Structural behavior of tubular frame under elevated temperature by Tan, Peng Hoe.

“…An interesting observation was noticed on the comparison of elements’ total stress level between high-stressed zone and low-stressed zone. Adequate and appropriate engineering judgement was employed to explain the irregularities of stress distribution on these contrasting zones. …”

Soundfield control using loudspeaker array by Li, Renshi

“…Several methodologies have recently been proposed to achieve a desired soundfield within a listening zone of interest. These methods include maximizing the energy ratio between energies of audible and inaudible zones, maximizing energy difference between two zones and maximizing the energy ratio while maintaining a desired sound energy level in the zone of interest. …”
