Investigating accuracy of contour interpolation in modal and amodal completion by Koh, Nicklaus Zhi-Ming

“…We also found that all three types of perceptual completion interpolated the curvilinear contour stimulus flatter than their theoretical paths, of which, blind spot filling-in produced the flattest completions. Our study confirms previous findings regarding the shape of interpolated contours and also extends the understanding about the precision and accuracy of blind spot filling-in and modal completion, as well as amodal completion. …”

Active rollator walker by Tan, Zhi Yong

“…Along with the ageing population, there is an increase in the total number of semi-ambulant as one’s muscles degenerate and decrease in function with old age. Falls are usually the cause of injury in the elderly and with a rise in the elderly population, there is an immense need for mobility assistive devices to help them avoid falling. …”

Crossover from viscous fingering to fracturing in cohesive wet granular media: a photoporomechanics study by Meng, Yue, Li, Wei, Juanes, Ruben

“…We fabricate photoelastic spherical particles of diameter d = 2 mm, and make a monolayer granular pack with tunable intergranular cohesion in a circular Hele–Shaw cell that is initially filled with viscous silicone oil. We inject water into the oil-filled photoelastic granular pack, varying the injection flow rate, defending-fluid viscosity, and intergranular cohesion. …”
