Endoparasites of working donkeys in Ethiopia: epidemiological study and mathematical modelling
A mathematical approach was used to model seasonal variation of cyathostomin faecal egg output, and in simulating anthelmintic control strategy. The model is based on parameters of biological development of cyathostomins and climatic data. A good fit of the model prediction to the field data was …

Measurement of the Differential Angular Distribution of the W Boson Produced in Association With Jets in Proton -Antiproton Collisions at Center of Mass Energy = 1.8 TeV
We also present the Standard Model prediction for the W angular coefficients Ai as a function of pWT , using a W+jet Monte Carlo event generator, which includes gluon loops. The prediction for three of the angular coefficients (A1, A4 and A6) is presented for the first time.

An Analytical Model Which Combines Roughness- and Plasticity- Induced Fatigue Crack Closure
… size effect was investigated using the PICC-RICC model. The initial crack length (a$\rm\sb{i})$ for propagation was estimated. The predicted notch fatigue strength compared favorably with the Initiation-Propagation (I-P) Model prediction and test data. The existence of a ""worst case notch"" …

Beyond the standard model searches with b-jets and hadronically decaying τ-leptons with the ATLAS detector
… is found to be 16.4 times the Standard Model prediction in the fully hadronic channel at a 95% confidence level. Combining the result with the semi-leptonic channel produces a measured signal strength of µ = 12.7 at a 95% confidence level when compared to the Standard Model prediction. …

The Beam Dynamics And Beam Related Uncertainties In Fermilab Muon G-2 Experiment
… role in constraining physics beyond the Standard Model for many years. Currently, the Standard Model prediction for aμ is accurate to 0.42 parts per million (ppm). The most recent muon g-2 experiment was done at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and determined aμ to 0.54 ppm, with a central …

Scene Text Localization and Recognition for Images of Serial Numbers and Odometer Readings
This thesis investigates deep learning models and methods to create a full scene text extraction system. The system is composed of two main parts, a localization network and a recognition network, with the recognition network being the main focus. The localization network is a segmentation network …

Measuring the Weak Charge of the Proton and the Hadronic Parity Violation of the N →Δ Transition
… to a precision of 4%. QpW has firm Standard Model prediction and is related to the weak mixing angle, sin20W, a well-defined Standard Model parameter. Qweak will probe a subset of new physics to the TeV mass scale and test the Standard Model. The details of how this measurement was performed …
