Echoes From the Stone Reframing Preservation in Syria Through Haurani Folklore by Alrifai, Hajar

“…By foraging for this counter-archive of living memories, I reveal intergenerational intersections which complicate and reimbue the colonial history of the village—and of Syria—with voices that echo from the stone, voices that persist and whisper from the ground, from across borders and oceans, and from within. …”

Durs Grünbein’s elegy for Dresden by Leeder, K

“…Written by someone who by dint of his date of birth was not witness to the events, the poem splices together many voices and perspectives, asking who is permitted to mourn and how, and also (explicitly) challenging conventional modes of elegy. …”

Emergent vortices at a ferromagnetic superconducting oxide interface by Petrović, A P, Paré, A, Paudel, T R, Lee, K, Holmes, S, Barnes, C H W, David, A, Wu, T, Tsymbal, E Y, Panagopoulos, C

“…This hysteresis is argued to arise from vortex depinning within a thin (< 20 nm) superconducting layer, mediated by discrete ferromagnetic dipoles located solely above the layer. The pinning strength may be modified by varying the superconducting channel thickness via electric field-effect doping. …”

High Rake Angle Orthogonal Machining of Highly Ordered Pyrolytic Graphite Parallel to the Basal Plane by Jayasena, B., Subbiah, S., Reddy, C. D.

“…Evidence of flat, folded, and rolled structures were found in exfoliated graphite sheets in addition to defects such as two types of kink bands. Multiple spikes in measured cutting forces were seen during machining due to disturbances in tool movement. …”

HST.725 Music Perception and Cognition, Spring 2004 by Tramo, Mark J., M.D. Ph.D., Cariani, Peter, Oxenham, Andrew

“…Basic perceptual dimensions of hearing (pitch, timbre, consonance/roughness, loudness, auditory grouping) form salient qualities, contrasts, patterns and streams that are used in music to convey melody, harmony, rhythm and separate voices. Perceptual, cognitive, and neurophysiological aspects of the temporal dimension of music (rhythm, timing, duration, temporal expectation) are explored. …”

Wideband speech coding based on mixed excitation linear prediction(MELP) by Lim, Weiran.

“…In order to achieve a good subjective quality for the decoded speech while maintaining a low operating bit rate at the same time, modifications to the pitch estimation, voiced/unvoiced strength analysis, linear predictive (LP) analysis/synthesis of the original MELP model are proposed and examined in detail. …”

Direct observation of deterministic domain wall trajectory in magnetic network structures by Sethi, Pankaj, Murapaka, Chandrasekhar, Goolaup, Sarjoosing, Chen, Yun Jie, Leong, Siang Huei, Lew, Wen Siang

“…The DW propagation in the network structure is governed by the geometrically induced potential barrier and pinning strength against the propagation. This technique can be extended for controlling the trajectory of magnetic charge carriers in an artificial spin ice lattice.…”

Characterization of hippocampal CA1 place cells. by Lau, Hwee Hui.

“…Most of the neurons had stable firing across sessions recorded in both familiar and novel environments, while some showing selective discharged of spikes in either one of the environments tested. The data recorded had provided spatial-temporal pattern for study of neuronal activities of physiologically identified place cells residing in the hippocampal CA1 pyramidal layer.…”
