Improved 3-D frequency-selective structures and their applications by Ahmed Abdelmottaleb Abdelfattah Attia Omar

“…ABSTRACT Frequency-selective surfaces are 2-D infinite arrays that act as a filter for the incident electromagnetic waves. They have been used in hybrid radomes, dichroic main reflector, sub-reflector, microwave absorbers, absorptive frequency-selective surfaces, high impedance surfaces, and many other applications. …”

Improving the diagnostic yield of whole genome sequencing: neurodevelopmental and epilepsy disorders by Hashim, M

“…Following the initial report that described KMT2E as a neurodevelopmental disorder-causing gene, a new syndrome called O'Donnell-Luria-Rodan-Rodan syndrome (ODLURO) has been recognised, and the gene has received approval for panel testing. …”

Failure analysis and characterization for microelectronic packaging by Lin, Pamela

“…In the recent years, the mechanical robustness and reliability of three-dimensional (3D) integrated circuit (IC) packaging have become tremendously challenging due to its continuous reduction in size and increase in vertical integration. …”

Physical unclonable function based solutions to unification of user, device and data authentication by Zheng, Yue

“…These solutions are typically realized using conventional techniques that require the safekeeping of a secret binary key in the non-volatile memory, or battery-backed SRAM of some device, or a token owned by the user, which have been proven to be vulnerable to various kinds of invasive, semi-invasive and side channel attacks. …”

A machine-learned approach for reducing airborne delays and environmental impact in terminal manoeuvring area using extended arrival management by Lim, Zhi Jun

“…Although COVID-19 temporarily reduced delays due to decreased traffic, many large hubs have now returned to pre-pandemic levels, with strong growth expected in the coming years. Air traffic management divides the airspace into three sections: the airport control zone (taxiing, takeoff, landing), the terminal manoeuvring area (TMA, for climbs and descents), and the en-route airspace (cruise). …”

Characterisation of transport and thermodynamic properties for various binary electrolytes by Hou, T

“…Then, a novel conditioning-free, promoter-free Mg2+-conductive elec- trolyte was developed. It has been discovered that metal Mg can be sponta- neously oxidised from non-aqueous ZnCl₂/THF, CuCl₂/THF, or SnCl₂/THF solutions, generating Mg²⁺-conductive electrolytes. …”

Differences in the effectiveness of individual-level smoking cessation interventions by socioeconomic status by Theodoulou, A, Fanshawe, TR, Leavens, E, Theodoulou, E, Wu, AD, Heath, L, Stewart, C, Nollen, N, Ahluwalia, JS, Butler, AR, Hajizadeh, A, Thomas, J, Lindson, N, Hartmann-Boyce, J

“…Studies must have assessed or reported smoking quit rates, split by any measure of socioeconomic status (SES) at longest follow‐up (≥ six months), and been published in 2000 or later. <p><b>Data collection and analysis </b></p> We followed standard Cochrane methods for screening, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment. …”

Electronic cigarettes for smoking cessation by Lindson, N, Butler, AR, McRobbie, H, Bullen, C, Hajek, P, Begh, R, Theodoulou, A, Notley, C, Rigotti, NA, Turner, T, Livingstone-Banks, J, Morris, T, Hartmann-Boyce, J

“…We did not detect evidence of serious harm from nicotine EC, but the longest follow-up was two years and the number of studies was small. The main limitation of the evidence base remains imprecision due to the small number of RCTs, often with low event rates. …”
