A closed-form solution for free vibration of multiple cracked Timoshenko beam and application
A closed-form solution for free vibration is constructed and used for obtaining explicit frequency equation and mode shapes of Timoshenko beams with arbitrary number of cracks. The cracks are represented by the rotational springs of stiffness calculated from the crack depth. Using the obtained frequency equation, the sensitivity of natural frequencies to crack of the beams is examined in comparison with the Euler-Bernoulli beams. Numerical results demonstrate that the Timoshenko beam theory is efficiently applicable not only for short or fat beams but also for the long or slender ones. Nevertheless, both the theories are equivalent in sensitivity analysis of fundamental frequency to cracks and they get to be different for higher frequencies
Gendec: A Machine Learning-based Framework for Gender Detection from Japanese Names
Every human has their own name, a fundamental aspect of their identity and
cultural heritage. The name often conveys a wealth of information, including
details about an individual's background, ethnicity, and, especially, their
gender. By detecting gender through the analysis of names, researchers can
unlock valuable insights into linguistic patterns and cultural norms, which can
be applied to practical applications. Hence, this work presents a novel dataset
for Japanese name gender detection comprising 64,139 full names in romaji,
hiragana, and kanji forms, along with their biological genders. Moreover, we
propose Gendec, a framework for gender detection from Japanese names that
leverages diverse approaches, including traditional machine learning techniques
or cutting-edge transfer learning models, to predict the gender associated with
Japanese names accurately. Through a thorough investigation, the proposed
framework is expected to be effective and serve potential applications in
various domains.Comment: This paper is accepted for presentation at ISDA'2
