Design rationale for stimuli-responsive, semi-interpenetrating polymer network hydrogels–a quantitative approach by Gupta, Nupur, Liang, Yen Nan, Lim, Jacob Song Kiat, Hu, Xiao

“…Herein, for the first time, by preparing a series of model semi‐IPN hydrogels based on thermally responsive poly (N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) network and linear poly(sodium acrylate) (PSA), a systematic and quantitative study concerning linear polymer chain retention and swelling/deswelling kinetics is reported. The study shows that PSA retention is significantly affected not only by PSA molecular weight and concentration, but also by polymerization temperature, which could be linked to homogeneity and internal morphology of the hydrogel. …”

Improvement of uniformity of biocemented sand column using CH₃COOH-buffered one-phase-low-pH injection method by Yang, Yang, Chu, Jian, Liu, Hanlong, Cheng, Liang

“…The uniformity of MICP-treated 1-m and 2-m sand columns was evaluated by comparing the unconfined compressive strengths and the calcium carbonate contents measured at different locations along the sand columns. The test results show that the proposed method is much more effective in improving the uniformity of the MICP treatment though a significant increase in the lag duration, given the other conditions the same.…”

Technological opportunities and challenges for Singapore logistics firm (sea perspective) by Tan, Bronessa Yan Ning

“…The literature review has identified that opportunities such as the call for efficiency and sustainability were giving rise to enabling technological solutions including drone deliveries and Additive Manufacturing (AM), but wider adoption scale by the industry has been hindered due to factors like digital trust and digital immaturity. Given that the industry has been conservative in terms of technological adoption, many proven technological solutions used by other digitally advanced industries are available to be implemented. …”
