Application of MCG-PTCC system on neo-cartilage regeneration by Jiang, Yuwei

“…This project aims to apply the advance fabricated micro-cavities gel (MCG) construct and the innovative phase transfer cell culture (PTCC) strategy to cartilage tissue engineering to realize the self-formation of the bone fide neo-cartilage tissue. The phenomenon called edge flourish (EF) is the underlying principle for successfully creating the MCG-PTCC system. …”

Segmentation of liver tumor from CT images by La, Cam Chung

“…Finally, a new semi-automatic method is proposed to improve liver tumor segmentation by finding out the ribcage curves on every CT slice, using the rib bone traces. One can use the rib curve as a post-processing step to fine tune the segmentation.…”

Experimental investigation on the effect of masked multiple passes abrasive waterjet machining surface texturing on coefficient of friction by Hafiz, Husin, Mohd Nazir, Mat Nawi, Asmelash, Mebrahitom Asmelash, Kushendarsyah, Saptaji, Azmir, Azhari

“…Laser surface texturing is the popular choice; however, this method suffers drawbacks such as cracking, heat-affected zone, and generation of hazardous fumes. The Abrasive Water Jet Machining (AWJM) was chosen is that, because the eroded material is carried by the waterjet, the process is clean and does not produce dust, chips, or chemical contaminants. …”

Rectified and Salt Concentration Dependent Wetting of Hydrophobic Nanopores by Polster, Jake W, Aydin, Fikret, de Souza, J Pedro, Bazant, Martin Z, Pham, Tuan Anh, Siwy, Zuzanna S

“…The nanopore we study contains a junction between a hydrophobic zone and a positively charged hydrophilic zone. The nanopore is closed for transport at low salt concentrations and exhibits finite current only when the concentration reaches a threshold value that is dependent on the pore opening diameter, voltage polarity and magnitude, and type of electrolyte. …”

Coseismic and postseismic slip of the 2005 Mw8.6 Nias‐Simeulue earthquake : spatial overlap and localized viscoelastic flow by Qiu, Qiang, Feng, Lujia, Hermawan, Iwan, Hill, Emma M.

“…This localized viscoelastic flow coincides with a low-velocity zone below Toba volcano, as imaged by tomography studies; it is possible that the viscoelastic flow beneath the volcano accelerated following this event.…”

Transmission-scanning electron microscopy of interface fracture of ferrite deformation twins by Koko, A, Marrow, TJ

“…This provided details of the lattice misorientation and dislocation arrangement, including the dislocation-free zone at the twin tip. These observations provide evidence for the link between microcracking of the irregular twin/parent interface and relaxation of the residual strains that arise from twin growth, offering new insights into fracture mechanics in these materials.…”

Arabization, the victimizer: a constructivist analysis of the role of Arabization in harming social security and social cohesion in Singapore by Shukul, Raaj Kumar

“…Given that religion often shapes the values, norms and worldviews of individuals, being able to identify and even counter such nefarious attempts of agitating the Malay-Muslim community against the Other will (1) empower them to know the nuances between politics and religion without acting on illegitimate agendas being advocated for by such non-state actors; (2) Allow for the contextualized and accurate interpretations of religious tenets amongst various demographics within the Malay-Muslim community in Singapore and lastly, (3) serve as a significant model of the appreciation and practice of Islam within the Nusantara region that allows for a strengthening of our social fabric, social security and social cohesion borne out of a sincere and informed appreciation of Islam.…”
