Boundary element methods for axisymmetric heat conduction and thermoelastic deformations in nonhomogeneous solids by Yun, Bao Ing

“…Unlike the real boundary element approach for axisymmetric problems, the complex variable approach does not require the evaluation of complicated fundamental solutions involving elliptic integrals. To check the validity of all the boundary element procedures, they are applied to solve specific problems with known analytical solutions. …”

Encoding and decoding of serially concatenated codes for data storage systems by Yin, Ke.

“…The outer code of the SCC can be a high-rate convolutional code, or a low-density parity-check (LDPC) code; while the inner code normally takes the form of the accumulate code or a high-rate recursive convolutional code (RSC). …”

Unveiling the future of budget hotels in Singapore by Chua, Hwee Lian, Kew, Wong Yip, Soh, Wee Li

“…These include using Porter's five forces model to define the external environment in which budget hotels operate and a SWOT analysis to function as an internal check. The findings of this study point towards a shortage of budget hotels that is likely to persist till 1995. …”

Evaluation and fabrication of damaged composite material using non-destructive testing by Lai, Abigail Jang Wai

“…Since composites are extensively employed in many areas, it is important to determine the existence of surface and sub-surface defects before production and during regular maintenance checks. As time goes on, wear and tear occur to a material. …”

Experiences, perceptions and ethical considerations of the malaria infection study in Thailand by Naemiratch, B, Kulpijit, N, Ruangkajorn, S, Day, NPJ, Prachumsri, J, Cheah, PY

“…We found that although compensation was a motivation for participation, this was secondary to it being beneficial to self (health checks; link to health networks; building merit) and others (medical research contribution; altruism). …”

The effects of angiotensin-receptor blockade on mood and vigilance behaviour in a gamified foraging task by Morse, L

“…We therefore suggest that losartan may act anxiolytically to reduce threat-related worries and increase vigilant checking behaviours. This supports suggestions that losartan may be useful as an adjunct to exposure therapy, acting synergistically to improve clinical outcomes. …”

Three essays on frictions of trade by Li, W

“…The analysis is based on an adapted gravity model with several alternative specifications for robustness checks. The result suggests that improvements on the road network lead to trade expansion on both intensive and extensive margins, but the effects vary across the regions. …”

Practice of CSFs for the Pre-Development Process in New Product Innovation Processes at SMEs: Questionnaire Development by Abu, Noor Hidayah, Deros, B.M., Abd Wahab, Dzuraidah, Ab Rahman, Mohd Nizam

“…After that the questionnaire was piloted at 55 food and beverage manufacturing SMEs to check its reliability by using Cronbach’s alpha value. …”

Atherogenesis and plaque rupture, surface/interface-related phenomena by Siegel, G., Berkholz, J., Klüßendorf, D., Knosalla, C., Zakrzewicz, A., Ermilov, E., Malmsten, M., Lindman, Bjorn

“…Since NFκB is inhibited by one reaction strand in this model and inhibits itself collagen and proteoglycan synthesis in the fibrous cap of the plaque, this double check (disinhibition) causes a stabilization of the fibrous cap through a specially strong collagen and proteoglycan production, which in addition is supported by circulating TGFβ. …”

Cooperative collision avoidance in multirobot systems using fuzzy rules and velocity obstacles by Tang, Wenbing, Zhou, Yuan, Zhang, Tianwei, Liu, Yang, Liu, Jing, Ding, Zuohua

“…In detail, at any time instant, a robot checks the robots that it may collide with and retrieves the most dangerous robot in each sector based on the predicted collision time; then, the robot generates its velocity in real-time via fuzzy inference and VO-based fine-tuning. …”
