Locating surface cracks and static objects on 2D structures using NDT scanning techniques by Cheang, Clarence Jing Loong

“…Piezoelectric actuators and sensors were used to propagate waves on the host structure. EMI was used to find out suitable frequency of input Lamb waves for determining the discontinuity in the structure as well as when combined with the Lamb waves, resulted in complementary nature which were very effective in load detection. …”

The emergence of compositional grammars in artificial codes by Hong, Fuhai, Lim, Wooyoung, Zhao, Xiaojian

“…In a communication game with no conflict of interest, the sender sends a message that is an arbitrary string from available symbols with no prior meaning to indicate an abstract geometrical figure to the receiver. We find strong evidence from the laboratory for the emergence of compositional grammars in the subjects' common codes that facilitate learning efficiency. …”

At your service! The role of tax havens in international trade with services by Hebous, S, Johannesen, N

“…The analysis employs a unique firm-level dataset with detailed information about&nbsp;service trade&nbsp;and foreign affiliates for virtually all&nbsp;multinational firms&nbsp;in Germany. We find patterns consistent with profit shifting in service categories such as&nbsp;intellectual property&nbsp;(patents and trademarks),&nbsp;<em>headquarter services</em>(administration, management and advertizing),&nbsp;<em>information services</em>(data processing and storage) and&nbsp;financial services&nbsp;(investment, lending and money management). …”

Winner–loser plant trait replacements in human-modified tropical forests by Pinho, BX, Melo, FPL, ter Braak, CJF, Bauman, D, Maréchaux, I, Tabarelli, M, Benchimol, M, Arroyo-Rodriguez, V, Santos, BA, Hawes, JE, Berenguer, E, Ferreira, J, Silveira, JM, Peres, CA, Rocha‐Santos, L, Souza, FC, Gonçalves-Souza, T, Mariano-Neto, E, Faria, D, Barlow, J

“…Combining floristic and functional trait data for 1,207 tree species across 271 forest plots, we find that forest loss consistently caused an increased dominance of low-density woods and small seeds dispersed by endozoochory (winner traits) and the loss of distinctive traits, such as extremely dense woods and large seeds dispersed by synzoochory (loser traits). …”
