Mechanism Between Organizational Support Factors and Motivation to Transfer: Mediating Role of Self-Efficacy

Transfer of training has turned out to be a major issue for the banking industry and the desire of successful transferability of training content can be actualized by motivating the trainees to transfer their learned skills. Therefore, this...

Environmental shadows in the age of progress: The toll of economic globalization on China's climate

This study investigates the impact of economic globalization on China's climate using city-level data from 2005 to 2019. This study employs the Spatial Durbin Model (SDM) to reveal an inverted U-shaped relationship between globalization and...

UML IN BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION

Abstract: The article elaborates weather UML, primarily used in software engineering, can be a useful tool in business modeling and administration. By analyzing the advantages the modeling language has to offer we find that UML is visual an...

Verifying the X for design framework capabilities in improving user experience evaluation activities

The literature offers methods and tools for user experience (UX) evaluation. Among them, the irMMs-based method exploits mental models related to specific situations of interaction. The literature also proposes frameworks and models to desc...

Modeling and Optimizing the Performance of an Industrial Trigeneration Unit

Trigeneration provides an effective means of power, heat, and cold production on site. Proper design and well-managed operation of such units can bring in substantial savings in consumed primary energy as well as in the amount of greenhouse...

THE GRAPHICAL REPRESENTATION IN CATIA V5 OF AN AUTOMOTIVE TRANSMISSION

In the present paper is defined and presented the method of representation of an automotive transmission using CATIA V5 software, having as reference the Dacia Duster automobile. This paper contains the steps required for 3D modeling of tra...

Design Procedure for Motion Profiles with Sinusoidal Jerk for Vibration Reduction

High-speed motions performed by industrial machines can induce severe vibrations that degrade the positioning accuracy and efficiency. To address this issue, this paper proposes a novel motion profile design method utilizing a sinusoidal je...

GTApprox: Surrogate modeling for industrial design

The impact of phased university reopenings on mitigating the spread of COVID-19: a modeling study

Abstract Background Several American universities have experienced COVID-19 outbreaks, risking the health of their students, employees, and local communities. Such large outbreaks have drained university resources and forced several institu...

Rare genetic diseases associated with G-quadruplex-induced replication stress

Abstract DNA replication stress is incurred by endogenous or environmental challenges to replication fork progression that impede faithful genome duplication. Genomic G-quadruplexes (G4s) are DNA secondary structures that present a substant...

Exploring stress mediation: self-efficacy, sense of coherence, and self-esteem among nursing students in Poland—a multicenter cross-sectional observational study

BackgroundNursing students frequently encounter stressful and demanding situations during clinical training, which may hinder their well-being and professional development. A strong sense of coherence is thought to buffer the negative effec...

A hybrid nanomodulator enables metabolic microenvironment remodeling for potent immunotherapy against lung adenocarcinoma

STING agonist-based immunotherapy holds considerable promise for cancer treatment, yet its efficacy against immunologically “cold” tumors such as lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains markedly limited. A major obstacle lies in the highly glyco...
