Non-stationary modeling of seasonal precipitation series in Turkey: estimating the plausible range of seasonal extremes by Tosunoglu, F, Slater, LJ, Kowal, KM, Gu, X, Yin, J

“…We show how the use of simple minimum/maximum values derived from the non-stationary models can help provide water resource managers and policy makers with a plausible range of extreme values, rather than the single deterministic value obtained from the traditional stationary approach.…”

Modeling Inertia-Driven Oil Transport Inside the Three-Piece Oil Control Ring of Internal Combustion Engines by Yang, Tsung-Yu, Li, Mo, Tian, Tian

“…The three-piece oil control ring (TPOCR), traditionally used in light-duty gasoline engines, is becoming a viable option for heavy-duty gas and hydrogen engines due to its ability to control lubricating oil consumption (LOC) under throttled conditions. …”

Zero-knowledge arguments for lattice-based accumulators: logarithmic-size ring signatures and group signatures without trapdoors by Libert, Benoît, Ling, San, Nguyen, Khoa, Wang, Huaxiong

“…As an application, we describe new lattice-based group and ring signatures in the random oracle model. In particular, we obtain: (i) the first lattice-based ring signatures with logarithmic size in the cardinality of the ring and (ii) the first lattice-based group signature that does not require any GPV trapdoor and thus allows for a much more efficient choice of parameters.…”

Tree-ring δ 18 O and δ 2 H stable isotopes reflect the global meteoric water line by Arosio, T, Büntgen, U, Nicolussi, K, Moseley, GE, Saurer, M, Pichler, T, Smith, MP, Gutierrez, E, Andreu-Hayles, L, Hajdas, I, Bebchuk, T, Leuenberger, M

“…We show that changes in regional tree-ring δ 18O and δ 2H values along wide latitudinal ranges are influenced by the isotopic composition of precipitation with temperature and latitude being the most significant drivers of spatial variation across the studied regions. …”

A high-sensitivity 135GHz millimeter-wave imager by compact split-ring-resonator in 65-nm CMOS by Li, Nan, Yu, Hao, Yang, Chang, Shang, Yang, Li, Xiuping, Liu, Xiong

“…A high-sensitivity 135 GHz millimeter-wave imager is demonstrated in 65 nm CMOS by on-chip metamaterial resonator: a differential transmission-line (T-line) loaded with split-ring-resonator (DTL-SRR). Due to sharp stop-band introduced by the metamaterial load, high-Q oscillatory amplification can be achieved with high sensitivity when utilizing DTL-SRR as quench-controlled oscillator to provide regenerative detection. …”

Low quiescent current 110 nm capacitorless low dropout voltage regulator with wide load current range by Ab. Halim, Wan Maziyah, Rusli, Julie Roslita, Yusoff, Yuzman, Shafie, Suhaidi, Shaban, Suraya

“…The single-digit micro-ranged quiescent current greatly contributes in minimizing power consumption during the idle mode of the CLDO regulator which can be within single digit micro-Watt range where ultra-low power applications operate, thus prolonging the battery life, whilst the wide load range provides flexibility for the proposed CLDO regulator to power a larger range of circuits to drive with better line regulation and relatively good PSRR at low-frequency range.…”

Binuclear oxidative addition of Sb-Cl bonds : a facile synthetic route to main group transition element clusters and rings by Li, Ying-Zhou, Ganguly, Rakesh, Leong, Weng Kee

“…Binuclear oxidative addition of Sb–Cl bonds with the clusters Os3(CO)11(NCCH3), 1, or Os3(CO)10(NCCH3)2, 2, was found to be an effective synthetic route to organometallic clusters and rings containing μ2-SbPh2 or μ3-SbPh moieties. Thus, the reaction of SbPh2Cl with 1 afforded the tetranuclear ring Os3(CO)11(Cl)(μ-SbPh2), 3, while its reaction with 2 afforded the pentanuclear ring Os3(CO)10(Cl)2(μ-SbPh2)2, 6. …”

The converter is implemented with a single compact magnetic component, providing power combining, voltage transformation, isolation, and energy transfer inductance. …”
