Towards in-situ texture analysis during LPBF: optical microscopy and texture control by Wang, Xiaogang

“…Finally, I present my attempts atix enabling optical microstructural analysis, in-line, during L-PBF processes (Chapter 4). To this end, I integrated special surface processing techniques as well as the optical characterization methods described in the previous chapters inside a custom-made L-PBF system. …”

Data-driven approach to spatiotemporal dynamic risk assessment of urban flooding based on shared socio-economic pathways by Wang, Mo, Chen, Furong, Zhang, Dongqing, Chen, Zijing, Su, Jin, Zhou, Shiqi, Li, Jianjun, Chen, Jintang, Li, Jiaying, Tan, Soon Keat

“…Under SSP126 scenario, nearly no change was predicted in the area with high flooding risk, with only increase of 1%, future urbanization hotspots associated with serious flooding risks will likely to be found on the fringe of the GBA's construction areas, in line with the extent of construction land expansion. …”

Empowerment through suicide in “The little mermaid” and “Giselle ou les wilis” by Wong, Angelene Suet Fong

“…The protagonists, namely, the little mermaid in Andersen’s text and Giselle in Gautier’s text, are presented in line with the “conventional romance formula of female sacrifice,” leaving much room to expand on their suicides as more than self-sacrifice, but as empowerment (de Armas Wilson 111). …”

Binding of TCR multimers and a TCR-like antibody with distinct fine-specificities is dependent on the surface density of HLA complexes by Low, Jianrong L., Gehring, Adam J., Kranz, David M., Grotenbreg, Gijsbert M., Yau, Yin Hoe, Shochat, Susana Geifman, Bertoletti, Antonio, Naidoo, Anneta, Yeo, Gladys, Ho, Zi Zong

“…Various protein scaffolds have been designed to recapitulate the specific recognition of presented antigens with the aim to be exploited both diagnostically (e.g. to visualize cells exposed to infectious agents or cellular transformation) and therapeutically (e.g. for the delivery of drugs to compromised cells). In line with this, we report the construction of a soluble tetrameric form of an αβ T cell receptor (TCR) specific for the HBV epitope Env183–191 restricted by HLA-A*02:01, and compare its avidity and fine-specificity with a TCR-like monoclonal antibody generated against the same HLA target. …”

High-spin impurities and surface acoustic waves in piezoelectric crystals for spin-lattice coupling by Magnusson, E

“…We found that the nominally pure ZnO was conductive at room temperature due to <em>n</em>-type intrinsic doping, and electrical losses inhibited any transmission through a SAW delay line above <em>T</em> = 200K. The one-port resonator measured down to milli-Kelvin temperatures showed excellent quality factors of up to <em>Q</em> &amp;sime; 1.5 × 10⁵ in its superconducting state.…”

Investigating the genetics and immunopathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis by Liu, F

“…This subset of monocytes exhibited a gene expression profile highly similar to a major population of CD14+ myeloid cells identified in AS synovial fluid (SF), strongly suggesting that T cell-induced myeloid cell activation occurs in vivo in inflamed joints. In line with this, PD1+IFN-γ+ T-cells were enriched in AS SF compared to blood. …”

Effects of Sub1 and qDTY on the agro-morpho-physiological traits of rice (Oryza sativa L.) under reproductive stage drought stress by Shakirah Mohammad Nahar, Nur Sakinah Mohd Yusri, Asmuni Mohd Ikmal, Noraziyah Abd Aziz Shamsudin, Siti Nurfaeiza Abd Razak, Pui, Maggie San Sudo, Song, Beng-Kah, Bey, Hing Goh, Long, Chiau Ming

“…Breeding and screening of drought tolerant varieties are crucial to ensure the continuity of food supply. Two breeding lines, UKM-112 and UKM-114 with QTL(s) for submergence tolerance (Submergence 1 [Sub1]) and yield under drought stress (qDTY) and together with their recurrent parental line, UKM-5, and a drought-sensitive cultivar, MR219 were screened for their agro-morpho-physiological responses under reproductive stage drought stress (RS) and non-stress (NS) to determine how the Sub1 interacts with qDTY in enhancing drought tolerance. …”
