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. …”

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.…”

Drug interaction between acetyltanshinone IIA and rapamycin in breast cancer cells by Wong, De Pin

“…Developing in vitro drug combination study is essential for the development of new and effective combination regimens. In this project, the objective is to investigate the synergistic potential between two anti breast cancer agent, rapamycin and acetyltanshinone IIA (ATA) in breast cancer cells. …”

Sequential phreatomagmatic eruptions during the lateral propagation of giant dyke swarms by Pryce, E, Cartwright, J, Kirkham, C, Phillips, D

“…Craters are flanked by a tephra apron comprising reworked chalky sediments. The well data allow us to exclude crater forming mechanisms based on collapse into a void, but are consistent with those linked to phreatomagmatic eruption. …”

Targeted hematopoietic stem cell depletion through SCF-blockade by Chan, Yan Y., Ho, Pui Y., Dib, Carla, Swartzrock, Leah, Rayburn, Maire, Willner, Hana, Ko, Ethan, Ho, Katie, Down, Julian D., Wilkinson, Adam C., Nakauchi, Hiro, Denis, Morgane, Cool, Taylor, Czechowicz, Agnieszka

“…Further, to augment efficacy, combination regimens were also explored. Results We confirm that only ACK2 inhibits SCF binding fully and prevents HSC proliferation in vitro. …”

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. …”

Hobbes and the tragedy of democracy by Holman, Christopher

“…For Hobbes these two conditions combine to render democracy a tragic regime. Democracy is tragic to the extent that it must be a regime of self-limitation, there existing no ethical standard external to society that may intervene so as to guide our political self-activity, and yet the structure of deliberation in democratic assemblies tends to render such self-limitation impossible. …”

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. …”

Dynamical blockade in a single-mode bosonic system by Ghosh, Sanjib, Liew, Timothy Chi Hin

“…We find that the underlying mechanism for the blockade is general, enhancing antibunching in the strongly nonlinear regime and inducing it in the weakly nonlinear regime, without fine-tuning the system parameters. …”

The role of SPRTN protease in colorectal cancer chemotherapy by Peron, C

“…The first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is frequently based on combination chemotherapeutic regimens, where 5-fluorouracil is either associated with irinotecan (FOLFIRI) or oxaliplatin (FOLFOX). …”

Gelation, clustering, and crowding in the electrical double layer of ionic liquids by Goodwin, Zachary AH, McEldrew, Michael, Pedro de Souza, J, Bazant, Martin Z, Kornyshev, Alexei A

Shedding Light on Chemoresistance: The Perspective of Photodynamic Therapy in Cancer Management by Viana Cabral, Fernanda, Quilez Alburquerque, Jose, Roberts, Harrison James, Hasan, Tayyaba

“…Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a promising photochemistry-based approach to address chemoresistance in cancer regimens. PDT not only induces cell death but also primes surviving cells, enhancing their susceptibility to subsequent therapies. …”
