Hyperbolic volume estimates via train tracks by De Capua, A

“…However, we can apply their line of proof only after some manipulation of the splitting sequence: a rearrangement, changing the order the elementary moves are performed in, so that the ones producing Dehn twists are brought together; and then an untwisting, which suppresses the majority of these latter moves to give a new sequence, which does not end with the same track as before, but does not include any portion that is almost stationary in the pants graph. …”

Glorious autarky? Foreign resources and the British fiscal-military state, 1688-1815 by Graham, A

“…Easy access to these resources enabled ministers to retain a bare-bones military and naval establishments in peacetime and then, in wartime, to ‘surge’ the state by using off- the-shelf foreign military labour to hold the line while British forces were recruited. Relying upon cheap foreign money enabled the British state to hold down taxation and expensive borrowing. …”

Oil palm smallholder's income and sustainable development goals (SDGs) achievement in Peninsular Malaysia by Applanaidu, Shri Devi, Abidin, Norhaslinda Zainal, Mustapha, Mukhtar, Abdullahi Baba, Mohammed, Joseph, Viandrito

“…The analysis showed that all the oil palm smallholders in Peninsular Malaysia have a daily average income far above the poverty line. Johor has the highest daily average income in Peninsular Malaysia, therefore, it is easy for the oil palm smallholders in Johor to achieve SDG 1, SDG 2, SDG 3, SDG 5 and SDG 8 faster than the rest of the oil palm smallholders in Pahang, Selangor and Kelantan with lower average daily incomes…”

Research on basic mechanical properties of different modulus alkaline excited ECC by Che, Jialing, Yang, Renze, Wang, Jun, Liu, Haifeng, Hu, Yun xiang, Doh, Shu Ing

“…The effect of the alkali activator modulus on the mechanical properties and microstructure of two types of fiber-reinforced engineering cementitious composites (alkali-excited ECC) with desert sand as fine aggregate was studied. The alkali activator was prepared by a certain proportion of NaOH and sodium silicate mixture, and the mechanical performance indexes were used for analysis, including compressive/tensile/flexural strength, Poisson's ratio and elastic modulus, flexural toughness ratio and energy performance index (PSH). …”

What the visual system can learn from the non-dominant hand: The effect of graphomotor engagement on visual discrimination by Ben-Ami, Shlomit, Buaron, Batel, Yaron, Ori, Keane, Kyle, Sun, Virginia H., Phillips, Flip, Friedman, Jason, Sinha, Pawan, Mukamel, Roy

“…However, existing studies have emphasized the dominant hand, which is superiorly dexterous in fine-motor movements. This near-exclusive focus prompts the inquiry of whether the observed perceptual facilitation is a general characteristic of the motor system, or specific to pathways controlling the skilled over-trained dominant hand. …”

Towards Spatially Varying Gloss Reproduction for 3D Printing by Piovarci, Michal, Foshey, Michael, Babaei, Vahid, Rusinkiewicz, Szymon, Matusik, Wojciech, Didyk, Piotr

“…The main difficulty in automating this process lies in the physical properties of the varnishes which owe their appearance to a high concentration of large particles and as such, they cannot be easily deposited with current 3D color printers. As a result, fine-grained control of gloss properties using today's 3D printing technologies is limited in terms of both spatial resolution and the range of achievable gloss. …”
