Manganese phosphate coated Li[Ni0.6Co0.2Mn0.2]O2 cathode material : towards superior cycling stability at elevated temperature and high voltage by Chen, Zhen, Kim, Guk-Tae, Guang, Yang, Bresser, Dominic, Diemant, Thomas, Huang, Yizhong, Copley, Mark, Behm, Rolf Jürgen, Passerini, Stefano, Shen, Zexiang

“…Nickel-rich Li[Ni0.6Co0.2Mn0.2]O2 is considered to be the next step forward towards the realization of high-energy lithium-ion batteries and has, thus, attracted intensive attention recently. However, achieving long-term cycling stability at elevated temperatures and voltages still remains a formidable challenge for practical applications. …”

A collision risk assessment method for runway threshold management : a case study of Singapore Changi Airport by Ang, Haojie, Cai, Qing, Alam, Sameer

“…However, many runways suffer from long runway thresholds due to safety constraints in face of approach path obstacles, which leads to reduction in Landing Distance Available (LDA), thereby reducing runway capacity. …”

Low complexity and low power FIR filter design by Ye, Wenbin

“…First, the computational complexity to achieve the minimum number of adders is too high to be used in the design of long filters, and second, the number of adder criterion is too coarse and inaccurate for the minimization of power consumption. …”

Rupture kinematics of the 2005 Mw 8.6 Nias-Simeulue earthquake from the joint inversion of seismic and geodetic data by Konca, A. Ozgun, Hjorleifsdottir, Vala, Song, Alex Teh-Ru, Avouac, Jean-Philippe, Ji, Chen, Sieh, Kerry, Helmberger, Don V., Briggs, Richard W., Meltzner, Aron J.

“…Source models obtained from the inversion of various combinations of the teleseismic body waves and geodetic data are evaluated by comparing predicted and observed long-period seismic waveforms (100–500 sec). Our results indicate a relatively slow average rupture velocity of 1.5 to 2.5 km/sec and long average rise time of up to 20 sec. …”

Discontinuous deformation analysis for subsidence of fractured formations under seepage: a case study by Gao, Jingyao, Wang, Wei, Tang, Yiyang, Fan, Hongyun

“…With the growing prominence of recycling projects of groundwater, the attention towards subsidence concerns in geological formations is intensifying. However, due to the long evolutionary time and complex underground discontinuities, the deformation field and subsidence mechanism are difficult to obtain. …”

An encoding scheme capturing generic priors and properties of amino acids improves protein classification by Zhou, Xinrui, Yin, Rui, Zheng, Jie, Kwoh, Chee-Keong

“…Automated feature engineering, i.e., an encoding scheme automating the construction of features, saves the redesigning process and allows the researchers to try different representations with minimal effort. This is more in line with the explosion of data and the goal of building an intelligent system. …”
