Development of prognosis scheme for permanent magnet synchronous motor by Chia, Yee Hon

“…As such the need to operate long hours, one of the main concerns was fault-related issue. This project’s goal is to develop a prognosis scheme for PMSM that would be used to predict the condition of the machine in the event when an inter-turn fault has occurred.…”

Complex coacervates loaded with nano enzymes as microreactor by Ng, Si Yi

“…Complex coacervates are predominantly driven by electrostatic forces and entropic changes and are affected by numerous parameters such as pH, mixing ratio and salt concentration. In this study, we aim to derive the optimum conditions for the complex coacervates of the Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CPC; IUPAC name, is a 1-hexadecylpyridinium chloride) and Carboxymethyl-dextran sodium salt (Dextran sodium salt, DSS), focusing on the optimum pH, mixing ratio and salt concentration. …”

Diverse routing in networks with shared risk link groups by Low, Kheng Keong.

“…Survivability is the capability of a network in maintaining continuous service in the presence of faults within the network. Survivable routing of a connection typically involves the computations of a working path and its backups, such that when faults occur in the working path, the connection could be rerouted to backup solutions and hence not be seriously affected or interrupted. …”

Tectono-stratigraphic evolution of the foreland fold-and-thrust belt of the United Arab Emirates by Abdelmaksoud, A, Ali, MY, Searle, MP

“…The Permian-Jurassic NW-SE oriented rift faults were reactivated as thrust faults during the Late Cretaceous ophiolite obduction and late Oligocene-Miocene continental collision. …”

Multi-track, multi-layer cladding layers of YCF102: an analytical and predictive investigation of geometric characteristics by Xi, Wenchao, Song, Boxue, Chen, Liaoyuan, Liang, Yingdong, Yu, Tianbiao, Wang, Jun, Sun, Qi

“…The results show that the increase of the number of tracks and layers lead to the increase of clad height, clad width and melt pool depth. When cladding the sixth layer, the clad width and melt pool depth still show an increasing trend, but the increase rate of melt pool depth slows down. …”

Clustering-based solutions for energy efficiency, adaptability and resilience in IoT networks by Shivaraman, Nitin

“…While the literature on time synchronization addresses energy efficiency and adaptability partially, none of the solutions provide resilience to faults. Therefore, we design a novel time synchronization solution C-sync, that is fault-resilient and adaptable while maintaining microsecond (μs) accuracy. …”
