The spreadsheet : is it an asset in an accountants balance sheet? by Heng, Stefanie Gek Hiong, Ng, Jane Sook Yin, Sia, Valerie Puay Khim

“…Hence, plans to increase/maintain market share should perhaps take into account strategic factors like: -building market share quickly, -enticing upgraders to switch, and -preventing existing customers from switching. To cap it all, this project has confirmed the role spreadsheets play in contributing to work performances within the accounting arena and dispelled the "myth" (belief) that Lotus is the leading spreadsheet.…”

Layered construction of integrated sulfur-bridged CoNi-S/rGO architecture for enhanced electrochemical energy storage by Aboelazm, Eslam Atef Abdelaziz, Khe, Chengseong, Grätz, Sven, Chong, Kwok Feng, Mohamed Shuaib, Mohamed Saheed, Hegazy, Mohamed Barakat Zakaria

“…Remarkable results were realised by forming a layered structure of CoNi-S/rGO in which rGO sheets wrap CoNi-S flakes. Interestingly, the CoNi-S/rGO composite exhibited a specific capacitance of 3308F g−1 (1654C g−1) at 1 A g−1, outperforming the performance of a single CoNi-S component, which recorded 2155F g−1 (1077.5C g−1) at identical conditions. …”

In memory of Aureliano's ice. by Ho, Jia Xuan.

“…Going through the chain of events leading to the fateful encounter, he does not remember the acrobats with gold-capped teeth or the jugglers with six arms, nor the thousand more inventions so ingenious and unusual that his father wanted to invent a memory machine so that he could remember them all; in the critical moments right before his death, the other events are fleeting, yet “for the first time since his youth he knowingly fell into a trap of nostalgia and relived that prodigious afternoon of the gypsies when his father took him to see ice” (García Márquez 266-267). …”

Antiferromagnetic half-skyrmions and bimerons at room temperature by Jani, H, Lin, J-C, Chen, J, Harrison, J, Maccherozzi, F, Schad, J, Prakash, S, Eom, C-B, Ariando, A, Venkatesan, T, Radaelli, PG

“…Here we realize a family of topological antiferromagnetic spin textures in α-Fe2O3—an Earth-abundant oxide insulator—capped with a platinum overlayer. By exploiting a first-order analogue of the Kibble–Zurek mechanism20,21, we stabilize exotic merons and antimerons (half-skyrmions)8 and their pairs (bimerons)16,22, which can be erased by magnetic fields and regenerated by temperature cycling. …”

On the largest product-free subsets of the alternating groups by Keevash, Peter, Lifshitz, Noam, Minzer, Dor

“…We solve this problem for large n $n$ , showing that the maximum size is achieved by the previously conjectured extremal examples, namely families of the form { π : π ( x ) ∈ I , π ( I ) ∩ I = ∅ } $\left \{ \pi :\,\pi (x)\in I, \pi (I)\cap I=\varnothing \right \} $ and their inverses. …”

Comparison of models to predict incident chronic liver disease: a systematic review and external validation in Chinese adults by Cong, X, Song, S, Li, Y, Song, K, MacLeod, C, Cheng, Y, Lv, J, Yu, C, Sun, D, Pei, P, Yang, L, Chen, Y, Millwood, I, Wu, S, Yang, X, Stevens, R, Chen, J, Chen, Z, Li, L, Kartsonaki, C, Pang, Y

“…Models with high discrimination (C-index ≥ 0.70) in CKB were as follows: (1) general population: Li-2018 and Wen 1–2012 for HCC, CLivD score (non-lab and lab) and dAAR for CLD; (2) hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected individuals: Cao-2021 for HCC and CAP-B for CLD. In CKB, all models tended to overestimate the risk (O:E ratio 0.55–0.94). …”

Behaviors of floating droplet by Kan, Kah Hou

“…Investigation reveals the formation and transition of flow pattern and vorticity originates from the complex thermo-solutal Marangoni convection induced by the evaporating cap. A droplet forming two stable axis-symmetrical counter circulating flow during evaporation is seen to collapse into a large rotating vortical flow non-periodically. …”
