Effect of porous density of twisted tape inserts on heat transfer performance inside a closed conduit by Rahman, Md Tauhidur, Habib, Khairul, Quader, Md Niamul, Aslfattahi, Navid, Kadirgama, Kumaran, Das, Likhan

“…Subsequently, a three-dimensional fluid flow model was employed to solve equations related to energy mass, energy, and momentum within the ANSYS Fluent interfaces. The findings highlight the noteworthy impact of high porosity TTIs, which consistently reduce temperature spans, increase fluid velocities, and greatly HTC and Nu when compared to low porosity TTI, typical TTI, and plain tubes. …”

Semantic matching in machine reading comprehension: an empirical study by Liu, Qian, Mao, Rui, Geng, Xiubo, Cambria, Erik

“…Matching coarse-grained context to questions, e.g., paragraphs, is more effective than matching fine-grained context, e.g., sentences and spans. We also find that semantic matching is helpful for answering who/where/when/what/how/which questions, whereas it decreases the MRC performance on why questions. …”

The inference-boundary model reinterpreting theme and rheme by Leong, Ping Alvin

“…The Hallidayan notions of theme and rheme pose an interesting challenge to linguists in their attempts to pin them down more specifically. This paper argues that since the thematic structure of the clause organises it as a message, a useful starting point in theme–rheme research is an understanding of how clausal messages are typically processed by language users. …”

A crosstalk-immune sub-THz All-surface-wave I/O transceiver in 65-nm CMOS by Liang, Yuan, Boon, Chirn Chye, Yu, Hao

“…It is further integrated into the all-surface-wave I/O with a surface-wave transmission line and matching converter. Measured results show that the proposed dual-channel I/O delivers a localized 140 GHz surface-wave signal, demonstrating crosstalk-immune on-chip transmission by supporting 13.5 Gb/s data-rate communication with 2.6 PJ/bit Power efficiency and a bit-error rate less than 10^(-12).…”

An eco-friendly synthesis of titanium oxide nanoparticles mediated from Syringodium isoetifolium and evaluate its biological activity and photocatalytic dye degradation. by Sundar, Velmani, Balasubramanian, Balamuralikrishnan, Sivakumar, Mani, Chinnaraj, Santhosh, Palani, Vino, Maluventhen, Viji, Kamyab, Hesam, Chelliapan, Shreeshivadasan, Arumugam, Maruthupandian, Zuleta Mediavilla, Diana Patricia

“…The percentage of degradation by the TiO2 NPs was found to be higher in methylene blue (83 %) than methyl orange (58 %) for S. isoetifolium with marine macro algae extract after 120 min of visible light irradiation. The green synthesis of TiO2 NPs emphases to be cost effective and eco-friendly with antimicrobial and anti-cancer effects against breast cancer cell lines.…”

Coherently tunable triangular trefoil phaseonium metamaterial by Soci, Cesare, Nguyen, Duc Minh, Ooi, Raymond C. H.

“…For specific values of the probing frequencies and control fields, the phaseonium can display either metallic or dielectric optical response. We find that, in the metallic regime, the phaseonium metamaterial structure supports extremely large transmission, with optical amplification at large enough intensity of the microwave thanks to strong surface plasmon coupling; while, in the dielectric regime without microwave excitation, the transmission bandwidth can be tuned by varying the control beam intensity. …”
