Singapore Shipping Trust. by Goh, Wei Qin., Lee, Suat Cheng., Tan, Li Ping.

“…We also explore the shipping trusts’ financial performance through comparison with the Singapore market, as well as with Singapore REITs, Singapore shipping stocks and their foreign peers. Results from CAPM show presence of risk-adjusted returns for the equal-weighted shipping trust portfolio in the before-subprime period, indicating the attractiveness of shipping trusts during better economic conditions. …”

Non-slipping adhesive contact between dissimilar elastic solids under normal and tangential loads by Ma, L, Chen, Y, Hills, DA

“…Specifically, (i) the shear-off force of adhesive contact is proposed; (ii) the effect of tangential load on the puff-off force is presented; (iii) the influence of the normal load on the shear-off force is obtained; (iv) in the context of these results, the nominal static friction coefficient is defined and analyzed, and it is shown that the static friction coefficient is a function of external normal load, which can well explain some experimental results in the literature. …”

Durability of woven composite structures by Satrio Wicaksono

“…There are evidences showing that accelerated testing methodology cannot be used to predict the shear fatigue strength at arbitrary load ratio but can be used to predict the shear fatigue strength at arbitrary temperature and zero load ratio. …”

Evaluation of process requirements for room temperature direct copper bonding by Chen, Qiang.

“…In this thesis, by coating the copper surface with a self assembled monolayer of alkanethiol prior to bonding, Cu joints can be successfully formed at room temperature in ambient environment, yielding joint shear strength up to 60MPa. Copper bond shear strength of 15 MPa is achieved even at 50MPa at 25°C with copper coated with C18. …”

Cognitive aspects of generalised anxiety disorder in adolescents: exploring intolerance of uncertainty, cognitive avoidance, and positive beliefs about worry by Shipp, LR, Leigh, E, Laverton, A, Percy, R, Waite, P

“…Adolescents with GAD reported significantly higher intolerance of uncertainty and positive beliefs about worry relative to their peers with other anxiety diagnoses, whilst levels of cognitive avoidance did not differ significantly. …”

British Muslim youth and religious fundamentalism: a quantitative investigation by Kashyap, R, Lewis, VA

“…We use new survey data to empirically examine how Muslim youth differ from older Muslims and non-Muslim British peers on religiosity, Islam-specific and broader social attitudes. …”

Suction and strength of unsaturated soils by Bulolo, Sam

“…The current osmotic technique of controlling matric suction was improved using reverse osmosis membrane and sodium chloride solutions. New shear strength equation incorporating suction stress that took into account the availability of data for constant suction and constant water content direct shear tests was proposed. …”

‘On-demand’ soft tissue adhesives by Mogal, Vishal Tukaram

“…When compared to non-treated polyester thin films, plasma intensity could give rise to a ~ 6-fold (for 100 W, 5 min.) increase in shear adhesion strength (157 ± 24 mN/cm2). Shear adhesion was 5-fold higher than L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine-based mussel adhesives tested on similar biomaterials. …”
