The construction of the NICA accelerator facility is underway at Joint Institute for Nuclear Research (JINR) (Dubna, Russia). The main goal of the MPD experiment at NICA will be the experimental exploration of the Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) phase structure at high baryon density. In this article, the current status of the NICA/MPD project is presented.

After the 2005 M7.6 Kashmir earthquake (Pakistan), field observations reported that several buildings manufactured with traditional techniques well resisted to this strong seismic event. Nonetheless, these techniques have never been deeply studied from a structural engineering point of view yet. This thesis reports a full analytical study on the static and seismic behavior of simple one-storey buildings made with a typical construction technique commonly named as “Bhatar” system, used for several centuries and widely diffused in rather remote areas of the Himalayan regions like India, Nepal and Pakistan. The Bhatar system consists of load-bearing walls made of common dry-stacked rubble stone masonry held together by horizontal wooden bands disposed at several levels (spaced at intervals of about 60 cm). It is widely adopted in developing countries due to its advantages from both economical and constructive point of view with respect to the conventional constructions techniques (i.e. brick masonry and concrete structures). In the present work, analytical analyses are conducted with reference to a one-storey building modulus characterized by a 3.6 m x 3.6 m square plan covered by an heavy wooden roof with 20 cm thick earth coverage, in order to investigate its response under both gravity and seismic inertial loadings. In detail, in-plane and out-of-plane response of a single wall under horizontal actions is discussed and particular attention is focused on the connections between the timber elements, which are fundamental for the transmission of the horizontal actions and for preventing overturning and other failure mechanisms. The main aim is twofold: (i) to provide a first insight into the actual seismic response of such construction technique, as a basis for the specific design of ad-hoc laboratory tests on full-scale models, and (ii) to give some rules of thumb for a proper dimensioning and construction of this kind of structures.

碩士<br>康寧大學<br>休閒管理研究所<br>107<br>With the take-off of Taiwan’s economy Beauty services industry technology services are developing very fast and mature The theme of service companies that use male hot wax hair removal is less This study is aimed at consumers of the Baron aesthetics in Kaohsiung City. 400 people surveyed The study found that the consumer motivation scale and satisfaction scale for male hot wax hair removal salon customersQuestionnaire scores are moderately high, showing customers' motivation and satisfaction Quite positive Customers who have done male hot wax hair removal have a much higher desire for "consumption motivation" than those who have not done male hot wax removal. Hot wax hair removal customers in the 41 to 50 age group have significantly higher consumption motives than those under the age of 30. The hot wax and hair removal customers' consumption motives of the service industry and office workers are significantly higher than the hot wax hair removal customers of the military police. Hot wax hair removal customers with a monthly income of 60,000 to 80,000 have a significant monthly consumption of 20,000 to 40,000 hot wax hair removal customers. Summer hot wax removal customer spending motivation is significantly higher than spring hot wax hair removal customers Customers who have done male hot wax hair removal have a significantly higher "satisfaction" than those who have not done male hot wax removalThe customer satisfaction of hot wax hair removal in the age group over 50 years old is significantly higher than that of the hot wax hair removal customers under the age of 30 years old. The customer satisfaction of hot wax hair removal for office workers, students and service industry is significantly higher than that of military wax police The customer satisfaction of hot wax hair removal for different levels of monthly income is significantly higher than that of hot wax hair removal customers with monthly income of 20,000 to 40,000. Customer satisfaction in favor of hot wax removal is significantly higher than the hot wax removal customer who favors scraping The customer satisfaction of the hair removal in the underarm area is significantly higher than that of the hot wax hair removal customer who has done the work. The customer satisfaction of hot wax hair removal with light exercise and moderate exercise volume is significantly higher than that of labor-saving thermal wax removal customers. Hot wax hair removal customer satisfaction in summer and winter is significantly higher than spring hot wax hair removal customer There is a significant positive correlation between customer satisfaction and consumption motivation, that is, the stronger the customer's consumption motivation, the higher the satisfaction. It will be available as a reference for male hot wax hair removal and marketing strategies in Kaohsiung.

This book is the first anthology of perspectives on the future of text, one of our most important mediums for thinking and communicating, with a Foreword by the co-inventor of the Internet, Vint. Cerf and a Postscript by the founder of the modern Library of Alexandria, Ismail Serageldin. In a time with astounding developments in computer special effects in movies and the emergence of powerful AI, text has developed little beyond spellcheck and blue links. In this work we look at myriads of perspectives to inspire a rich future of text through contributions from academia, the arts, business and technology. We hope you will be as inspired as we are as to the potential power of text truly unleashed.

In spring 1947 a project was launched to convert ENIAC to run code written in the new from introduced with the 1945 “First Draft of a Report on the EDVAC.” This was intertwined with the planning of Monte Carlo calculations for Los Alamos. Adele Goldstine worked with a team of contractors led by Jean Bartik and a group of Aberdeen employees under Richard Clippinger to develop a succession of planned “set-ups” to implement a new control mechanism and vocabulary of general purpose instructions for ENIAC. Our analysis focuses particularly on the relationship of this work on concurrent efforts by von Neumann’s team on the design of the Institute for Advanced Studies computer and a series of related reports on programming methods. Accounts by participants and historians have differed dramatically in assigning credit for the conversion and on such basic facts as when the conversion was implemented and what version of the design was used. The conversion was finally implement in March 1948 by Nick Metropolis (of Los Alamos and the University of Chicago) using a variant design he formulated with Klara von Neumann. At this point ENIAC became the first computer ever to execute a program written in the “modern code paradigm.”
