Coupled partitioned fluid-motion solver in modelling the response of marine structures by Chow, Jeng Hei

“…The implicit method to solve the rigid body motion is based on Adams-Bashforth-Moulten predictor-corrector steps, an improvement over the Euler and the Leapfrog schemes for fast convergence. To ensure a balance between stability and fast convergence, Aitkens dynamic under-relaxation has been implemented on the accelerations. …”

Wide-spectrum modulated electrochromic smart windows based on MnO₂/PB films by Ma, Dongyun, Eh, Alice Lee-Sie, Cao, Sheng, Lee, Pooi See, Wang, Jinmin

“…Inorganic materials have been extensively studied for visible electrochromism in the past few decades. However, the single inorganic electrochromic (EC) material commonly exhibits a single color change, leading to a narrow spectrum of modulation, which offsets or limits the maximally energy-saving ability. …”

Hunting and the social lives of Southern Africa’s first farmers by Jones, M, Kapumha, R, Chirikure, S, Marshall, F

“…However, archaeological models emphasize cattle keeping and downplay the role of hunting among past farming groups. To address this discrepancy and investigate human–wild animal interactions over the last ~ 2000 years, we examined zooarchaeological data from 54 southern African Iron Age (first and second millennium AD) farming sites. …”

Boronic acid and nitrofuranyl derivatives as potential therapeutics by Dey, AL

“…However, the desired NInC proved unstable and the studies on ester hydrolysis of these novel NInCs suggest that a suitable ester prodrug of these potential drug conjugates may be promising in a clinical setting. Last but not least, it is hoped that a handful of these potentially novel therapeutics could further be developed into leads or drug candidates either in Oxford or elsewhere in an attempt to tackle the ever-increasing antibacterial resistance. …”
