Ultra wideBand indoor position localizaiton by Xu, Jun

“…Thus we develop an angle-of-arrival (AOA) cooperative positioning algorithm which takes advantage of high connectivity of wireless networks as well as the fine temporal resolution of UWB technique. Both TDOA and AOA ranging schemes have their own advantages and drawbacks, and thus we propose hybrid methods. …”

Effect of confining pressure on hysteresis of soil-water characteristic curves by Eng, Ngee Kiang

“…In this project, river sand specimens of different fine contents (5% and 30% fines) were subjected to multi-cycles of drying and wetting at non-zero net confining pressures using the SWCC Apparatus. …”

Dynamic traction of lattice-confined platinum atoms into mesoporous carbon matrix for hydrogen evolution reaction by Lou, David Xiong Wen, Zhang, Huabin, An, Pengfei, Zhou, Wei, Guan, Bu Yuan, Zhang, Peng, Dong, Juncai

“…Results of extended x-ray absorption fine structure investigation and density functional theory calculation suggest that the active sites are associated with the lattice-confined Pt centers and the activated carbon (C)/nitrogen (N) atoms at the adjacency of the isolated Pt centers. …”

Surface modification of additive manufactured components by ultrasonic cavitation abrasive finishing by Tan, Kai Liang, Yeo, Song Huat

“…Scanning electron microscopic images revealed that most small-sized partially melted powders were removed through heterogeneous cavitation nucleation on the specimens’ rough initial surface. A secondary fine-scale erosion mechanism by micro-abrasives, accelerated by cavitation bubble collapses, further depressed difficult-to-remove irregularities.…”

Triple boundary multiphase with predictive interleaving technique for switched capacitor DC-DC converter regulation by Xiao, Zhekai, Kok, Chiang Liang, Siek, Liter

“…The proposed technique avoids these problems by using triple boundary hysteretic control, where one comparator is used for defining the reference voltage, and the other two comparators enable coarse/fine operation to achieve both fast recovery and tight regulation.…”

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. …”

Cadmium isotope fractionation during adsorption onto calcite by Peng, H, Liu, P, Zheng, H, Belshaw, NS, Hu, S, Zhu, Z

“…The enrichment of lighter Cd isotopes may result from highly distorted octahedral Cdsingle bondO6 sites of inner-sphere Cd complexes on calcite, indicated by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS). However, near identical coordination environments of the aqueous and sorbed Cd species in the presence of PO43− likely led to the reduced Cd isotope fractionation. …”

Characterising human disparity tuning properties using population receptive field mapping by Alvarez, I, Mancari, A, Ip, IB, Parker, AJ, Bridge, H

“…Finally, the individual thresholds for psychophysical stereoacuity at the 3 different pedestal disparities were broadly related to population receptive field tuning width in area V1, suggesting a possible limit for fine stereopsis at the earliest level of cortical processing. …”

Investigating the role of factor inhibiting HIF (FIH) in tumourigenesis by Ma, J

“…Factor Inhibiting HIF (FIH), an oxygen-dependent hydroxylase of HIF, inhibits the transcription of selective HIF target genes, and is hence a potential therapeutic target to fine-tune HIF activity. However, how FIH may affect tumourigenesis has not been comprehensively investigated.…”

A driftwood-based record of Arctic sea ice during the last 500 years from northern Svalbard reveals sea ice dynamics in the Arctic Ocean and Arctic peripheral seas by Hole, GM, Rawson, T, Farnsworth, WR, Schomacker, A, Ingólfsson, Ó, Macias-Fauria, M

“…Provenance and age determinations by dendrochronology and wood anatomy provide insights into Arctic Ocean currents and climatic conditions at a fine spatial resolution, as crossdating with reference chronologies from the circum-Arctic boreal forests enables determination of the watershed the driftwood originated from. …”
