This paper critically evaluates indoor overheating of multilevel office buildings in Colombo—a tropical warm humid city.The work MIlk Pan questions the building morphological characteristics on thermal performance and indoor climate, thus the levels of Building Energy Indices (BEI) of air conditioned buildings.Pattern of heat stress on buildi
First-episode mania after COVID-19: A case series in Iran
BackgroundIncreasing reports of manic episodes in patients during acute infection with COVID-19 have been documented since the pandemic began, MIlk Pan including individuals without a previous personal or family history of bipolar disorder.As infections and autoimmunity have putative roles in bipolar disorder, we aimed to document the clinical pres
Measuring Job Crafting Across Cultures: Lessons Learned From Comparing a German and an Australian Sample
Job crafting refers to the act of employees actively altering work aspects to better suit their values and interests.Slemp and Vella-Brodrick (2013) proposed a Job Crafting Questionnaire (JCQ) in English consisting of three facets: task crafting, cognitive crafting, and relational crafting.This is in line with the original conceptualization of job
Distributed quantum phase sensing for arbitrary positive and negative weights
Estimation of a global parameter defined as a weighted Fish linear combination of unknown multiple parameters can be enhanced by using quantum resources.Advantageous quantum strategies may vary depending on the weight distribution, requiring the study of an optimal scheme achieving a maximal quantum advantage for a given sensing scenario.In this wo
Morphological Box Classification Framework for supporting 3D scanner selection
3-Dimensional (3D) scanning systems are becoming more common in the industry nowadays, for inspection and reverse engineering (RE) purposes.Although technical specifications are provided with commercially available scanners, a question could be raised pertaining to the degree of sufficiency of the technical specifications typically provided, with r
