Short-term load forecasting by wavelet transform and evolutionary extreme learning machine by Li, Song, Wang, Peng, Goel, Lalit

“…This paper proposes a novel short-term load forecasting (STLF) method based on wavelet transform, extreme learning machine (ELM) and modified artificial bee colony (MABC) algorithm. The wavelet transform is used to decompose the load series for capturing the complicated features at different frequencies. …”

Anomalous high-magnetic field electronic state of the nematic superconductors FeSe 1 − x S x by Bristow, M, Reiss, P, Haghighirad, A, Zajicek, Z, Singh, S, Wolf, T, Graf, D, Knafo, W, McCollam, A, Coldea, A

“…We find that the nematic state is dominated by a linear resistivity at low temperatures that evolves towards Fermi-liquid behavior, depending on the composition x and the impurity level. Near the nematic end point, we find an extended temperature regime with ∼ T 1.5 resistivity, different from the behavior found near an antiferromagnetic critical point. …”

Polariton condensate transistor switch by Liew, Timothy Chi Hin, Gao, T., Eldridge, P. S., Tsintzos, S. I., Stavrinidis, G., Deligeorgis, G., Hatzopoulos, Z., Savvidis, P. G.

“…A polariton condensate transistor switch is realized through optical excitation of a microcavity ridge with two beams. The ballistically ejected polaritons from a condensate formed at the source are gated using the 20 times weaker second beam to switch on and off the flux of polaritons. …”

Mechanics of fracture and flexure in Antarctic ice sheets and ice shelves by Zhang, H

“…</p> <br> <p>In Chapter 5, I focus on calving and flexure near the shelf edge. By using a viscoelastic flexure model, I investigate different mechanisms that cause flexure near the calving front, and how the flexure evolves due to viscous creep and leads to calving events.…”

Community concerns on migrant labour settlement issues in Malaysia by Izhar, Asma Idayu, Choong, Weng Wai

“…Although the authorities did come out with measures by segregating the migrant labours from the locals’ neighbourhood, the NIMBY phenomenon still remain, in which the locals are against the development of the said settlements near to their neighbourhood. In accessing the concerns that perceived by the locals, literature review is conducted to examine the locals’ acceptance towards the migrant labour’s presence near their neighbourhood is reviewed. …”
