Power generation employing a thermoelectric generator by Ginju Rose George

“…Thermoelectric generators are all solid–state devices and unlike traditional dynamic heat engines, they contain no moving parts and are completely silent. Due to the low electric power output over heat input, thermoelectric generators are not commercially viable. …”

Exploring the effect of cross-modal perceptions, creativity and experience on bodily sensations, with a focus on Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) by Wong, Lexie Li Lin

“…This study aimed to find out how ASMR works in terms of whether people experience tingling sensations when exposed to canonical ASMR stimuli, as well as which parts of their bodies they experience it in. In addition, the study aimed to investigate the role of expectations in the experience of ASMR-type sensations, by giving participants different information before being exposed to ASMR stimuli. …”

Low power motion tracking wireless node for IoT applications by Wijaya, Davin

“…Multiple sensors are used to achieve higher accuracy or to calculate orientation of rotating body parts. Sensors can send data when requested by the Raspberry Pi, or can be sent automatically by the sensor to the Raspberry Pi whenever movement is detected, if notification is enabled. …”

Reading the transformation: the relationship between literature and territory in contemporary Veneto by Frezzato, E

“…</p> <p>Developed from an interest in the literary tradition of Veneto and in the theme of landscape and territory representation in literature, this thesis is comprised of two parts: the first one is dedicated to tracing the theoretical, historical, and literary coordinates that define the scope and frame of reference for the thesis; the second one conducts an in-depth analysis of the context in which the works of Carlotto and Paolini are situated. …”

Tracking people by learning their appearance by Ramanan, D, Forsyth, DA, Zisserman, A

“…We develop two algorithms that build models; one bottom-up approach groups together candidate body parts found throughout a sequence. We also describe a top-down approach that automatically builds people-models by detecting convenient key poses within a sequence. …”

4D printable thermally stimulated (meth)acrylate shape memory polymers with tailorable shape recovery force for vat photopolymerization by Ng, Chin Siang

“…4D printing combines additive manufacturing and smart materials to produce dynamic parts. Using time as the 4th dimension, these 4D printed parts can change their properties when triggered with an external stimulus. …”

Study on mechanism and influential factors of progressive collapse resistance of base-isolated structure by Bao, Chao, Zhang, Yuhang, Lv, Dahai, Wang, Huxiang, Ma, Xiaotong, Cao, Jixing, Lim, Kar Sing

“…In the case of side isolation bearing failure, due to the lack of sufficient lateral restraint, the capacity was significantly lower than other conditions, which were more likely to cause partly collapse. Therefore, setting more transfer paths to improve the structure’s resistance to progressive collapses was necessary. …”

Quality of service profiling by Misailovic, Sasa, Sidiroglou, Stylianos, Hoffmann, Henry Christian, Rinard, Martin C.

“…In contrast to standard profilers, which simply identify time-consuming parts of the computation, a quality of service profiler is designed to identify subcomputations that can be replaced with new (and potentially less accurate) subcomputations that deliver significantly increased performance in return for acceptably small quality of service losses. …”

Sugar-modified G-quadruplexes : effects of LNA-, 2'F-RNA- and 2'F-ANA-guanosine chemistries on G-quadruplex structure and stability by Phan, Anh Tuân, Li, Zhe, Lech, Christopher Jacques

“…Our results are summarized in two parts: (I) Generally, LNAG substitutions into ‘anti’ position guanines within a guanine-tetrad lead to a more stable G-quadruplex, while substitutions into ‘syn’ positions disrupt the native G-quadruplex conformation. …”

Looting the LUTs : FPGA optimization of AES and AES-like ciphers for authenticated encryption by Khairallah, Mustafa, Chattopadhyay, Anupam, Peyrin, Thomas

“…Additionally, we show that using FPGA technology mapping instead of logic optimization, the area of both the linear and non linear parts of the round function of several AES-like primitives can be reduced, without affecting the run-time performance. …”
