The stability of 30µm diameter water-jet for jet guided laser machining by Du, Guannan

“…Furthermore, the critical Reynolds number and the critical exit jet velocity of the case with J0,1.1m nozzle diameter have been found to make a comparison of turbulence flow and laminar flow with different exit jet velocities. Hence, the optimal exit jet velocity to get longest stable length of water-jet was found. …”

Role of different dendritic cell subsets in vivo by Abdul Rashid Mohammad Muzaki

“…In a dextran sodium sulphate (DSS) model of colonic inflammation, ablation of CD103+ CD11b- colonic DCs resulted in exacerbated colitis, while ablation of colonic CD103+ CD11b+ DCs resulted in resistance to colitis when subjected to the same DSS regiment. Hence our results highlight the opposing roles of these two distinct colonic DC subsets in controlling DSS-induced colonic inflammation. …”

Modeling and control for generator in aerospace applications by Yeo, Alex Beng Keong

“…However, the driving of the electrical machines using a two-level inverter would create undesirable consequences namely high current ripple, EMI problems and also high power losses. Hence, the objective of this project is to assess and evaluate a suitable converter topology for future embedded starter or generator taking in considerations of the mentioned consequences and requirements by carrying out a trade study. …”

Optimization of solubility of corannulene polymers via ring opening metathesis polymerization by Gunasegaran, Kevitrra

“…However, previous study carried out ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) on corannulene monomer using ruthenium-based Grubbs’ second-generation catalyst (G2) resulted in an insoluble corannulene homopolymer formation. Hence, this study aims to synthesize corannulene-encoded copolymer of high solubility in organic solvent via ROMP. …”

Fault tolerant control for unmanned ship by Ang, Zhi Yong

“…Most of these articles have been written by independent authors or organisations, focusing only on their area of expertise. Hence, this paper has provide the compilation of many individual research papers under the literature reviews of power converters and motors which includes the fault tolerance, fault isolation and the different types of fault that will possibly occurred in the system. …”

Temporal Dominance Military Transformation and the Time Dimension of Strategy by Seah, Edwin

“…The recent literature invoking Effects Based Operations and Network Centricity does not clarify strategic concepts, but rather operational and tactical concerns. Hence this paper attempts to address the imbalance accorded to mastering time, that all-important and oft-ignored dimension in warfare, by arguing that military transformation really needs to seek not simply rapid dominance, but temporal dominance. …”

Randomness and early termination: what makes a game exciting? by Guo, G, Howison, S, Possamai, D, Reisinger, C

“…In this paper we revisit an open problem posed by Aldous on the max-entropy win-probability martingale: given two players of equal strength, such that the win-probability is a martingale diffusion, which of these processes has maximum entropy and hence gives the most excitement for the spectators? …”

Universal in-context approximation by prompting fully recurrent models by Petrov, A, Lamb, TA, Paren, A, Torr, PHS, Bibi, A

“…While it was recently shown that transformer models do possess this property, these results rely on their attention mechanism. Hence, these findings do not apply to fully recurrent architectures like RNNs, LSTMs, and the increasingly popular SSMs. …”

SleepVST: sleep staging from near-infrared video signals using pre-trained transformers by Carter, JF, Jorge, J, Gibson, O, Tarassenko, L

“…This has led to research into camera-based sleep monitoring as a promising alternative to “gold-standard” polysomnography, which is cumbersome, expensive to administer, and hence unsuitable for longer-term clinical studies. …”
