Fault slip and GPS velocities across the Shan Plateau define a curved southwestward crustal motion around the Eastern Himalayan syntaxis by Shi, Xuhua, Wang, Yu, Sieh, Kerry, Weldon, Ray, Feng, Lujia, Chan, Chung-Han, Liu-Zeng, Jing

“…Our observations of the fault geometry, slip rates, and arcuate southwesterly directed tongue‐like patterns of GPS velocities across the region suggest that the fault kinematics is characterized by a regional southwestward distributed shear across the Shan Plateau, compared to more block‐like rotation and indentation north of the Red River fault. …”

Robust Control For Underwater Vehicle Systems With Time Delays by Triantafyllou, Michael S ., Grosenbaugh, Mark A.

“…The methodology is applicable to undenvater vehicle systems that exhibit time delays, including tethered vehicles that are positioned through the movements of a surface ship and autonomous vehicles that are controlled through an acoustic link. An example, using full-scale data from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution’s tethered vehicle ARGO, demonstrates the developments.…”

Lights and sounds : effects of congruence and musical sophistication on auditory and visual perception by Aw, Justus Jinyue

“…Research has also shown that musical training improves pitch perception, and the current research was carried out to establish if there is a link between the two. A measure of musical sophistication was also used in place of time spent taking music lessons; this was done in order to capture other elements that encapsulated engagement with music beyond formal training and practice. …”
