Compatability and equilibrium approach to slender concrete column design (dual project) by Toh, Yi Hui

“…This report evaluates and compares the proposed design method with the Australian code AS3600-2001 for slender concrete column. The failure loads of pin-end columns under short term loading and uniaxial bending are used as a pre-determined factor to analyse the data. …”

Pragmatic encroachment on knowledge? by Wong, Don Wei Wen

“…This essay will thus argue that on the one hand, pragmatism better explains the nature of knowledge than does the view of anti-pragmatism. On the other hand, owing to the epistemically valuable goal of truth acquisition, it is argued that anti-pragmatism or intellectualism as a norm of belief should not be made dispensable.…”

Effect of contextual information in human action recognition in videos by Koh, Hong Wei

“…The accuracy of recognizing human actions under different environments have improved tremendously by making use of contextual information to provide relevant clues which further examines human actions. Owing to the element of huge intra-class disparities, it is challenging to recognize the features of every individual. …”

Gaussian processes for probabilistic estimates of earthquake ground shaking: a 1-D proof-of-concept by Scivier, SA, Nissen-Meyer, T, Koelemeijer, P, Baydin, AG

“…Estimates of seismic wave speeds in the Earth (seismic velocity models) are key input parameters to earthquake simulations for ground motion prediction. Owing to the non-uniqueness of the seismic inverse problem, typically many velocity models exist for any given region. …”

A hidden lethal effect of long microplastic fibres on the coastal copepod Acartia erythraea by Takahashi, Kazutaka, Teh, Jun Chin

“…Our finding implies that a single piece of microplastic fibre remaining at the bottom of coastal zones could continue to kill copepods owing to its non-degradability.…”
