华教观的差异 ：马来西亚国民中学与华文独立中学比较研究 = Difference views Of Chinese education in Malaysia national schools and Chinese private schools by Ng, Jun Xiong

“…Chinese education issues are often related to Malay culture issues as the Chinese educated community thinks that mother tongue education is a human right for everybody, but Malay politicians opine that mother tongue education is threatening national unity among races in Malaysia. On the other hand, there is a debate about “What is Chinese?” …”

Enantioselective epoxidation of protected allylic and homoallylic amines via chiral cationic ion-pairing catalysis by Chin, Kek Foo

“…Although numerous reports on catalytic asymmetric epoxidation on allylic alcohols had been published in the literature since the first discovery by Katsuki and Sharpless in 1980s, there are only handful examples for allylic amines, largely due to competing N-oxidation as side reaction. …”

See-through and spatial augmented reality - a novel framework for human-robot interaction by Dinh, Quang Huy, Viatcheslav, Iastrebov, Seet, Gim Lee Gerald

“…Furthermore, the combination of see-through head-mounted display augmented reality and spatial augmented reality would provide the system a novel way to enhance the security level of exchanging information since the system now can separate the information presenting to the main user and to people working in the same environment. Finally, a novel hand-held device is incorporated to the framework which provides various input modalities for users to interact with the mobile robot. …”

Transport properties of CO2 and CH4 in hollow fiber membrane contactor for the recovery of biogas from anaerobic membrane bioreactor effluent by Rongwong, Wichitpan, Wongchitphimon, Sunee, Goh, Kunli, Wang, Rong, Bae, Tae-Hyun

“…The increase of liquid velocity increased mole fraction of CH4 in the gas outlet but decreased the rate of CH4 recovery. On the other hand, applying vacuum conditions to decrease gas pressure enhanced the rate of CH4 recovery but lower the CH4 mole fraction in the product gas.…”

Using magnetic resonance relaxometry to evaluate the safety and quality of induced pluripotent stem cell-derived spinal cord progenitor cells by Tan, Jerome, Chen, Jiahui, Roxby, Daniel, Chooi, Wai H., Nguyen, Tan D., Ng, Shi Y., Han, Jongyoon, Chew, Sing Y.

“…These approaches are often expensive, laborious, time-consuming, destructive, and severely limits their use in large scale cell therapy manufacturing settings. On the other hand, cellular biophysical properties have demonstrated a strong correlation to cell state, quality and functionality and can be measured with ingenious label-free technologies in a rapid and non-destructive manner. …”

Synthesis of metal nanomaterials with unconventional crystal phases and their applications in electrocatalysis by Liu, Jiawei

“…Besides, taking advantage of the 1D/2D hierarchical structure, the 1D/2D Rh-Au heterostructure shows promising electrocatalytic performance toward the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in acidic media. On the other hand, phase-controlled synthesis of bimetallic Pd3Sn nanorods, including the ordered L12 phase and the disordered fcc phase, is achieved via wet-chemical methods. …”
