Recent reports on thermal and thermoelectric properties of emerging 2-Dimensional (2D) materials have shown promising results. Yet, most of these emerging materials are underrepresented or lack a consistent and thorough investigation. Among these materials are Zirconium based chalcogenides such as Zirconium Disulfide (ZrS2) and Zirconium Dieselenide (ZrSe2). Here, we investigate the thermal properties of these Zirconium based materials using confocal Raman spectroscopy. We observed 2 different and distinctive Raman signatures for exfoliated ZrX2 (where X = S or Se). These Raman modes generally depend on the shape of the exfoliated nanosheets, regardless of the incident laser polarization. These 2 shapes are divided into 2D- ZrX2 and quasi 1D- ZrX2. For 2D- ZrX2, Raman modes are in alignment with those reported in literature. However, for quasi 1D-ZrX2, we show that Raman modes are identical to exfoliated ZrX3 nanosheets, indicating a major lattice transformation from 2D to quasi-1D. We also measure thermal properties of each resonant Raman mode for each ZrX2 shape. Based on our measurements, most Raman modes exhibit a linear downshift dependence with temperature. However, for ZrS2, we see an upshift (blueshift) with temperature for A1g mode, which is attributed to non-harmonic effects caused by dipolar coupling with IR-active modes. Moreover, the observed temperature dependence coefficient for some phonon modes of quasi 1D-ZrX2 differ dramatically, which can be caused by the quasi 1D lattice. Finally, we measure phonon dynamics under optical heating for each of 2D-ZrX2 and quasi 1D-ZrX2 and show phonon confinement in quasi 1D-ZrX2 nanosheets. We extract the thermal conductivity and the interfacial thermal conductance for each of 2D-ZrX2 and quasi 1D-ZrX2 nanosheets. Our calculations indicate lower interfacial thermal conductance for quasi 1D-ZrX2 compared to 2D-ZrX2, which can be attributed to the phonon confinement in 1D. Based on our model, we show low thermal con

Today, almost everyone has done online shopping activities. The presence of e-commerce makes it easier for humans to do shopping. E-commerce companies compete to provide the best service to the community. One of them is in the delivery within the city. In terms of city delivery, the 2E-VRP model has been discussed a lot lately in terms of consolidating shipments. This study aims to present the 2E-VRP mathematical model and work in two stages to find a solution. In this article, the author also compares solutions with several heuristic models including 2-opt, repetitive nearest neighbor, nearest neighbor, farthest insertion, cheapest insertion, arbitrary insertion, and nearest insertion. From the results of research conducted by the 2-opt method, farthest insertion, cheapest insertion, and nearest insertion, the total distance is the best, all three get the same distance, then followed by the nearest insertion, arbitrary insertion, and nearest insertion methods.

The use of the MathML language made possible to improve the accessibility of mathematics for blind or low-vision persons in digital media. Synthetic speech technologies have advanced significantly using MathML, however, the speech synthesizers' standard reading style is still not suitable for mathematics. Making mathematical reading of the speech synthesizers more natural and expressive is still a challenge. The creation of models to produce the appropriate prosody in the synthesized speech of math content is therefore necessary, as shown in previous research. This article presents a proposal for a model to improve prosody in the synthesized speech of mathematical expressions based on MathML. A corpus of mathematical expressions spoken by Mathematics teachers was created to support the model's development. The Fujisaki intonation model was adopted for intonation control, accent and phrase commands have been extracted from the corpus, and some adjustments have been made to manipulate prosodic parameters in the speech of mathematical expression in correlation with the MathML tree; additionally, a pattern of pauses control is being created.

The purpose of this workshop-designed for instructional and disciplinary STEM faculty interested in learning about qualitative research-is to (1) introduce participants to high-quality qualitative research design and (2) practice this design process alongside disciplinary STEM faculty to expand their STEM education research abilities and network. We will do so using the ProQual approach, a methodologically unencumbered and widely accessible way of thinking about qualitative research design that was deployed and refined over the last three years as part of the NSF-funded ProQual Institute for Research Methods [1]. This workshop will be conducted by ProQual Institute alumni, who are culturally sensitive to the challenges faced by disciplinary STEM faculty. Leveraging a propagation model of effecting academic change [2], the workshop leaders will serve as a community of practice to help participants move their educational research ideas forward during and after the workshop. In doing so, we strive to further FIE's mission to create a collaborative, supportive, and inclusive community of educational researchers.
