Experimental and numerical study of self-locking adaptable inter connection for modular steel structures by Nadeem, Gohar, Safiee, Nor Azizi, Bakar, Nabilah Abu, Karim, Izian Abd, Mohd Nasir, Noor Azline

“…The findings indicated that the gap produced between connection and column under higher displacement was sensitive to the outer bolt and spring pin. This gap could be further reduced by increasing the number of outer bolts and by reducing tolerance between adapter and column walls.…”

Smart home control system design using internet of things based energy harvesting technology by Silalahi, Lukman Medriavin, Indrawan, Muhammad Rafi, Budiyanto, Setiyo, Hanafi, Dirman, Abdul Hamid, Abdul Hamid, Ronaldo, Davit

“…The objective of this research is to provide security for homeowners by facilitating fingerprints and PIN (Personal Identification Numbers) in entering the house, then in the event of a power outage, it activates the function of energy harvesting technology. …”

Enhanced Laplace Pressures for Functional Surfaces: Wicking, Switchability, and Selectivity by Wilke, Kyle L, Song, Youngsup, Lu, Zhengmao, Wang, Evelyn N

“…Moreover, with a water‐hexane mixture system, selective wetting of reentrant structures are demonstrated, that is, water can be selectively wicked or repelled in the presence of hexane, and vice versa. These functionalities are achieved, which would typically require complex chemical coatings, solely using surface structures, thus largely expanding the design space for a wide range of thermofluidic applications.…”

Synthesis of TiO2/FeCo magnetic nanoparticles as a nano-coagulant for removal of fluoride in semiconductor wastewater by Yap, Brendan Ee Herng

“…A total of two batches were synthesised with one having higher Fe concentrations (120723) and vice versa. It was observed that the batch (090723) with lower Fe concentrations displayed no magnetic properties. …”

Fluid to composite structure interaction by Tan, Melvyn Han Xiang.

“…As machines and structures get faster, bigger and more complex, it is important to understand how structural deformation affects fluid flow and vice versa. Through such research, safety of these machines and structures can be greatly improved. …”

Optimisation of changi airport's future air traffic contingency management in extreme haze condition by Lo, Kar Koon

“…The second optimisation model tackles the problem by having an alternate land and take off or a vice versa of the pattern. In addition to support the optimisation models, Chapter 2 reviews the necessary literatures such as flight statistics and wake turbulence in order to understand the various perimeters needed in the study. …”

Electrical characterization of three-dimensional graphene infused polymers by Ho, Roderick Zhan Feng

“…A tactile sensor helps to gauge and measure the amount of force applied to the robot by an object or the environment and vice versa. This capability is not possible through the means of visual sensors alone. …”

The quality/cosmology tension for a post-inflation QCD axion by Lu, Qianshu, Reece, Matthew, Sun, Zhiquan

“…We study several examples, finding that models that solve the quality problem face cosmological problems, and vice versa. This is not a no-go theorem; nonetheless, we argue that it is much more difficult than generally appreciated to find a viable post-inflation QCD axion model. …”

Chasing the city that cannot stop: Exploring transportation and urban co-development in São Paulo’s history by Borges Costa, Adriano, Zegras, P Christopher, Biderman, Ciro

“…In subsequent decades, up until the mid-1970s, mass transit investments are virtually non-existent and road transportation essentially chases urban expansion, not vice versa. Finally, the last four decades reveal a return to “orderly” patterns of road expansion and urbanization but no evidence of mass transit infrastructure’s effects on urbanization or densification. …”

Search for Higgs boson pair production with one associated vector boson in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV by Hayrapetyan, A., Tumasyan, A., Adam, W., Andrejkovic, J. W., Bergauer, T., Chatterjee, S., Damanakis, K., Dragicevic, M., Escalante Del Valle, A., Hussain, P. S., Jeitler, M., Krammer, N., Liko, D., Mikulec, I., Schieck, J., Schöfbeck, R., Schwarz, D.

“…Constraints are also set on the modifiers of the Higgs boson trilinear self-coupling, kλ, assuming k2V = 1, and vice versa on the coupling of two Higgs bosons with two vector bosons, k2V. …”

Market-Based and Policy-Based Conditional Demand Forecaster for Airline Revenue Management by Lu, Yuxuan

“…The estimation of the total market demand allows the forecasting airline to anticipate additional demand when it offers lower fare quotes than its competitors and vice versa; the prediction of a competitor’s policy enables the revision of expected passenger sell-up probabilities to higher fares, conditioned on competitive influences and assumed passenger choice behaviors. …”

Characteristics of scanning curves of two soils by Tami, Denny, Rahardjo, Harianto, Leong, Eng Choon

“…During the transition period, over which the scanning curve moved from the primary drying curve to the primary wetting curve (or vice versa), the path of the scanning curve had a relatively flat slope as compared to the slope of the primary curves, and sometimes it was almost horizontal. …”
