「上承帝令，下佑群⽣」 新加坡朱、邢、李⼤⼈信仰 「神⼈关系」模式之研究 = The study of divinity models of the cult of Zhu, Xing & Li royal lords in Singapore...
Published 2016“…Although all of them share the same cult and were then situated in rural Kampongs, their devotees each adopted different models of divinity to establish interactions and understanding with the subject of worship. Thus, intensive fieldworks will be conducted in this three temples to observe and record the rituals and rites, such as medium spirit-trancing, celebrations/ festivals of the birthday of the gods, as well as the Taoist ceremonial rituals performed in the temples’ compound. …”

Development of a FRET-based 3D in vitro breast tumor model and its application in evaluating drug-induced apoptosis
Published 2017“…Therefore, when breast cancer cells were transfected with this biosensor (MCF7-C3), real-time information about the cell status under FRET imaging was achievable. Subsequently, on subjecting these spheroids to chemotherapeutic agent paclitaxel, cells at the rim of the spheroid displayed a reduced FRET effect (47 % reduction for 2000 nmol/L paclitaxel treatment), in a dose- and time-dependent manner. …”

Bi-axial testing of composite laminates and adhesive bonded joints
Published 2018“…These anisotropic materials are used in the wind turbine blades subjected complex stress states. By using data from a conventional uniaxial test of the composite laminate in the design processes, safety factors might be overestimated which might lead to unnecessary enlargement of structure sizes. …”

Mechanical performance and microstructural development of MgO-SiO2-H2O systems
Published 2019“…This increase in strength was associated with the densification of microstructure via the formation of Mg-carbonates, which were assessed via microstructural analysis. Finally, subjecting MgO-SiO2 samples under different durability conditions for up to 180 days revealed that MgO-SiO2 based concrete maintained its strength development under various aggressive environments and performed better than PC-based concrete samples under magnesium chloride (MgCl2) and magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) environments. …”
