A collinear perspective on the Regge limit by Gao, Anjie, Moult, Ian, Raman, Sanjay, Ridgway, Gregory, Stewart, Iain W.

“…We illustrate this collinear perspective by re-deriving all the standard BFKL equations for two-Glauber exchange from purely collinear calculations, and we show that this perspective provides a number of conceptual and computational advantages as compared to the standard view from soft or Glauber physics. …”

Indium tin oxide random network interconnection in dye sensitized solar cells by Shimon.

“…The simulation predicts a remarkable efficiency enhancement when 70% ITO content added at porosity 40% in the DSSC to as high as 3 times the value when pure TiO2 is used. The experimental work confirms the increasing trend of efficiency with increasing ITO content, e.g. efficiency of 2.907% at pure TiO2 was observed to be increased to 3.128% at 50% of ITO content with porosity reduction from 54% to 49%. …”

Segmentation of magnetic resonance images for assessing neonatal brain maturation by Wang, S

“…This causes further difficulties in partial volume estimation which depends on the probabilistic atlases of the composing pure tissues.</p> <p>Our key contribution is the development of an expectation-maximisation framework that incorporates an explicit partial volume class whose locations are configured in relation to the composing pure tissues in a predefined region of interest via second-order Markov random fields. …”

Role of micro- and nano-cobalt ferrite as an additive in enhancing the viscous behaviour of magnetorheological grease by Ahmad Tarmizi, Siti Maisarah, Nordin, Nur Azmah, Mazlan, Saiful Amri, A. Aziz, S. A., Ubaidillah, Ubaidillah, Johari, Mohd. Aidy Faizal, Ahmad Khairi, Muntaz Hana
