Improving year-round protection against influenza infection in the tropics by Young, Barnaby

“…Vaccination is the main pharmacological method available to reduce transmission and prevent infection, but evidence that vaccine induced protection with the standard dose inactivated influenza vaccine lasts year-round is lacking. This thesis presents a review of influenza epidemiology in Asia and the association between the pattern of seasonality and latitude and climate; a systematic review and meta-analysis of test-negative design (TND) case-control studies in order to generate summary estimates of changes in vaccine effectiveness with time since vaccination; results of a cohort study that investigates whether there is evidence for waning vaccine protection against severe influenza in Singapore; an observer-blind randomised clinical trial of annual versus biannual influenza vaccination in older adults, and further analysis of predictors of waning antibody titres post-vaccination.…”

Numerical studies on modeling the near- and far-field wake vortex of a quadrotor in forward flight by Nathanael, Joshua Christian, Wang, John Chung-Hung, Low, Kin Huat

“…This article presents the results from flow simulations of quadrotor propellers using the Overset method in ANSYS Fluent 19.2 and the Virtual Blade Model (VBM) method in OpenFOAM as part of ongoing work to establish a wake vortex–based safe separation distance for UAS operations. The near-field flow simulation using the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes turbulence model was validated with mesh convergence and turbulence model studies and verified with simulation and experimental data in the literature to ensure that the propeller simulation methods could generate a realistic near-field flow of multi-rotor UAS in forward flight. …”
