various types of fossil fuel infrastructure, renewable energy facilities, and smart grid technology. The focus is on the tactics each NGO uses to oppose energy projects, and the issue arguments advanced by each NGO to oppose those projects. The results are consistent with the notion that ideological polarization and digital communication are affecting the nature of siting conflicts over energy infrastructure. NGOs devote the lion’s share of their efforts not to inside strategies like formal lobbying, but rather to mobilizing the broader public to lobby decision-makers, and organize those mobilization efforts focus overwhelmingly around environmental and health risk issues. This holds true not only for dirty energy projects like coal-fired power plants whose health and environmental risks are well-known; but for clean energy projects like wind farms as well. \u0000 \u0000From NGOs’ point of view, this form of mass mobilization is efficient: digital communication tools enable NGOs to transmit messages almost costlessly, and to target audiences that are particularly receptive to their messaging. NGOs may prefer risk-based appeals because they resonate. We find that local NGOs in particular tend to make more hyperbolic risk claims than national NGOs. If local NGOs need to build a broader base of support for their cause in order to improve the probability of victory, this approach is rational. The article explores some of the implications of this increasingly fraught regulatory environment. To be sure, the regulatory process grants agencies plenty of autonomy, and regulators continue to be responsible for balancing energy security, affordability and environmental performance concerns in making siting decisions. However, the new politics of energy market entry holds out the possibility that the use of sophisticated digital communication tools to exploit risk perception biases (to more effectively amplify perceived risk) could slow efforts to green the energy supply and produce siting decisions that have other economically and environmentally counterpro","PeriodicalId":220342,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science Educator: Courses","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133548319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To tackle this problem, operators use a fleet of vehicles to redistribute bikes across the network. We propose a model that captures successful user trips in the system, and a new mixed integer programming formulation that solves the dynamic redistribution problem by producing routes and pick-up/drop-off decisions for the vehicles. In order to scale to large instances, we develop a decomposition method based on proper station grouping, accompanied by an optimization with partial information approach, where relevant information for each group (routing and redistribution options) is modeled using piecewise linear concave functions and explicitly included in the model. We test our methods on both synthetic and real-world data, and show that our algorithms can scale to large real-world systems, with short running times that allow for real-time information to be taken into account. Furthermore, since accurate estimation of user demand is essential for efficient redistribution, we also develop data-driven and optimization-based approaches to consider lost and shifted demand. Our methods are general and not tied to the specific application domain; for instance, the optimization with partial information can be applied to any pick-up and delivery vehicle routing problem.<br>","PeriodicalId":220342,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science Educator: Courses","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128863807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A huge number of computations with such matrices are performed by these methods, like clustering, latent semantic indexing.

To save the space in memory or disk, efficient storage of elements and their retrieval is required. This paper explains two types of 3D sparse matrices known as lower triangular and upper triangular.
