Criteria for Crack Formation and Air Invasion in Drying Colloidal Suspensions by Lilin, Paul, Bischofberger, Irmgard

“…We show that the pressure inside the deposit controls both the onset of crack formation and the onset of air invasion. Two distinct regimes of air invasion occur, which we can account for using the same model that further provides a quantitative criterion for the crossover between the two regimes.…”

A comparative analysis of missing data imputation techniques on sedimentation data by Loh, Wing Son, Ling, Lloyd, Chin, Ren Jie, Lai, Sai Hin, Loo, Kar Kuan, Seah, Choon Sen

“…A comparative analysis on the missing fine sediment data imputation performance was made based on four different techniques, namely the k-Nearest Neighbourhood (k-NN), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Multiple Regression (MR), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN), under the single imputation (SI) and multiple imputation (MI) regimes. Across different missing data proportions (10%-50%), the ANN demonstrated optimal results with consistent performance metrics recorded over both SI and MI regimes. …”

Dynamic friction model for tendon-sheath actuated surgical robots : modelling and stability analysis by Tjahjowidodo, Tegoeh, Lau, Michael Wai Shing, Phee, Soo Jay, Do, T. N.

“…In addition, transition between two regimes is guaranteed to be smooth without using any switching functions and it permits an arbitrary configuration of sheath, i.e. helical and spatial shape. …”

Experimental study on sediment clump by Yang, Yang

“…A group of dense particles released instantaneously into stagnant ambient water is generally studied as thermal-like formation, experiences the classical three regimes of transition, namely the acceleration, thermal and dispersive regimes (Wilkinson & Rahimipour 1992). …”

Structure of mushy layers grown from perfectly and imperfectly conducting boundaries. Part 1. Diffusive solidification by Hitchen, JR, Wells, AJ

“…For an isothermal boundary we characterise different growth regimes depending on a concentration ratio, which can also be viewed as characterising the ratio of composition-dependent freezing point depression versus the temperature difference across the mushy layer. …”

Characterization of artemisinin resistance in plasmodium falciparum by Rocamora, Frances Maureen C.

“…In order to better understand the Artemisinin resistance phenotype, we developed Artemisinin-resistant parasite lines derived from two isogenic clones (6A and 11C) of the 3D7 strain of Plasmodium falciparum using a selection regimen that mimics how parasites interact with the drug in infected patients. …”

Strongly out-of-equilibrium simulations for electron Boltzmann transport equation using modal discontinuous Galerkina approach by Singh, Satyvir, Battiato, Marco

“…Ultimately, these results predict that the modal DG approach is particularly effective in treating the strongly out-of-equilibrium regimes encountered like in ultrafast transport dynamics.…”

Using Sequenom to identify KRAS mutations in an Asian cohort of ovarian mucinous cancer by Tiong, Wen Ning

“…While there are distinct differences between mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer (mEOC) and the other subtypes of EOC, a standard treatment regimen is followed for all EOC histotypes. KRAS mutations have been observed to occur in relatively high frequencies of 50-60% in mEOC but not in other subtypes of EOC in at least three clinical studies. …”

First-line chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer: paclitaxel, cisplatin and the evidence by Sandercock, J, Parmar, MKB, Torri, V

“…Two of the reported trials (GOG-111 and the Intergroup trial) provide clear evidence that cisplatin combined with paclitaxel is a more effective regimen than one using the same dose of cisplatin combined with cyclophosphamide. …”

Enhancing spectrum efficiency through hybrid-duplex systems for aeronautical communications by Tan, Ernest Zheng Hui

“…Through the various performance analysis, the benefits of HBD systems over half-duplex (HD) systems at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regimes are highlighted. The major contributions of this thesis are further elaborated below. …”

Effects of Tip Clearance and Surface Roughness on Small-Scale Turbopump Impeller Performance by Ruecker, Kinjal A. L.

“…The analysis identified two distinct flow regimes based on tip clearance: above 5% of tip clearance, the losses are predominantly due to blade tip leakage flow, whereas below this threshold, losses are governed by both secondary flow and blade tip leakage flow. …”

“…By extensive parametric control of average power (10–120 mW), pulse repetition rate (1–500 kHz) and scan speed (1–100 mm/s) in FsLDW, ultra-thin micro-optics were patterned at three patterning regimes: non-thermal photoreduction regime, thermal photoreduction regime, and ablation regime. …”
