Organic solvent-assisted control of hydrogel structures and properties by Zhou, Quan

“…This became possible for the following two reasons: 1) the addition of ethanol makes SA solution exhibit the upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behavior in which gelation occurred when the temperature was reduced below the sol-to-gel transition temperature, and 2) the presence of ethanol significantly increased the viscosity of SA solution and enhanced its shear-thinning feature, thus making it ideal for 3D printing. …”

Second order multi-object filtering with target interaction using determinantal point processes by Teoh, Timothy Zhisheng

“…Our approach relies on posterior moment formulas for the estimation of a general hidden point process after a thinning operation and a superposition with a Poisson Point Process (PPP), and on suitable approximation formulas of the determinantal point process hypothesis. …”

Energy management of microgrids by Ju, Chengquan

“…Large-scale energy storage systems have provided promising potentials for multiple applications in microgrids by providing additional spinning reserve, regulating voltage, frequency and power factors, as well as offering economic benefits by participating into demand response and facilitating the integration of renewable energy sources (RESs). …”

Structural and metamorphic architecture of the Zanskar Himalaya, Suru Valley region, NW India: Implications for the evolution of the Himalayan metamorphic core by Cawood, IP, St-Onge, MR, Weller, OM, Searle, MP, Waters, DJ, Ahmad, T

“…D3 fabrics wrap thermal peak porphyroblasts and realign linear mineral phases. Tectonic thinning adjacent to D3 normal faults is documented by reduced structural spacing of isograds and alignment of isograd surfaces parallel to the faults. …”

Smart material based on magnetorheological elastomer and its 3D printing by Bastola, Anil K.

“…The 3D printability of different materials has been studied by measuring their rheological properties and it was found that the highly shear thinning, and thixotropic properties are important for 3D printability. …”
