Experimental investigation into load settlement characteristics of piled rafts in sand by Leong, Hazel Xueling.

“…Studies by many notable researchers in the years to come suggest that the most effective combinations of piles and raft happens when all the initial loading can be borne with the raft’s bearing capacity alone. The role of the piles was solely to reduce the excessive settlement experienced by the plain raft.…”

Dense/porous bioceramic composites by Hu, Yifei

“…The pores were designed for bone ingrowth, whereas the graded pores and the dense cores were introduced for load bearing capability. For bone ingrowth, the porous structures must have a high porosity, a high interconnectivity, and a suitable pore size.…”

Stereoselective cyclisation cascades mediated by carbon electrophiles to access novel polycyclic scaffolds by Aynetdinova, DA

“…The cation-initiated polyene cyclisation to form carbocyclic rings, as well as heterocyclisation to form novel lactones, has been explored. High levels of diastereoselectivity in setting up new stereocentres during the cyclisation were achieved. …”

5G mobile wireless access and digital channeling with RF over fiber for long-haul 64-QAM communication by Al Noor, Mazin, Virdee, Bal Singh, Ouazzane, Karim, Mariyanayagam, Dion, Benetatos, Harry, Hubenova, Svetla

“…The optical receiver is shown to have a sensitivity of -28.3 dBm for a bit-error rate (BER) of 10−9. These results demonstrate the viability of the proposed RFoF architecture in providing significant improvement in the bit rate over a transmission distance.…”

Mechanics of Three-Dimensional Micro-Architected Interpenetrating Phase Composites by Chen, Andrew Y.

“…We show that independent of the material system, the presence of a load-bearing matrix distributes the stress in the composite, contributing to a high-strength, globally stretchingdominated failure behavior, regardless of nodal connectivity. …”

What is to reproduce? On the overlap, development, and persistence account of reproduction by Palacios-González, C

“…Her account seems able to answer the question of whether reproduction takes place, and who reproduces, when we employ biotechnologies that bear little to no resemblance to naturally occurring human sexual reproduction. …”

Prosopanche: a remarkable genus of parasitic plants by Hatt, SA, Cameron, DD, Grace, OM, Rocamundi, N, Cocucci, AA, Martel, C, Thorogood, CJ

“…Growing almost entirely underground with a complete lack of leaves, plants of Prosopanche bear more resemblance to fungi than plants and have many remarkable aspects to their life history and ecology that require further investigation. …”

Another philosophical look at twistor theory by Gajic, G, Lilani, N, Read, J

“…In this article, we (a) present for philosophers an introduction to twistor theory, (b) consider how the spacetime–twistor correspondence interacts with the philosophical literature on theoretical equivalence, and (c) explore the bearing which twistor theory might have on philosophical issues such as the status of dynamics, the geometrisation of physics, spacetime ontology, the emergence of spacetime, and symmetry-to-reality inferences. …”

A field study on using soybean waste-derived superabsorbent hydrogel to enhance growth of vegetables by Zhu, Jingling, Suhaimi, Fadhlina, Lim, Jing Ying, Gao, Zhengyang, Swarup, Sanjay, Loh, Chiang Shiong, Li, Jun, Ong, Choon Nam, Tan, Wee Kee

“…To achieve this, we developed an okara-derived hydrogel (Ok-PAA; OP) from by-products of bean curd and soybean milk production. We incorporated OP into soil and assessed the growth performance of leafy vegetables. …”
