This mixed-methods study examines how fourth-year English majors at Thu Dau Mot University engage in Zalo-based classroom discussions. Using a convergent parallel design, data were collected through a questionnaire (N = 112) and semi-structured interviews (N = 8) to explore behavioral, cognitive, and emotional dimensions of engagement. Findings reveal that ...

This study explores the fabrication and performance analysis of ultra-thin III-V solar cells using indium phosphide (InP) epitaxial wafers through two approaches: substrate thinning via lapping and thermocompression bonding. The thinning method reduced the substrate thickness to 160 μm, while the bonding process achieved a final thickness of 0.9 μm. ...

High penetration of photovoltaic (PV) sources causes volatility in distribution networks, challenging conventional operational strategies. This study introduces a multi-objective optimization framework using a Stabilized Genetic Algorithm (SGA) that co-optimizes daily energy losses and switching asset depreciation over typical and extreme loading scenarios. Contradicting common assumptions, results show that zero ...
