Finite element analysis of a free-standing concrete sea-wall as alternative to traditional land reclamation by Harris, Raymond

“…Furthermore, a 3D caisson seawall model is used in the analysis so that the stiffness of the cellulated structure can be properly accounted for. The caisson seawall spans 40 m long to 28 m wide. It is connected on its longer side continuously so that it forms a wall barrier in which 20 m of seawater level will be drained from the usable side. …”

Toward a neuroscientific understanding of play: a dimensional coding framework for analyzing infant–adult play patterns by Neale, Dave, Clackson, Kaili, Georgieva, Stanimira, Dedetas, Hatice, Scarpate, Melissa, Wass, Sam, Leong, Victoria

“…However, there is currently no integrated framework for conducting a multimodal analysis of play that spans brain, cognition and behavior. The proposed coding framework uses grounded and observable behaviors along three dimensions (sensorimotor, cognitive and socio-emotional), to compute inferences about playful behavior in a social context, and related social interactional states. …”

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. …”
