The effect of element interactivity and mental rehearsal on working memory resource depletion and the spacing effect (2024)
Journal Article

The spacing effect occurs when learning with rest periods is superior to learning without rest periods. Cognitive load theory has explained this superiority by working memory resource depletion, under which resources are depleted during cognitive act...

Asynchronous learning-based output feedback sliding mode control for semi-Markov jump systems: a descriptor approach (2024)
Journal Article

This paper presents an asynchronous output-feedback control strategy of semi-Markovian systems via sliding mode-based learning technique. Compare with most literature results that require exact prior knowledge of system state and mode information, an...

A general approach to assessing SHM reliability considering sensor failures based on information theory (2024)
Journal Article

Structural health monitoring systems (SHM) involve implementing damage identification strategies to determine the health state of structures. However, it is important to pay close attention to the system degradation, especially the effect of sensor d...

Unravelling long-term impact of water abstraction and climate change on endorheic lakes: A case study of Shortandy Lake in Central Asia (2024)
Journal Article

Endorheic lakes, lacking river outflows, are highly sensitive to environmental changes and human interventions. Central Asia (CA) has over 6000 lakes that have experienced substantial water level variability in the past century, yet causes of recent...

Evaluation of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on a smoking cessation service in Derbyshire: An interrupted time series analysis (2024)
Journal Article

Background Data published early in the COVID-19 pandemic suggested that smokers infected with SARS-CoV-2 were more likely to need hospital treatment or die than non-smokers, and thus this was seen as a motivator to encourage smokers to make a quit a...
