Sages, smokers, sojourners : the religion of the void in China and Southeast Asia by Soh, Esmond Chuah Meng

“…The Zhenkongjiao 真空教, alias the Great Way Within Emptiness 空中大道, refers to a Chinese religious movement whose emergence in twentieth-century southeast China and Southeast Asia was characterized by its rehabilitation of opium-addicts with meditation regimes and tea-drinking rituals. This thesis discusses the institutions, beliefs, and the rituals of the Zhenkongjiao in East and Southeast Asia throughout the twentieth- and twenty-first centuries. …”

Computation fluid dynamics on drag reduction II by Zang, Bin

“…Lastly, the grid size and RANS models are subjected to further verification to ensure the observations and calculations are indeed trustworthy and relatively accurate by studying skin friction coefficient and comparing to empirical formula; also by simulating more complex dimpled flow with different Reynolds number regimes. The result establishes agreements in friction coefficient while the simulation of complex flow doe s not. …”

Spatiotemporal signatures of elastoinertial turbulence in viscoelastic planar jets by Yamani, Sami, Raj, Yashasvi, Zaki, Tamer A., McKinley, Gareth H., Bischofberger, Irmgard

“…We show how fluid elasticity has a nonmonotonic effect on the jet stability depending on its magnitude, creating two distinct regimes in which elastic effects can either destabilize or stabilize the jet. …”

Uncertainty & robustness for single-cell studies by Shiffman, Miriam

“…At the same time, these technologies present particular statistical and computational challenges, including noise, sparsity, technical and biological variability, and multilevel sampling regimes. To distill relevant signal from biological phenomena, then, analyses must combine information in a careful and coherent way across cells. …”

Beyond Color: Lattice Gauge Theory for Strongly-Coupled Physics by Oare, Patrick R.

“…Despite this, it remains difficult to compute QCD observables because QCD is strongly-coupled, and typical perturbative methods used in QFT only work in specific regimes of validity for QCD. The most successful ab initio method to study QCD is Lattice Gauge Theory (LGT). …”

On shear adhesion of adhesive fibrils by Linghu, Changhong, Du, Zihao, Sun, Yi, Chen, Weiqiu, Hsia, K. Jimmy

“…Based on this compliance solution, a rigorous scaling law for shear adhesion strength is derived, which can predict the energy-controlled adhesion regime as well as the theoretical strength-limited regime, as the aspect ratio decreases. …”

History dependence of the microstructure on time-dependent deformation during in-situ cooling of a nickel-based single-crystal superalloy by Panwisawas, Chinnapat, D’Souza, Neil, Collins, David M., Bhowmik, Ayan, Roebuck, Bryan

“…Time-dependent plastic deformation through stress relaxation and creep deformation during in-situ cooling of the as-cast single-crystal superalloy CMSX-4® has been studied via neutron diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, electro-thermal miniature testing, and analytical modeling across two temperature regimes. Between 1000 °C and 900 °C, stress relaxation prevails and gives rise to softening as evidenced by a decreased dislocation density and the presence of long segment stacking faults in γ phase. …”
