Competition law and economic inequality by Zac, A

“…However, the specific ways and mechanisms through which a competition law regime might interact with economic inequality remain largely unexplored from an empirical perspective. …”

At the frontiers between penal and psy discourses: judicial constructions of the mentally dis/ordered defendant in Hong Kong sentencing judgments by Chiu, TCU

“…While existing literature on the compulsory mental health regime in Hong Kong has found judges to defer, with little critical scrutiny, to medical professional opinion in finding mental incapacity and disorder, this thesis is the first to explore whether this judicial reliance on the clinical gaze extends to decision-making about sentencing in criminal law.…”

Human nature, after all: affective realism in Russian foreign policy by Edinger, H

“…References to security threats, for example, could be indicative of more deeply felt ontological anxieties or officials’ visceral fear over regime stability and their personal safety. Understanding affective dynamics, and the action tendencies they promote, can improve explanations of foreign policy in the Russian case and potentially others.…”

Autoimmune encephalitis by Irani, SR

“…The clinical-serologic picture guides the immunotherapy regime and offers valuable prognostic information. …”

Laboratory study of the enhanced wave-induced drift of large rectangular floating objects by Xiao, Q, McAllister, ML, Adcock, TAA, van den Bremer, T

“…Small and large objects exhibited fundamentally different drift behaviour at high compared to low wave steepness, with a regime shift observed at a certain size and wave steepness. …”

Amino Acid Composition of Developing Larval Freshwater Prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii by Roustaian, Paymon, Kamarudin, Mohd Salleh, Omar, Hishamuddin, Saad, Che Roos, Ahmad, Mansor

“…The larvae obtained from several females were stocked into three 250-L tanks at a density of 30 larvae/L. The feeding regime consisted of newly hatched Anemia nauplii and egg custard containing 5% cod liver oil. …”

Oncofetal HMGA2 attenuates genotoxic damage induced by topoisomerase II target compounds through the regulation of local DNA topology by Ahmed, Syed Moiz, Dröge, Peter

“…We therefore strongly argue for the future implementation of trials of HMGA2 expression profiling to stratify patients before finalizing clinical treatment regimes…”

Sages, smokers, sojourners : the religion of the void in China and Southeast Asia by Soh, Esmond Chuah Meng

“…The Zhenkongjiao 真空教, alias the Great Way Within Emptiness 空中大道, refers to a Chinese religious movement whose emergence in twentieth-century southeast China and Southeast Asia was characterized by its rehabilitation of opium-addicts with meditation regimes and tea-drinking rituals. This thesis discusses the institutions, beliefs, and the rituals of the Zhenkongjiao in East and Southeast Asia throughout the twentieth- and twenty-first centuries. …”

Computation fluid dynamics on drag reduction II by Zang, Bin

“…Lastly, the grid size and RANS models are subjected to further verification to ensure the observations and calculations are indeed trustworthy and relatively accurate by studying skin friction coefficient and comparing to empirical formula; also by simulating more complex dimpled flow with different Reynolds number regimes. The result establishes agreements in friction coefficient while the simulation of complex flow doe s not. …”

Microfluidic studies on flow manipulation to assist metastasis research by Tran, Duc Quang

“…Our findings demonstrate that the cellular aggregate behaves under the interstitial flow following two regimes: poroelasticity and solid plasticity, which are separated at a transient point, corresponding to fracture happened inside the cellular aggregate. …”

Triggering voltage for post-breakdown random telegraph noise in HfLaO dielectric metal gate metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors and its reliability implications by Liu, W. H., Pey, Kin Leong, Raghavan, Nagarajan, Wu, X., Bosman, Michel

“…We report a triggering voltage Vtrig for observing gate leakage current (Ig) random telegraph noise (RTN) in the post-breakdown regime of HfLaO dielectric metal gate stacks. Vtrig, the onset voltage to observe RTN in degraded dielectrics, is highly dependent on breakdown hardness, which is controlled by the leakage current compliance (Igl). …”

Raman spectroscopy of atomically thin two-dimensional magnetic iron phosphorus trisulfide (FePS3) crystals by Wang, Xingzhi, Du, Kezhao, Liu, Fredrik Yu Yang, Hu, Peng, Zhang, Jun, Zhang, Qing, Owen, Samuel Man Hon, Lu, Xin, Gan, Chee Kwan, Sengupta, Pinaki, Kloc, Christian, Xiong, Qihua

“…Layer-number and temperature dependent Raman spectroscopy suggests a magnetic persistence in FePS3 even down to monolayer regime through the spin–phonon coupling, while the Néel temperature decreases from 117 K in bulk to 104 K in monolayer sample. …”

Superior memory efficiency of quantum devices for the simulation of continuous-time stochastic processes by Elliott, Thomas Joseph, Gu, Mile

“…However, quantum machines can require less information about the past than even their optimal classical counterparts to simulate the future of discrete-time processes, and we demonstrate that this advantage extends to the continuous-time regime. Moreover, we show that this reduction in the memory requirement can be unboundedly large, allowing for arbitrary precision even with a finite quantum memory. …”

History dependence of the microstructure on time-dependent deformation during in-situ cooling of a nickel-based single-crystal superalloy by Panwisawas, Chinnapat, D’Souza, Neil, Collins, David M., Bhowmik, Ayan, Roebuck, Bryan

“…Time-dependent plastic deformation through stress relaxation and creep deformation during in-situ cooling of the as-cast single-crystal superalloy CMSX-4® has been studied via neutron diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, electro-thermal miniature testing, and analytical modeling across two temperature regimes. Between 1000 °C and 900 °C, stress relaxation prevails and gives rise to softening as evidenced by a decreased dislocation density and the presence of long segment stacking faults in γ phase. …”

Generalized sub–Schawlow-Townes laser linewidths via material dispersion by Pillay, Jason Cornelius, Natsume, Yuki, Stone, A. Douglas, Chong, Y. D.

“…These results for the quantum-limited linewidth are valid even in the regime of strong line pulling and spatial hole burning, where the linewidth cannot be factorized into independent Petermann and bad-cavity factors.…”

Effects of high loading rate on reinforced concrete beams by Fujikake, Kazunori, Adhikary, Satadru Das, Li, Bing

“…To supplement the limited literature in this field, 24 RC beams were tested under four different loading rates ranging from slow (4 × 10–4 m/s) to fast (2 m/s) to cover the wide range of loading scenarios (quasi-static, earthquakes, and impact regime). Comparative analyses of RC beams under these varying loading rates highlighted several key aspects of their dynamic behavior.…”
