Control of cylinder wake using oscillatory morphing surface by Zeng, Lingwei, New, Tze How, Tang, Hui

“…A cylinder of diameter 36 mm was placed in 0.09 m/s water flow, resulting in the Reynolds number 3240 and the vortex shedding frequency around 0.5 Hz. The cylinder's morphing surface oscillated at four different frequencies, i.e., 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 Hz. …”

Coupled acoustic resonator systems with novel acoustic properties by Yang, Yahui

“…Then, the lattice was extended to three-dimensional and a third-order topological insulator on an anisotropic diamond lattice was implemented, leading to topological corner states at two corners of a rhombohedron-like sample. The work in this thesis has theoretically studied and experimentally investigated topological related novel properties in acoustic resonator systems, ranging from the strain field induced magnetic-like effects, to the bulk polarization. …”

Masculinities and disengagement from jihadi networks: the case of indonesian militant islamists by Duriesmith, David, Noor Huda Ismail

“…This paper explores the role of masculinities in shaping men’s paths out of jihadi networks. Based on life history research with Indonesian former militant Islamist we suggest that men’s pathways out of armed groups are defined by negotiating alternate masculinities, which reposition their gendered role in society from those associated with militancy.…”

Solving large-scale planning and deep learning problems by Aung, Aye Phyu Phyu

“…Hence, the primary focus of the research will be on solving problems with large-scale action space as the direct usage of existing small or discrete solutions limits the solution quality and brings less resemblance to the increasingly complex real-life situations. In particular, we approach planning: student counselling problem with large discrete action space and deep learning problem: GAN with continuous action space. …”

Public spaces as the “centre of social struggle”: how do low-wage, unemployed Bangladeshi migrant workers perceive and use public spaces in Singapore? by See, Marilyn

“…Despite the growing importance of urban spatialities and mobilities in this age of transnational migration, considerably less research has examined how migrant workers’ heightened precarity may affect their participation in urban life. As such, this qualitative study draws on primary research to investigate the following: how do low wage, unemployed Bangladeshi migrant workers perceive and use public spaces in Singapore? …”
