Crosslinkable vegetable oil based natural materials for packaging applications by Ker, Adonica Yan Ting

“…In this project, the synthesis of castor oil and citric acid polyester was carried out to produce a biodegradable polymer film for packaging applications. Castor oil and citric acid been selected as raw materials due to its high versatility and potential in undergoing esterification reaction, leading to the formation of hydrolysable ester bonds, followed by the addition of resorcinol, 1,10 decandiol and 1,12 dodecandiol as a linker to adjust the polymer film mechanical and degradation properties.…”

Imagining post-fossil tourism mobilities with Norwegian tourists by Hopkins, D, Landa-Mata, I, Kr Steen Jacobsen, J, Farstad, E, Higham, J

“…Attentive to the sociomaterial nature of tourism sustainabilities and drawing from critical sustainabilities scholarship, we present three enactments of tourism mobilities: Forming sustainabilities; Fragmenting sustainabilities; Fracturing sustainabilities, and three (re)imaginings: Stripped Back; Having a Go; Stuck in the Mud. …”

Multi-path region mining for weakly supervised 3D semantic segmentation on point clouds by Wei, Jiacheng, Lin, Guosheng, Yap, Kim-Hui, Hung, Tzu-Yi, Xie, Lihua

“…Then, we use the point-level pseudo label to train a point cloud segmentation network in a fully supervised manner. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first method that uses cloud-level weak labels on raw 3D space to train a point cloud semantic segmentation network. …”
