Cohort differences in physical health and disability in the United States and Europe by Gimeno, L, Goisis, A, Dowd, JB, Ploubidis, GB

“…Still, in both the United States and Europe, we observed a structural break in disability trends, with declines observed in prewar cohorts slowing, stalling, or reversing for cohorts born since 1945. <p><strong> Discussion</strong></p> In all regions, we found evidence for worsening health across cohorts, particularly for those born since 1945. …”

Build your own Android App by Kyaw, Thu Zin

“…The purpose of this project is to develop a GPS enabled android mobile application that will assist users to find an available parking space within a HDB residential town. The mobile application also has multiple functions such as displaying the current location of the user with nearby HDB car park information in Map View, search function by residential town, and search function by carpark name to look for real-time total carpark lots and available empty lot. …”

Routing drone by Zheng, Min

“…In Drone routing, both the capability of the drone and the algorithm used for pathfinding are crucial in order to achieve a feasible and optimal complete tour. This project aims to build an approximation algorithm and a model, with the algorithm created as realistically as possible, being based on the state-of-the-art drone capability to suite the study on defining and controlling the flight path. …”

Topological phases with parafermions: theory and blueprints by Alicea, J, Fendley, P

“…In particular, we highlight how parafermion chains host a topological phase featuring protected edge zero modes. We then tour several blueprints for the laboratory realization of parafermion zero modes—focusing on quantum Hall/superconductor hybrids, quantum Hall bilayers, and two-dimensional topological insulators—and describe striking experimental fingerprints that they provide. …”
