THERMAL SHOCK AND DYNAMIC THERMOELASTICITY by A. Yu. Strigunova, E. M. Kartashov

“…The effect of relaxation in thermal problems was described in the context of the investigation of thermal stress state of a massive body. It was shown that an increase in relaxation time, i.e. heating rates of the boundary surface of the body, causes a reduction of thermal stress maxima. …”

Bayesian network analysis of individual-level factors associated with bullying among high school students by Yanmei Feng, Xinyu Luo, Xinrui Li, Yilin Liu, Yong Zeng

“…Within the directed network analysis, depression severity emerged as a key predictor of relational bullying victimization, while both relational and verbal bullying predicted subsequent physical bullying. In the regularized partial correlation network, core self-evaluation exerted the strongest influence, acting as an indirect mediator in predicting relational and physical bullying victimization by modulating individual depression levels in the directed network. …”
