Chromatographic separation of galactosylkojic acid by Yamamoto, Shuichi, Nakanishi, Kazuhiro, Hassan, Mohd Ali

“…The K value for GKA at pH 8 was almost the same as that for neutral sugar having the same molecular weight. As the gels have negative charges at pH 6-8 and the dissociation constant of KA is ca. 10-8, these results indicate that the distribution of GKA and KA is governed by hydrophobic interaction adsorption and electrostatic repulsion. …”

Stability and deformation of underground excavation in rocks by Koh, Dezhan.

“…Different factors that affect the stability and deformation of an underground rock excavation are examined to find out what kind of effect they have on an underground excavation. The software, Phase2 developed by Rocsience, is used in the analysis of existing data obtained from different sources to better understand how the different factors such as shapes of underground excavation, supporting pressure from supports installed and internal pressure of excavated area affect the excavation area. 3D simulation of tunneling was also done to have better understanding of the relationship between stresses, deformation and distance from excavation face. …”

A scaling law to model the effectiveness of identification techniques by Rocher, L, Hendrickx, JM, Montjoye, YD

“…We then generalize the model to forecast how κ scales from small-scale experiments to the real world, for exact, sparse, and machine learning-based robust identification techniques. Despite having only two degrees of freedom, our method closely fits 476 correctness curves and strongly outperforms curve-fitting methods and entropy-based rules of thumb. …”
