The current time-domain solution methods for the wavefield equations of a single medium do not apply to the wavefield equations of shallow water seismic with a fluid?elastomer coupling. To solve this problem, based on the explicit central difference meth...

The local independence assumption is crucial for the consistent estimation of item parameters in item response theory models. This article explores a pairwise likelihood estimation approach for the two-parameter logistic (2PL) model that treats the local...

Data-driven simulations are gaining popularity in mechanics of biomaterials since they do not require explicit form of constitutive relations. Data-driven modeling based on neural networks lacks interpretability. In this study, we propose an interpretabl...

Feedback is a critical aspect of optimised learning design, but there are few, if any, feedback models that map different types of feedback and how they may assist students to increase performance and enhance their learning experience. This research pape...
