A Transformer Fault Diagnosis Method Based On Multiscale 1dcnn, Huidong Wang, Haiyan Yao, Qiang Guo, Xiaoling Yu, Xufeng Zhang, Longkun Cong

Journal of Electric Power Science and Technology

In order to improve the diagnostic accuracy of transformer fault, a transformer fault diagnosis method based on the multi‑scale convolutional neural network model is proposed. Firstly, two multi‑scale convolutional modules are designed on the basis of the 1DCNN structure, and the overall structure of the transformer fault identification model is constructed. Secondly, to handle the problem of less sample features, the feature expansion method based on the ratio method is adopted to enhance the sample features from 5 dimensions to 25 dimensions. To solve the small sample size of faults and uneven distribution of sample numbers between faults, a sample …

The Psychological Motivations Of Attendees To Engage And Share Their Event Experiences, Denise Matoushek

Theses

Social media usage, content creation and consumption has increased steadily throughout the years. This facet has impacted the event industry and their audiences’ expectations of immersive and high-end digital opportunities with the goal of memory capturing and user generated content. In addition to providing digital event opportunities, meeting audiences on their psychological level when in attendance at events heightens the likelihood of revisits, word-of-mouth, and social media sharing. The two main psychological aspects to study are that of belonging and internal motivation. In the event field, belonging is the feeling or association to a community of peers and internal motivation …

Cfa-Treated Mice Induce Hyperalgesia In Healthy Mice Via An Olfactory Mechanism, Yangmiao Zhang, Wentai Luo, Maryt M. Heinricher, Andrey E. Ryabinin

Chemistry Faculty Publications and Presentations

Background

Social interactions with subjects experiencing pain can increase nociceptive sensitivity in observers, even without direct physical contact. In previous experiments, extended indirect exposure to soiled bedding from mice with alcohol withdrawal-related hyperalgesia enhanced nociception in their conspecifics. This finding suggested that olfactory cues could be sufficient for nociceptive hypersensitivity in otherwise untreated animals (also known as “bystanders”).

Aim

The current study addressed this possibility using an inflammation-based hyperalgesia model and long- and short-term exposure paradigms in C57BL/6J mice.

Materials & Method

Adult male and female mice received intraplantar injection of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) and were used as stimulus …

Divulging Two Decades Of Multimedia Applications In Biology Education, Khairul Hafezad Abdullah

Jurnal Inovasi Pendidikan IPA

Biology is an indispensable component of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) education. Accordingly, effective biology teaching necessitates multimedia to assist students in fathoming complex scientific themes. This study aims to scrutinise the bibliometrics of preceding publications on multimedia applications in biology education from the Scopus and Web of Science databases. This study explores descriptive publishing patterns and the emergence of academic discourse about multimedia applications in biology education using ScientoPy and VOSviewer. The results reveal publications on this topic have been volatile, with less than ten publications in both databases. The United States has bested others as the most …

Political Commentary In Visual Communication: Kosovo-Serbia Relation, Delfina Ertanowska

UBT International Conference

Political commentary is usually associated with a lively discussion of experts in a TV studio, radio program or in the form of an article and opinion in a newspaper. However, it also appears in visual form in the form of a cartoon, meme or comic book, e.g. Countryball. The peculiarity of the visual form of commenting on the political situation is its versatility, where the recipient can also be the sender of information. Many cartoonist specialize in their chosen form, political or social, and comment on this field. They are professional political experts, but their tool is visual art, not …

Stimulating Decision-Making Through Design And Advertising, Dardan Luta

UBT International Conference

The improvement of technology has made it possible for the masses to have easy access to graphic software, therefore even the products/advertisements of a category become very similar to each other and the design becomes a decisive element that makes this difference. To differentiate between products, each brand tries to create its own visual language and aims to give a message to the consumer about its identity.

Since advertising is such an important aspect of a brand, can consumer perceptions be stimulated or manipulated through graphic design? We will focus in the advertisements that companies in Kosovo have used for …

Information Design, Ux, Ui, And Marketing Design Qr Code, Arberesha Hoxha

UBT International Conference

The practice of displaying data in an understandable, useful, and accessible way is known as information design. The current term for a branch of graphic design focused on information delivery is information design. Data visualization, communication design, and information architecture are all closely related to information design. Technical communicators and graphic artists, for example, who are particularly engaged in diagramming and presenting quantitative data, use the phrase "information graphics". Information design, as used in technical communication, is the act of creating an information structure with a particular audience in mind. This means choosing material and organizing it into several guides …

The subject of my final creative project is a short story about my dream of becoming an artist and realizing that good deeds are the brush strokes of God’s masterpiece. My earliest memories as a child are about the simple joy of drawing and coloring people, places and things from my imagination. I always enjoyed making gifts of my artwork. Serving others is an early calling.
