Design and 3D printing of reconfigurable structures by Teo, Ee Hian

“…The structure is made up of single modular units being repeatedly fixed together, this leads to the structure to isolate single modular units that are damaged, allowing it to be easily pin-pointed and replaced by fabricating another similar single unit, this cut cost as the structure can be salvaged by replacing a single unit instead of the whole structure.…”

Developing a tongue coating index for Traditional Chinese Medicine by Choy, Meng Xuan

“…Approach 1, where L-a-b values of each tongue region were compared with those of the tongue tip, and Approach 2, where L-a-b values of each tongue region were compared with those of the ideal tongue color (Pink). Results obtained show that Approach 1 was more consistent with visual perception of post-corrected tongue images in the database. …”

Desalination : discharging brine into coastal waters by Cher, Leo Wei Kwang.

“…Concentrated brine is a solution that has a higher density than seawater, thus causing them to be negatively buoyant. The brine tends to sink and spread along the seabed. Therefore, it is vital to find the techniques to enhance mixing of brine in the “allocated impact zone” thus preventing the spread of high salinity out of this region. …”

Nitrogen-decorated carbon dots (NCDs) for thermally conductive smart windows by Tan, Frankie Ting Feng

“…The heat will diffuse along the glass panel, towards the heat sink located at the edges. This will lead to a reduction in the cross-sectional conductive heat transfer which will decrease the amount of heat entering from the outside to the inside surface of the window glass panel. …”

Integral modelling of brine discharge in coastal waters by Teo, Wei Qiang.

“…The brine discharge is considered a negatively buoyant jet compared to the ambient water because it is heavier and thus will sink to the sea bed. There had been numerous researches on positively buoyant jet in history but only few on negatively buoyant jet. …”

Negative density dependence promotes persistence of a globally rare yet locally abundant plant species Oenothera coloradensis by Stears, AE, Heidel, B, Paniw, M, Salguero-Gómez, R, Laughlin, DC

“…Consequently, several mechanisms have been proposed to explain their persistence, including negative density dependence, demographic compensation, vital rate buffering, asynchronous responses of subpopulations to environmental heterogeneity, and fine-scale source-sink dynamics. Persistence of seeds in a seed bank, which is often ignored in models of population dynamics, can also buffer small populations against collapse. …”
