Rapid process modeling of the aerosol jet printing based on gaussian process regression with latin hypercube sampling by Zhang, Haining, Moon, Seung Ki, Ngo, T. H., Tou, J., Bin Mohamed Yusoff, M. A.

“…Hence, it is necessary to develop a small data set based machine learning approach to model relationship between the process parameters and the line morphology. In this paper, we propose a rapid process modeling method for AJP process and consider sheath gas flow rate, carrier gas flow rate, stage speed as AJP process parameters, and line width and line roughness as the line morphology. …”

Studies on fiber reinforced thermoplastic composite and their characteristics by Nagarajan Sathish

“…When the fiber volume ratio was increased, Elvax 3185 matrix specimen’s load carrying capacity and Young’s modulus increased and the ultimate strength decreased. It was vice versa for HDPE matrix specimens. In the beginning, the laminates were fabricated and tested using only one type of resin for each laminate. …”

Hybrid brain computer interface for relaxation management by Ngian, Michelle Mei Xue

“…In mental engagement and mental response, participants are observed to be having lower engagement level and higher stress level during least liked passage and vice versa for most liked passage. This proved that multimodal system makes evaluation process much more reliable together with visual and mental engagement and other modalities such as heart rate variability, mental and reaction response. …”

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.…”
