Nanomaterials preparations and their sensing applications by Zeng, Shuwen

“…Nanostructured materials have received extensive attention from the scientific community for their unique optical, electronic, magnetic, mechanical, chemical and plasmonic properties that are different from their bulk counterparts. When the size of a material is smaller than the wavelength of light which is in the nanometer scale, its property is strongly governed by its size, shape and the surrounding media. …”

Resilience and recovery in complex networks by Sy, Gerico Arquiza

“…It was found that networks that evolve mainly through the random mechanism in edge addition and edge swapping yields a network where the network connectivity of the network recovers the fastest, implying they are resilient when connectivity is of concern. However, networks that evolve through the preferential attachment mechanism in edge addition and edge swapping yields a network that recovers the fastest in terms of network efficiency or health, and thus, are resilient in this respect.…”
