Numerical simulation and topology optimization of slider air bearing by Li, Qiang

“…Since the first commercial hard disk drive was developed in 1956, the stability of the flying attitude is always an important factor to be considered in the slider air bearing design. The objective of this dissertation is to develop an efficient computational modeling technique for simulating the air bearing slider (ABS) in hard disk drives and ultimately develop an effective topology optimization methodology to systematically and automatically design the air bearing slider with a target of achieving a near-constant flying attitude when the slider moves over the surface of the hard disk drive. …”

Analysis of bull and bear phases of the Singapore stock market by Wang, Tiantian, Yang, Na

“…This project studies the alternation of bull and bear markets of Singapore stock market. Using historical daily Straits Time Index (STI) from 25/1/2000 to 24/8/2009 and weekly STI from 28/12/1987 to 24/8/2009, this project investigates two approaches to simulate the bull and bear runs, which are compared with the actual bull and bear runs. …”

Shear behaviour of high-strength concrete beams by He, Lihua.

“…The rapidly increasing use of high strength concrete as an alternative to the more classical materials (normal strength concrete) requires knowledge by the design engineer of HSC behaviour in shear. The experimental investigation conducted in this project is important to evaluate the current design methods used for shear design of HSC beams, and the theoretical model proposed in this research for reinforced concrete element is capable of predicting not only the ultimate shear strength but also the load-deformation response of concrete elements subjected to in-plane shear and normal stresses.…”
