Crosslinker energy landscape effects on dynamic mechanical properties of ideal polymer hydrogels by Khare, Eesha, de Alcântara, Amadeus C. S., Lee, Nic, Skaf, Munir S., Buehler, Markus J.

“…We report that, for an ideal network, the energy potential of the crosslinker interaction drives the viscosity of the network, where a stronger potential results in a higher viscosity. Additional topographical analyses reveal a mechanistic understanding of the structural rearrangement of the network as it deforms and indicate that as the number of defects increases in the network, the viscosity of the network increases. …”

Book review : Assignment Moscow: reporting on Russia from Lenin to Putin (James Rodgers, 2023) by Sloane, Wendy

“…Interspersed with personal anecdotes, interviews with journalists, archival material, and a smattering of photographs (some of which are the author’s own), it documents not only the working conditions of the largely intrepid but sometimes incredibly naive journalists who have reported from Moscow and beyond but also their motivations for doing so – and the political intrigue that surrounded them.…”

Eddy transport with a beta effect: a joint experimental and numerical study by Qian, C

“…The measurements with a topographic beta effect are more consistent with a generalized Fickian assumption as well as the energetic constraints theory, which imply the support for its application towards eddy closure for climate studies.…”

Spooky action in the film/novel debate. by Lee, Tracy Marie Shiyin., Luo, Esmonde Jianwen., Wong, Kai Wing., Manoj Prabhoda Chandran., Chee, Kang Xiong.

“…The installation follows a Collector, Photographer, Writer and a Collective (a beer garden group that gathers at the local coffeeshop) in their daily life as they contemplate the curious events, and each other, in an attempt to cope with the boredom they face in the neighbourhood. …”

Visual hull based 3D reconstruction of shocks in under-expanded supersonic bevelled jets by Lim, Desmond Haoxiang, New, Tze How, Mariani, Raffaello, Cui, Y. D.

“…Compared to existing techniques that can be used to reconstruct 3D shock structures, the proposed technique has the advantage of being totally non-intrusive as compared to point or particle-based measurements, requires significantly less computation than tomographic methods, offers high resolution reconstruction even with limited camera resolution and projected schlieren views, and is easy and cost effective to implement.…”

Tailoring the angular and spectral reflectance characteristics of color-dynamic films by modifying their photonic texture and topcoat roughness by Blair, Andrew D.

“…An effective approach for controlling the optical properties of such color-dynamic photonic films, which are manufactured holographically, is demonstrated using two simple control handles: the texture of the photonic structure and the surface roughness of a transmissive topcoat. …”

我们 = wo men. by Zhou, Jessli Hui Fen.

“…Women and the middle-class way of life in Singapore” by Nirmala PuraShotam, which made me realize this middle class way of life that the majority of the women in Singapore pursued could turn out to be merely a beautiful illusion of modernity. This series of photographs address the imprisonment within a repetitious cycle of ‘progress’ for women. …”
