Timber-framed building damage from tephra fall and lahar : 2015 Calbuco eruption, Chile by Hayes, Josh L., Calderón B., Rodrigo, Deligne, Natalia I., Jenkins, Susanna F., Leonard, Graham S., McSporran, Ame M., Williams, George Thomas, Wilson, Thomas M.

“…The 419 buildings for which we did not assign a damage state either had too little information or fell outside of tephra and/or lahar hazard zones. The minimum tephra thickness isopach band that caused complete collapse was 10 to 15 cm (dry deposit loading ~1 to 1.6 kN m−2, saturated deposit loading 1.6 to 2.4 kN m−2), but most commonly (55% of tephra exposed DS5 houses n = 11), this occurred at 15 to 30 cm (dry deposit loading ~1.5 to 3.3 kN m−2, saturated deposit loading 2.4 to 4.8 kN m−2). …”

Exploring enhanced syngas production via the catalytic performance of metal-doped X-Ni/CeO2 (X = Zr, La, Sr) in the dry reforming of methane by Manan, Wan Nabilah, Wan Isahak, Wan Nor Roslam, Yaakob, Zahira, Samidin, Salma, Ahmad, Khairul Naim, Latif, Mohd Nor, Aldoghachi, Ali Faris, Taufiq-Yap, Yun Hin

“…FESEM results showed the promoted catalysts (Zr, La, Sr) produce large pores to facilitate reactant diffusion, with zirconia specifically creating a spiderweb morphology. …”

3D content recovery and complexity reduction by Tan, Cheen Hau

“…To alleviate this problem, we exploit the fact that human bones are rigid and constrain inter-joint distances of connected joints. …”

The influence of polarisation on the behaviour of anions within ion channels and nanopores by Phan, LX

“…Whilst cation channels have been studied in great depth, general mechanisms underlying anion selectivity and permeation within such pores remain unclear. Electronic polarisation arises from the deformation of electronic shells. …”

Jurisdictional approaches to high conservation value area designation using regulatory instruments: an Indonesian pilot project by Padmanaba, Michael, Sloan, Sean, Watts, John D., Irawan, Silvia, Lee, Janice Ser Huay, Pasaribu, Katryn N., Wiratama, Cokorda Gde Wisnu, Watson, Ellen, Utami, Nadia Putri

“…Finally, some three-quarters of all HCV areas and higher-confidence HCV areas designated by the ECCA fell outside of the exclusive administrative authority of the district government, being confined to agricultural zones. In politically-decentralised Indonesia, jurisdictional HCV area management would therefore be narrowly confined to agricultural areas, or cooperation between district, provincial, and central governments would be essential to the protection of HCV areas generally across districts.…”

Assessing the impact of a sport for development and peace intervention on the mental and physical health of adolescents in Mullaitivu, Sri Lanka by Hamilton, A

“…This thesis is a cautionary tale that highlights the complexity of evaluation in post-conflict zones and the relationships required to sustain it.…”

Self-learning shape recognition in medical images by Ma, Jingting

“…Experiments are conducted using two representative datasets, a set of 30 public CT kidneys and a set of 49 internal MRI ankle bones. Embedded into an existing segmentation framework, experimental results show that SSM built with the proposed RKPCA outperforms the state-of-the-art modeling techniques in terms of model quality and segmentation accuracy. …”

Cryogelation of human hair keratins by Chua, Huei Min

“…Microarchitecture analysis revealed that FT cycling rendered a change from sheet-like lamellae in FT0 sponges to interconnected polygonal pores in freeze-thawed sponges. Moreover, differences in physical properties engendered by FT cycling were found to influence material performance such as the degradation rate and cellular response. …”

Printing of functional materials in 2D and 3D structures by Halevi, Oded

“…Zeolites and MOFs are usually crystalline, and exhibit high periodic molecular order, which leads to the constant and defined pores sizes and contributes to their functionality. …”
