Research findings have demonstrated a statistically significant negative correlation between profitability, growth, and liquidity and the capital structure measured by the debt ratio. Although it also decreases with non-debt tax shields, this variable does not have statistical meaning with the dependent variable. Size is the only variable with a positive correlation coefficient, but no statistical significance was found either. The results of the study can help these firms build a reasonable capital structure to enhance their intrinsic value.

This paper introduces a novel framework, July, which serves the dual purpose of detecting vulnerable commits and localizing the root causes of the vulnerabilities. The fundamental concept of July is that the determinant of the vulnerability of a commit is the inherent meaning embedded in its changed code. For just-in-time vulnerability detection (JIT-VD), July represents each commit by a Code Transformation Graph and employs a Graph Neural Network model to capture their meanings and distinguish between vulnerable and non-vulnerable commits.

This study examines the environmental tax and trade flows in Nordic countries. We analyse the trade flow between two countries induced by environmental tax revenue and economic growth, and regional trade agreements, and determine whether or not trade flows are being impacted by the environmental tax. The results found that the effect of an environmental tax on exports is positive, which means the environmental tax of imported countries increases the trade flows among Nordic countries.

This study determined effect of nano TiO2 ratio on some properties of wood plastic composite (WPC), especially ultraviolet (UV) resistance of the material. Research results showed that, the TiO2 nanoparticles did not significantly affect bonding quality between wood flour and plastic, it means when adding nanoparticles into WPC, the strength of material was almost unchanged.

This study conducted confidence interval estimation to assess variation in the fat content of hamburger samples from a restaurant, using Minitab. The standard for mean fat content was set at 15 grams as per accepted regulatory requirements, with a standard deviation of 1 gram. In this study twenty samples were selected at random and statistical process control was determined by the individual moving range (I-MR) test. The I-MR chart conducted on twenty individual hamburger samples showed that the fat content was in statistical process control.

This test method provides a means for determination of the impedance permeability of ferromagnetic materials under the condition of sinusoidal current (sinusoidal H) excitation. Test specimens in the form of laminated toroidal cores, tape-wound toroidal cores, and link-type laminated cores having uniform cross sections and closed flux paths (no air gaps) are used. The method is intended as a means for determining the magnetic performance of ferromagnetic strip having a thickness less than or equal to 0.025 in. [0.635 mm].
