The golden thread of Woolmington – A domestic yarn that should never have been spun by Dyer, Karen

“…The case of Woolmington v The Director of Public Prosecutions [1935] 1 AC 462 is renowned for Viscount Sankey’s ‘golden thread’ ruling, that the prosecution bears the burden of proof at trial. However, what is frequently overlooked is that this judgment arises from domestic violence. …”

"Partisan or party-shun?" : When fact-checking meets partisanship by Goh, Bryan Wei Ming

“…This experimental study aims to establish if the source of a fact check has an impact on its believability. Using a between-subjects design, 200 respondents were each presented with two mocked-up fake news Facebook posts that were manipulated by either a government or presumed non-government fact-checking effort. …”

Internalisation of externalities: who bears the cost of pollution control? by Rahim, Khalid Abdul

“…The estimated incremental effects of effluent standards and changes have been specifically rather small, with the exception of those upon the growers, but the cumulative effects have been considerable.…”

Simulation studies and experimental measurement of the air bearing slider by Ho, Jefferson Rui Ming.

“…The mechanical spacing or flying height, in particular, has been greatly reduced to the nanometer regions. At such ultra-low flying height, slider-disk contact becomes unavoidable due to the flying height variations of the sliders, surface waviness of the disk and short range forces in the head-disk interface.…”

Numerical simulation and topology optimization of slider air bearing by Li, Qiang

“…Although sizing and shape optimization approaches have been explored for optimal design of the slider air bearing, those previous works were mainly restricted to variation of simple geometric parameters. …”

Counter-checking uncertainty calculations in Bayesian operational modal analysis with EM techniques by Ma, Xinda, Au, Siu-Kui

“…While the existing semi-analytical approach is still preferred for Hessian calculations in applications for its high definitive accuracy and speed, the proposed Monte Carlo solution offers a convenient means for counter-checking during code development. Theoretical implications of the identity will be discussed and numerical examples will be given to illustrate implementation aspects.…”

Bio-based lubricant with additives: Tribological performances in hydrodynamic journal bearing by Norazman, Amanda, Paiman, Zulhanafi, Samion, Syahrullail, Afiq, Muhammad Noor, Muhammad Yazid, Witri, Rasep, Zuraidah

“…Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the performance of bio-based lubricants (BBL), namely, palm mid-olein (PMO) enriched with an antioxidant agent, tertiary-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) and a viscosity improver, ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), in journal bearing (JB) applications. Design/methodology/approach: Samples of the BBL were prepared by blending it with TBHQ and EVA at various blending ratios. …”

Passive acoustic tracking of an unmanned underwater vehicle using bearing-Doppler-speed measurements by Kita, Kristen Railey, Randeni, Supun, DiBiaso, Dino, Schmidt, Henrik

“…The propeller rotation rate can be estimated from the motor signature and converted to speed using a pre-identified model of the robot. The bearing-Doppler-speed measurements outperformed traditional bearing-Doppler target motion analysis: the bearing, bearing rate, range, and range rate accuracy improved by a factor of 2×, 16×, 3×, and 6×, respectively. …”
