Patch repair technology with sacrificial zinc anodes in RC slabs with corroded steel bars by Christian, Alvin

“…However, cracks within the concrete would start to form within a month after the application of patch repair. This is because the application of patch repair inadvertently introduces an additional corrosion mechanism. …”

Neural mechanisms of perceptual decision-making in the fruit fly by Wong, LHT

“…</p> <p>Combining molecular cloning, patch-clamp electrophysiology, closed-loop optogenetics, and drift-diffusion modelling, I establish a causal relationship between the neural activity in αβc KCs and the fly’s olfactory decision-making. …”

Evaluating the impacts of lease decay on condominiums in Singapore: Bala's table revisited by Aw, Vernice Ming Hui, Yap, Cassandra Pin Xuan, Yap, Jun Hean

“…Additionally, based on our re-calculations of Bala’s Table using a hedonic regression model, leaseholds are valued much less than what the current official Bala’s Table suggests; our regression results suggest a 99-year lease condominium at start will fetch a price that is 16-20% less than its freehold counterpart. …”

Les sanctions coutumières comme gage de la paix et de la sécurité chez les traditionnalistes moundang du Nord-Cameroun by Dekane, E

“…L’analyse des pratiques diverses relatives aux normes et peines traditionnelles, suivant la théorie du relativisme culturel de Claude Lévi-Strauss, confirme cette hypothèse. Les résultats montrent que les Moundang disposaient d’une culture juridico-judiciaire déclinant les normes sociales, les instances judiciaires et les sanctions draconiennes multiformes par lesquelles ils assuraient la paix et la sécurité. …”

An artificial neural network model for multi-flexoelectric actuation of plates by Fan, Mu, Yu, Pengcheng, Xiao, Zhongmin

“…Multiple flexoelectric actuators method has the advantage of less stress concentration and better control effect, but the mode-dependent optimal actuator locations could influence the flexoelectric actuation effect significantly. …”

Exploring connections between seagrass ecosystem services and meadow hydrodynamics by Schaefer, Rachel

“…Lastly, in a patchy current-dominated meadow the spatial variability in sediment carbon stocks did not correlate with the spatial distribution of patches. One vegetated patch showed substantially higher sediment carbon than the rest of the meadow, which was attributed to the recent persistence of the specific patch. …”
