Ladder Polyether Synthesis via Epoxide-Opening Cascades Using a Disappearing Directing Group by Simpson, Graham L, Heffron, Timothy P, Merino, Estíbaliz, Jamison, Timothy F

“…The trimethylsilyl group disappears during the course of the cascade, and thus these are the first epoxide ring-opening cascades that afford ladder polyether subunits containing no directing groups at the end of the cascade.…”

Two-phase immersion cooling for power dense printed circuit board converters by Ristic-Smith, A

“…A theoretical model and numerical solution method for boiling on pin fins is developed and used to design heat spreaders to increase the power dissipation per unit semiconductor area with minimal penalty on the converter volume. …”

Towards graphane applications in security: the electrochemical detection of trinitrotoluene in seawater on hydrogenated graphene by Seah, Tzu Hui, Poh, Hwee Ling, Chua, Chun Kiang, Sofer, Zdeněk, Pumera, Martin

“…Graphene was found to display a higher sensitivity than hydrogenated graphene and could be an ideal material for the detection of TNT in seawater. This is likely due to the fact that graphene contains a larger amount of aromatic rings than hydrogenated graphene, enabling larger preconcentration. …”

Developments in THz Polaritonics: Towards Integrated Nonlinear THz Spectroscopy by Sung, Eric Rueyhao

“…A circular stair-step "echelon" mirror is used to shape the pump pulse into a conical tilted pulse front composed of a series of concentric rings of pump light. When the pump rings are imaged onto a thin LT waveguide, coherent superposition of the focusing THz fields excited individually by each pump ring results in a dramatically enhanced THz field at the focus. …”

Design and 3D printing of reconfigurable structures by Teo, Ee Hian

“…The structure is made up of single modular units being repeatedly fixed together, this leads to the structure to isolate single modular units that are damaged, allowing it to be easily pin-pointed and replaced by fabricating another similar single unit, this cut cost as the structure can be salvaged by replacing a single unit instead of the whole structure.…”

Linking microstructure and local mechanical properties in SiC-SiC fiber composite using micromechanical testing by Zayachuk, Y, Karamched, P, Deck, C, Hosemann, P, Armstrong, DEJ

“…The matrix has complex hierarchical microstructure with elongated grains, often featuring twinning, growing radially from the fibers in predominantly <111> direction and forming sets of concentric rings around them. The fibers contain equiaxed grains with carbon precipitates at the grain boundaries. …”
