Kansei evaluation and clustering in emotional design by Ng, Kassyn.

“…A case study was done to validate the proposed methodology and a fair comparison of the results with an existing method was made to evaluate the robustness of the proposed methodology. 10 Kansei tags were produced for 32 Kansei words as opposed to only 8 Kansei tags using the existing method. The disparity was mainly due to the different methods used to determine the final number of clusters. …”

Effects of rapid thermal annealing on structural, magnetic and optical properties of Ni-doped ZnO thin films by Zhao, Xing, Liu, Erjia, Ramanujan, Raju Vijayaraghavan, Chen, Jingsheng

“…An even higher Ms value was observed in the film annealed in Ar at 800 °C (Ms = 0.055 μB/Ni) compared to that at 600 °C mainly due to the diffusion of Ni. The ultraviolet emission of the Ni-doped ZnO thin film was restored during annealing in Ar at 800 °C, which was also attributed to the diffusion of Ni.…”
