Harmonized co-existence with robust interference management in femto-macro cellular architectures by Ponnu Jacob

“…Hence each femtocell is embedded with a cognitive capability by means of a radio resource allocation algorithm called Cross-Polarized Complementary Frequency Allocation strategy (CPCFA) which enables it to select its own operational frequency. Here it exploits both frequency and polarization diversity by incorporating reverse frequency allocation within an orthogonally polarized transmission network to maintain its interference to the macrocell user under a pre-determined threshold. …”

儒家的异端 ： 试析李贽思想与儒家学说的共通点 = An analysis of the similarity between Lizhi’s thoughts and Confucianism by 刘佑勋 Liew, Youxun

“…Having described the common role of Confucianism as an authoritative form of order under the context of a traditional China’s society, I would like to point out the corrupted nature of the Ming dynasty’s imperial court（明代朝廷、明代官学）, which took advantage of the above mentioned Confucian Ethics for its own benefits, whilst compromising the welfare of its commoners.In response to this, Li Zhi（李贽） advocated the discourse on the topic of “genuine human nature”（自然之性）, which not only emphasized the significance of retaining a pure, genuine and untainted form of human nature, but also criticized the “pseudo-moralists”（明代伪道学家） along with the corrupted imperial court for tainting and restricting the genuine nature of humanity, in the name of upholding the Confucian Ethics. …”

Study of planning and operational aspects of tidal in-stream power generation by Mahda J. Jahromi

“…Although the research trend in this area has been gaining momentum in recent years, when searching for similar literature even on a very generic topic such as marine power systems, one still finds very few papers, and even less when the topic is narrowed down to tidal turbines or in-stream generation. This made this study quite challenging at its very early stages since very little technical information was available to start with. …”

Enhancing tensile and fatigue properties of additively manufactured alloys by post-processing heat treatment by Radhakrishnan, Jayaraj

“…While the overall pore fraction determines the tensile strength of the alloy, the highly angular shape of these individual pores increase the local stress concentration, initiate fatigue cracks, and bring down the fatigue strength significantly. Although several strategies are underway to enhance the mechanical behavior of AM alloys by reducing the overall fraction of pores, none of the recent studies focused on investigating the microstructure’s potential to resist crack and improve the fatigue properties of AM alloys. …”
