From cellular automata to agent-based models : addressing urban issues by Quek, Wei Liang

“…By proposing a novel combination of serial and parallel expansions, the analytical flow rate shows that optimal efficiencies are achieved via configurations with few (many) lanes of a large (small) number of serial units when the processing time is short (long). The problem of bus bunching can be found in every bus system. …”

Laser-induced reduced-graphene-oxide micro-optics patterned by femtosecond laser direct writing by Low, Mun Ji, Lee, Hyub, Lim, Joel Chin Huat, Suchand Sandeep, Chandramathi Sukumaran, Murukeshan, Vadakke Matham, Kim, Seung-Woo, Kim, Young-Jin

“…Here, we present ultra-thin diffractive LIRGO micro-optics patterned by femtosecond laser direct writing (FsLDW) with high spatial resolution and wide design flexibility based on the wide parametric tunability of femtosecond pulsed lasers over conventional continuous-wave or long-pulsed lasers. By extensive parametric control of average power (10–120 mW), pulse repetition rate (1–500 kHz) and scan speed (1–100 mm/s) in FsLDW, ultra-thin micro-optics were patterned at three patterning regimes: non-thermal photoreduction regime, thermal photoreduction regime, and ablation regime. …”

Promoting hydrogen-evolution activity and stability of perovskite oxides via effectively lattice doping of molybdenum by Zhang, Zhenbao, Chen, Yubo, Dai, Ziyang, Tan, Shaozao, Chen, Dengjie

“…The promoted HER activity of SCFM0.05 regarding the decreased overpotential, increased catalytic current density, and improved charge transfer kinetics, might originate from the combined effects of distortion of octahedral coordination, low oxygen vacancy/high oxidation state of Co, abundant lattice oxygen and highly oxidative oxygen species, long B–O length, and strong OH− adsorption compared to the un-doped counterpart. …”
