Aqueous cadmium removal by calcium fluoride sludge by Kwan, Kevin Ka Wing.

“…Cadmium immobilization efficiency by calcium fluoride sludge increases as ionic strength decreases but remain relatively consistent with solution pH range of 3~8 other than below pH3 which can be explained by zeta potential analysis which shows that the solution is in the negative region only after approximately pH2.5. The total cadmium removal rate is contributed by the precipitation of hydroxyapatite and also the formation of cadmium hydroxyl at high pH. …”

Single image super resolution by Chan, Jeremiah Sheng En

“…In the field of computer vision, super resolution with deep learning is a promising field that has generated multiple research, and has seen its application far and wide. In single image super resolution, the image can either be upscaled before being input into the network (pre upscaling) and its features learned, or it can be upscaled after the network has learned its feature (post upscaling). …”

Poetry as postmodern by Zhang, Jieqiang

“…The paper will then make a case for how the poetic form is intimately concerned with silence, and thus, is inherently geared toward an exploration of the limits of language: how the poem’s visual shape can be seen as a metaphor for silence, how the poem is actually made of ruins—of the “ruined” poetic verse—and finally, how poetry’s near-condition of music is its desire to detach itself from the real world, into an imaginative textual reality.…”

Positive bias-induced Vth instability in graphene field effect transistors by Liu, W. J., Fang, Z., Wang, Z. R., Wang, F., Wu, L., Zhang, J. F., Wei, J., Zhu, H. L., Sun, Xiaowei, Tran, Xuan Anh, Ng, Geok Ing, Yu, Hongyu

“…The 1/f noise measurement indicates no newly generated traps in SiO2/graphene interface caused by positive bias stressing. Mobility is seen to degrade with temperature in- creasing. The degradation is believed to be caused by the trapped electrons in bulk SiO2 or SiO2/graphene interface and trap generation in bulk SiO2.…”

Maxwell-type models for the effective thermal conductivity of a porous material with radiative transfer in the voids by Kiradjiev, KB, Halvorsen, SA, Van Gorder, RA, Howison, SD

“…Indeed, the utility of these models over classical Maxwell-type models is seen in the high-temperature regime, where they predict that the effective thermal conductivity of the composite material levels off to a constant value (as a function of temperature) at very high temperatures, provided that the material is not too porous, in agreement with experiments. …”
