Experimental study on sediment clump by Yang, Yang

“…A group of dense particles released instantaneously into stagnant ambient water is generally studied as thermal-like formation, experiences the classical three regimes of transition, namely the acceleration, thermal and dispersive regimes (Wilkinson & Rahimipour 1992). …”

Structure of mushy layers grown from perfectly and imperfectly conducting boundaries. Part 1. Diffusive solidification by Hitchen, JR, Wells, AJ

“…For an isothermal boundary we characterise different growth regimes depending on a concentration ratio, which can also be viewed as characterising the ratio of composition-dependent freezing point depression versus the temperature difference across the mushy layer. …”

Predictability of exchange rates with taylor rule fundamentals : evidence from inflation-targeting emerging countries by Alba, Joseph Dennis, Park, Donghyun, Xie, Taojun

“…We investigate the out-of-sample predictability of U.S. dollar exchange rates with Taylor rule fundamentals in thirteen emerging countries with inflation-targeting monetary policy regimes. We find some evidence of out-of-sample exchange rate predictability for Brazil, Czech Republic, Hungary, Philippines, Thailand, and South Africa. …”

Pseudospin dynamics in multimode polaritonic Josephson junctions by Pavlovic, G., Malpuech, G., Shelykh, Ivan A.

“…In particular, it can lead to renormalization of the oscillation frequency, appearance of higher order harmonics, and induce transition between the regimes of free Josephson oscillations and macroscopic quantum self-trapping.…”

Hybrid-duplex communications for multi-UAV networks : an outage probability analysis by Tan, Ernest Zheng Hui, Madhukumar, A. S., Sirigina, Rajendra Prasad, Krishna, Anoop Kumar

“…Specifically, at low transmit power regimes, it is shown that the HBD-UCS attains lower uplink and downlink outage probability than an HD-UCS, as the UAV operating altitude is increased.…”

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.

“…This lowers the effective tip clearance that separates the flow regimes. The contribution of blade tip leakage loss to total impeller loss decreases by up to 22% for surface roughness increased from an Rₐ value of 1 µm to 10 µm. …”

Classification of fixed points of Potts-Bethe mapping of degree four on Q5 by Ahmad, Mohd. Ali Khameini, Murat Alp, Murat Alp, Mohd. Azahari, Mohammad Azim, Embong, Ahmad Fadillah

“…In this paper, the Potts–Bethe mapping of degree four is con-sidered over the field Q5 of 5-adic numbers. In some regimes (a condition appear in the study of p-adic Potts model), the fixed points are found and their stability are determined. …”

离散、家国、女性 ： 韩素音的中国性论述 = Diaspora, home, feminism : the Chinese-ness in Han Suyin’s works by 梁依婷 Neo, Yi Ting

“…Han Suyin had once faced difficult choices in politics and livelihood, however she eventually chose to become the connection between different countries and willingly support the Chinese regimental changes. Her acknowledgement towards China and her awkward identity as a Chinese-European, is an interesting yet complicated case within China’s history, society and literature, and is of meaningful research value. …”

Impact of cellular interference on uplink UAV communications by Tan, Ernest Zheng Hui, Madhukumar, A. S., Sirigina, Rajendra Prasad, Krishna, Anoop Kumar

“…We demonstrate that the operational altitude of the multi-UAV network determines the severity of cellular interference across low-to-high transmit power regimes. In particular, UAVs operating at higher altitudes are less affected by cellular interference, with higher finite SNR diversity gains and lower outage probability floors observed. …”

Phononic and structural response to strain in wurtzite-gallium nitride nanowires by Loh, G. C., Teo, Edwin Hang Tong, Tay, Beng Kang

“…The thermal conductivity of the nanowires is linearly dependent on the uniaxial strain in both compressive and tensile regimes, and shows no significant dissimilitude for the same amount of strain exerted on the two types of nanowire. …”

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.…”
