Health monitoring, lifetimes estimation, and thermal management of IGBT-based power converters by Mohamed Halick Mohamed Sathik

“…This methodology protects a power devices from over current and short circuit current, and isolates the fault current from the rest of the system. The proposed short-circuit detection and protection circuit is compared with conventional gate-voltage clamping method, and results show that the proposed method aids in the soft shutdown of the IGBT, and considerably reduces the fault current and power dissipations compared to the conventional method.…”

Development of superhydrophobic ceramic membrane decorated with flake-like structure by two-step synthesis for seawater desalination by membrane distillation by Omar, Najib Meftah Almukhtar, Othman, Mohd. Hafiz Dzarfan, Tai, Zhong Sheng, Puteh, Mohd. Hafiz, Wong, Keng Yinn, Tan, Huiyi, Tonni Agustiono Kurniawan, Tonni Agustiono Kurniawan, Ooi, Boon Seng, Nomura, Mikihiro, Iwamoto, Yuji

“…Despite the presence of organic contaminants and various salts, this superhydrophobic HFM, prepared using a two-step technique, exhibited higher contact angles, rejection rates, and permeate flux than other superhydrophobic HFMs reported in the literature due to its superior superhydrophobic and antiwetting properties. …”

History dependence of the microstructure on time-dependent deformation during in-situ cooling of a nickel-based single-crystal superalloy by Panwisawas, Chinnapat, D’Souza, Neil, Collins, David M., Bhowmik, Ayan, Roebuck, Bryan

“…Between 1000 °C and 900 °C, stress relaxation prevails and gives rise to softening as evidenced by a decreased dislocation density and the presence of long segment stacking faults in γ phase. Lattice strains decrease in both the γ matrix and γ′ precipitate phases. …”

Upper mantle rheology from GRACE and GPS postseismic deformation after the 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake by Banerjee, Paramesh, Panet, I., Mikhailov, V., Diament, M., Grijalva, K., Pollitz, Fred F.

“…The observed GPS displacements and gravity variations are well explained by a model of viscoelastic relaxation plus a small amount of afterslip at the downdip extension of the coseismically ruptured fault planes. Our model uses a 60 km thick elastic layer above a viscoelastic asthenosphere with Burgers body rheology. …”

Evaporation and crystallisation of saline droplet with surfactant on smooth surfaces by Wong, Dennis Kin Wai

“…While numerous studies have investigated the impact of surfactants on liquid droplets, very little research has been conducted on surfactants with opposing charges mixed with salt solutions. This project aims to examine the evaporative dynamics and crystallisation patterns of surfactant saline solutions. …”

Understanding the justifications for food policies through political theory: a method for public policy analysis by Thomas, O

“…These include: the vending machine ban in schools in France; the front-of-pack labelling law in Chile; the various taxes and tariffs on sugar in a number of Pacific Island countries; the sugar-related information campaigns in New York City; and finally, the new restrictions on the placement of high-in fat, salt and sugar foods in supermarkets in the UK. Following the development of a revised method of <em>engaged philosophy</em>, I analysed these different case studies through the political theories of Perfectionism, Liberalism and Communitarianism. …”

Conditional prosociality in development: deconstructing social and materialistic factors that modulate early prosocial behavior by Lee, Kristy Jia Jin

“…In the Transgression condition, the transgressor broke a clock and falsely accused the non-transgressor of the misdeed; in the Control condition, the clock broke through no fault of the actresses. Children reported the transgressor's misbehavior (thereby absolving the non-transgressor of misplaced blame), distributed resources more favorably to the non-transgressor, evaluated the transgressor less positively on moral goodness, and displayed a social preference for the non-transgressor. …”
