Replacement of Artemia with Moina micrura in the rearing of freshwater shrimp larvae by Alam, M.J., Ang, K.J., Begum, M.

“…The control treatment consisted of feeding Artemia throughout the rearing period (regime A), while in the other treatments the onset of Moina feeding was arbitrarily chosen at larval stages iv (A3M), vi (A5M), viii (A7M) and x (A9M). …”

Strongly out-of-equilibrium simulations for electron Boltzmann transport equation using modal discontinuous Galerkina approach by Singh, Satyvir, Battiato, Marco

“…Ultimately, these results predict that the modal DG approach is particularly effective in treating the strongly out-of-equilibrium regimes encountered like in ultrafast transport dynamics.…”

Numerical methods for finite-size key rates with different entropic bounds in quantum key distribution by Chung, Rebecca Ru Byn

“…We then showed that the Renyi entropy indeed gives a tighter bound on the low-signal regime (N~10^5), and outperforms the bound using the von Neumann entropy in regimes of long channel distances and low signal number, thus paving the way for a better understanding of long-distance satellite-based QKD protocols in the presence of finite resources.…”

Enhancing spectrum efficiency through hybrid-duplex systems for aeronautical communications by Tan, Ernest Zheng Hui

“…Through the various performance analysis, the benefits of HBD systems over half-duplex (HD) systems at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regimes are highlighted. The major contributions of this thesis are further elaborated below. …”

Effects of Tip Clearance and Surface Roughness on Small-Scale Turbopump Impeller Performance by Ruecker, Kinjal A. L.

“…The analysis identified two distinct flow regimes based on tip clearance: above 5% of tip clearance, the losses are predominantly due to blade tip leakage flow, whereas below this threshold, losses are governed by both secondary flow and blade tip leakage flow. …”

Design and development of bio-medical devices using rapid prototyping techniques by Phua, Kenneth Khiang Song.

“…Many drug regimes must be carefully dosed as they are either too complicated to be self –administered or face low compliance by the patients themselves. …”

Nonlinear evolution and acceleration of unstable fuel-lean hydrogen/air flame at normal and cryogenic temperatures by Yang, L, Zhang, T, Wang, Y, Fang, X, Leach, F, Chen, Z

“…By changing the equivalence ratio, initial temperature and channel size, the intensity of DLI and DTI varies, resulting in various regimes of flame evolution. It is found that cryogenic flames are more unstable than normal flames. …”

On shear adhesion of adhesive fibrils by Linghu, Changhong, Du, Zihao, Sun, Yi, Chen, Weiqiu, Hsia, K. Jimmy

“…Based on this compliance solution, a rigorous scaling law for shear adhesion strength is derived, which can predict the energy-controlled adhesion regime as well as the theoretical strength-limited regime, as the aspect ratio decreases. …”

Our weapons, our problem: arms exports, democracy and civil society in Brazil and the UK by de Moraes, RF

“…Next, I examine why and how the governments of these two countries sought to export their practices to the rest of the world or opted to join international regimes.</p>…”

The changing nature of Chinese business in Africa : the case of Cape Verde by Horta, Loro

“…Chinese state companies are usually singled out for criticism in the West due to their links with despotic African regimes all for the sake of profit. The nature of Chinese business in Africa is however becoming more complex.…”

Deep neural networks have an inbuilt Occam’s razor by Mingard, C, Rees, H, Valle-Pérez, G, Louis, AA

“…The prior over functions is determined by the network architecture, which we vary by exploiting a transition between ordered and chaotic regimes. For Boolean function classification, we approximate the likelihood using the error spectrum of functions on data. …”

Profiting from prestige: the political economy of mega-events in Azerbaijan by Laporte, J

“…By problematising the direction of causality between mega-events and rentseeking behaviour, this analysis expands current theories on states’ motivations for hosting these events and contributes to existing understandings about how these proceedings serve to support and sustain rentier regimes.…”

Conflict abroad and political trust at home evidence from a natural experiment by Klymak, M, Vlandas, T

“…Further analyses using other surveys and previous conflicts suggest this effect depends on proximity to the conflict and the political regimes of the attacked country. These findings contribute to our understanding of the complex and indirect effects of conflicts on domestic political trust.…”
