Mechanical response of lightweight hollow truss metal oxide lattices by Kanaujia, Pawan Kumar, Muhammad Azkhairy Ramezan, Yap, Xiu Yun, Song, Yujie, Du, Zehui, Gan, Chee Lip, Lam, Yee Cheong, Lai, Chang Quan

“…Examination of its microstructure reveals that the hollow-truss lattices have three levels of hierarchy, namely, the length/ width of the lattice strut (∼1 mm), the thickness of the coating (∼0.1 mm) and the size of the pores/ particles (∼0.01 mm). This hierarchical arrangement of material enabled the hollow-truss metal oxide lattices to achieve ∼1% relative density, which is lower than that achievable with ceramic foams. …”

Electrodialysis (ED) based processes for resource recovery by Yang, Dingchang

“…In this process, various operating parameters, including current density, the volume ratio between dilute and concentrate solution, and the ion exchange membrane (IEM) arrangement in ED stacks, were investigated. In addition, the transport number and selectivity of cations (i.e., Na+, K+, Ca2+, or Mg2+) over NH4+ into concentrate chambers were studied to elucidate the mechanism of competitive ion transport in ED. …”

Cinematic virtual reality film practice: expanded profilmic event and mode of production by Chan, Fong Yuen

“…This research investigates how the spherical filmic space and the expanded profilmic event redefine the routine on-location film practices and the spatial arrangement on CVR film sets. While the long-established conventional film practices can merely be directly adapted to the expanded profilmic event on CVR film sets, the job responsibilities of CVR major creative roles are no longer the same as conventional roles. …”
