Experimental and numerical study of self-locking adaptable inter connection for modular steel structures by Nadeem, Gohar, Safiee, Nor Azizi, Bakar, Nabilah Abu, Karim, Izian Abd, Mohd Nasir, Noor Azline

“…The results showed that reinforced joints sustained 80% of the limit of the rigid joint at an inter-story drift ratio of 0.04 radian and satisfied the condition for strong column weak beam joint mechanism. Non-linear Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was conducted on this adaptable connection with a parametric study to study more influences of other related parameters. …”

Fabrication of gold nanotip arrays using anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) template by Lim, Xin Yuan.

“…They are usually fabricated by a combination of DRIE (Dry-Reactive-Ion-etching) and FIB (Focused-Ion-Beam) processes. However these processes require many fabrication steps, are high in cost and are limited in material choices. …”

Static elastic properties of composite materials containing microspheres by Jones, GW

“…Subsequently, we analyse the buckling criterion asymptotically in the limit as the thickness ratio tends to zero by analogy with the WKB analysis of a beam on a variable-stiffness substrate. To model the shell after buckling we consider the simplified case of an embedded shell with a crack around its equator. …”

Image processing for cryogenic transmission electron microscopy of symmetry-mismatched complexes by Huiskonen, JT

“…Due to sensitivity of biological materials to the electron beam of the microscope, only relatively low electron doses can be applied during imaging. …”

Resonant forward-scattered field in the high-saturation regime : elastic and inelastic contributions by Kwong, Chang Chi, Wellens, T., Pandey, K., Wilkowski, David

“…We measure the resonant forward scattering of light by a highly saturated atomic medium through the flashes emitted immediately after an abrupt extinction of the probe beam. The experiment is done in a dilute regime where the phenomena are well captured using the independent scattering approximation. …”

Butterfly-Inspired 2D Periodic Tapered-Staggered Subwavelength Gratings Designed Based on Finite Difference Time Domain Method by Wang, Houxiao, Zhou, Wei, Li, Er Ping, Mote, Rakesh Ganpat

“…The butterfly-inspired 2D periodic tapered-staggered subwavelength gratings were developed mainly using finite difference time domain (FDTD) method, assisted by using focused ion beam (FIB) nanoscale machining or fabrication. The periodic subwavelength structures along the ridges of the designed gratings may change the electric field intensity distribution and weaken the surface reflection. …”
