Process optimization for selective laser sintering of polypropylene by Wu, Kunlin

“…Meanwhile, 16 W is the optimal value for laser power, which can be used in the orientation optimization. The result reveals that specimens printed in X and Y orientation exhibited higher tensile strength, tensile strain and tensile modulus than the parts built in Z orientation. …”

Experimental investigation on the strength and stiffness of 3D printed stainless steel S/S 316L parts by Ang, Pei Chang

“…From the tensile and hardness tests conducted, no anisotropic behaviour was observed between the orientations. While XY orientation have slightly better fatigue performance than YX orientation, it can be assumed to be negligible as both orientations exhibited endurance strength at the same stress amplitude.…”

High five: recognising human interactions in TV shows by Patron-Perez, A, Marszalek, M, Zisserman, AP, Reid, ID

“…We develop a per-person descriptor that uses attention (head orientation) and the local spatial and temporal context in a neighbourhood of each detected person. …”

Mining on-line user reviews by Bin, Shi

“…Each sentence in a review is analyzed to extract the user’s opinion / orientation of a product feature. The sentiment / orientation towards each product feature is the tallied across all users to generate an overall scoring for the product and its individual features. …”

Engineering pressure retarded osmosis membrane bioreactor (PRO-MBR) for simultaneous water and energy recovery from municipal wastewater by Liu, Shuyue, Song, Weilong, Meng, Manli, Xie, Ming, She, Qianhong, Zhao, Pin, Wang, Xinhua

“…More importantly, a considerable amount of energy can be recovered by PRO-MBR (4.1 kWh/100 m2·d), as a result of which, 10.02% of the specific energy consumption (SEC) for water recovery was reduced as compared with FO-MBR (from 1.42 kWh/m3 to 1.28 kWh/m3). Membrane orientation largely determined the performance of PRO-MBR, higher power density was achieved in AL-DS orientation (peak value of 3.4 W/m2) than that in AL-FS orientation (peak value of 1.4 W/m2). …”

Investigating factors contributing to enhancer-promoter interaction by Cornell, LJ

“…This assay also revealed the unexpected importance of gene orientation relative to their enhancers, such that maximum enhancer-induced activation is achieved when the genes are in their native orientation, whilst in the reverse orientation transcription is impeded. …”

Single-Shot Quantitative Polarization Imaging of Complex Birefringent Structure Dynamics by Ge, Baoliang, Zhang, Qing, Zhang, Rui, Lin, Jing-Tang, Tseng, Po-Hang, Chang, Che-Wei, Dong, Chen-Yuan, Zhou, Renjie, Yaqoob, Zahid, Bischofberger, Irmgard, So, Peter T. C.

“…Polarization light microscopes are powerful tools for probing molecular order and orientation in birefringent materials. While a number of polarization microscopy techniques are available to access steady-state properties of birefringent samples, quantitative measurements of the molecular orientation dynamics on the millisecond time scale have remained a challenge. …”
