Responses of gas exchange and growth in Merkus pine seedlings to expected climatic changes in Thailand by Koskela, Jarkko

“…Responses of gas exchange and growth in Merkus pine (Pinus merkusii Jungh. et de Vriese) seedlings to changing climate were analysed for high- and low-altitude sites in Thailand. …”

The effect of weathering on surface characteristics of chemically modified scots pine (pinus sylvestris) wood by Amanah, Sinta, Martha, Resa, Basri, Efrida, Mubarok, Mahdi, Sekartining Rahayu, Istie, Alipraja, Irsan, Darmawan, Wayan, Gérardin, Phillippe, Emmerich, Lukas, Militz, Holger, Hani Abdullah, Ummi

“…Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) sapwood of 200×20×80 mm3(L×R×T) was treated with both cell wall filling and lumen filling chemical agents (low-molecular phenol-formaldehyde, bio-oil, N-methylol/N-methyl compounds, sorbitol-citric acid, polysiloxane), which were fixed inside the wooden structure during heat-curing processes. …”

Part I: Synthesis of sex pheromone of the pine sawfly, Macrodiprion Nemoralis. Part II: Synthetic studies towards the total synthesis of iriomoteolide-1a by Chin, Yen Jin

“…In the first part of this thesis, an elegant display of the CuI-Tol-BINAP-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition is established in the total synthesis of sex pheromone of the pine sawfly, Macrodiprion Nemoralis (SRRS-1). The key features of our strategy are: (I) one-pot DIBAL-H reduction–Wittig olefination, (II) olefin cross metathesis of fragment A and fragment B, and (III) a CuI-Tol-BINAP-catalyzed asymmetric conjugate addition using Grignard reagents in good yields and excellent stereoselectivities. …”

Reactivating and reorganizing activity-silent working memory: two distinct mechanisms underlying pinging the brain by Yang, C, He, X, Cai, Y

“…Recent studies have proposed that visual information in working memory (WM) can be maintained in an activity-silent state and reactivated by task-irrelevant high-contrast visual impulses (“ping”). Although pinging the brain has become a popular tool for exploring activity-silent WM, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. …”

Investigating Interventions in Fine-grained Contexts for Habit Formation by Khan, Mina

“…Habits are automatic responses to specific contextual cues, and can help sustain behavior change. Fine-grained specific contexts are commonly used in habit formation, but interventions in automatically-detected fine-grained contexts have rarely been explored for habit formation. …”

Fabrication of fine features using digital light processing stereolithography by Chew, Ze Yong

“…Thus, this project was developed with the objectives to: 1. reduce production cost of Stereolithography by optimizing low end commercial Stereolithography system – ASIGA Freeform Pico 39 Plus such that it is able to print fine features 2. explore effective and convenient post processing step such that it is able to reduce material wastage and at the same time further shorten production lead time The parameter study conducted revealed that every layer thickness has a specific optimal exposure time such that the layers could be printed just fine, with minimal compromise of the internal features’ accuracy. …”
