Canonical Diffeomorphisms of Manifolds Near Spheres by Wang, Bing, Zhao, Xinrui

“…Abstract For a given Riemannian manifold $$(M^n, g)$$ ( M n , g ) which is near standard sphere $$(S^n, g_{round})$$ ( S n , g round ) in the Gromov–Hausdorff topology and satisfies $$Rc \ge n-1$$ R c ≥ n - 1 , it is known by Cheeger–Colding theory that M is diffeomorphic to $$S^n$$ S n . …”

Bio-based lubricant with additives: Tribological performances in hydrodynamic journal bearing by Norazman, Amanda, Paiman, Zulhanafi, Samion, Syahrullail, Afiq, Muhammad Noor, Muhammad Yazid, Witri, Rasep, Zuraidah

“…Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the performance of bio-based lubricants (BBL), namely, palm mid-olein (PMO) enriched with an antioxidant agent, tertiary-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) and a viscosity improver, ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), in journal bearing (JB) applications. Design/methodology/approach: Samples of the BBL were prepared by blending it with TBHQ and EVA at various blending ratios. …”

Risk seeking and overconfidence level of Chinese Singaporeans in the individual collective dimension. by Cheong, Joel., Tan, Shu Hui., Teo, Siok Hui.

“…This research aims to assess (1) Chinese Singaporeans' risk seeking preference and overconfidence level, whether they are more in sync with an individualistic or collectivist society, (2) the presence of any cushion effect in the Chinese Singaporeans collectivist family, (3) the validity of the "argument recruitment model" with respect to Chinese Singaporeans in the general knowledge test.…”
