Study of wear properties of EN1055 steel after laser surface treatment by Koh, Colin Chonghua

“…To compensate for the high cost of applications, it must be reliable and have a long service life. Wear of EN1055 steel occurs by plastic displacement of surface and near-surface material and shortens the service life of its application. …”

The potential impact of the Singapore-Malaysia high speed rail operation on the passenger demand for the low-cost carriers by Ong, Tuan Hock

“…The aim of this paper is to forecast the passenger demand and market share of the Low-Cost Carriers (LCC) when the High-Speed Rail (HSR) commence operation in 2026 along the 350 km long Kuala Lumpur-Singapore (KL-SG) route with the possibility that the two-different transport mode will complement with each other. …”

Vibratory finishing on SLM-printed hip stem implant by Goh, Joo Hao

“…SLM printed parts are able to customize an implant best suited to the patient to be printed, heaping various long-term benefits. However, parts will have to be post-processed after fabrication due to the inherent unsuitable surface roughness characteristics of the parts. …”

Role of vegetation on beach run-up due to regular and cnoidal waves by Noarayanan, L., Murali, K., Sundar, V.

“…Although, several formulae have been derived in the past for estimation of run-up in laboratory studies for a variety of wave front structures, certain uncertainties still remain pertaining to flat slopes and long waves. To understand the performance characteristics of vegetation in attenuating run-up, a comprehensive experimental investigation was taken up. …”

A statistical fat-tail test of predicting regulatory regions in the Drosophila genome by Shu, Jian Jun, Li, Yajing

“…As compared with the existing fluffy-tail test, the first fatness coefficient is designed to reduce computational time, making the novel fat-tail test very suitable for long sequences and large database analysis in the post-genome time and the second one to improve separation accuracy between CRMs and non-CRMs. …”

Positive bias-induced Vth instability in graphene field effect transistors by Liu, W. J., Fang, Z., Wang, Z. R., Wang, F., Wu, L., Zhang, J. F., Wei, J., Zhu, H. L., Sun, Xiaowei, Tran, Xuan Anh, Ng, Geok Ing, Yu, Hongyu

“…The ΔVth of GFETs increases as stressing time and voltage increases, and tends to saturate after long stressing time. In the meanwhile, it does not show much dependence on gate length, width, and the number of graphene layers. …”

The application of graphene oxide in drug delivery by Pan, Yongzheng, Sahoo, Nanda Gopal, Li, Lin

“…Expert opinion: GO and its derivatives are highly attractive for the application to drug delivery due to their exceptional physiochemical properties and unique planar structure in spite of some existing challenges, such as the reproducibly smart functionalization of GO and the investigation of its long-term toxicology.…”

“Virtual encounters: the making and manifestations of Deleuze’s Bergsonism” by Lundy, Craig

“…From this one might surmise that Deleuze’s encounter with Bergson happens after and is influenced by his reading of Nietzsche (and Kant and Proust), and that this encounter happened not long before the creation of Difference and Repetition. …”

Randomness and early termination: what makes a game exciting? by Guo, G, Howison, S, Possamai, D, Reisinger, C

“…We establish key qualitative properties of the solution including concavity, monotonicity, convergence to a steady state for long remaining time and the asymptotic behaviour shortly before the terminal time. …”

Bank resolution mechanisms revisited: towards a new era of restructuring by Hryckiewicz, A, Kryg, N, Tsomocos, DP

“…We then explore whether those interventions work effectively in facilitating bank recovery and whether they reduce systemic risk in the long run. We use a unique granular bank-level dataset from 22 advanced economies covering the 1992–2017 period. …”

Filamentation of a relativistic proton bunch in plasma by Verra, L, Amoedo, C, Torrado, N, Clairembaud, A, Mezger, J, Pannell, F, Pucek, J, van Gils, N, Bergamaschi, M, Zevi Della Porta, G, Lopes, N, Sublet, A, Turner, M, Gschwendtner, E, Muggli, P, Agnello, R, Ahdida, CC, Andrebe, Y, Apsimon, O, Apsimon, R, Arnesano, JM, Bencini, V, Blanchard, P, Burrows, PN, Buttenschön, B, Caldwell, A, Chung, M, Cooke, DA, Davut, C, Demeter, G, Dexter, AC, Doebert, S, Farmer, J, Fasoli, A, Fonseca, R, Furno, I, Granados, E, Granetzny, M, Graubner, T, Grulke, O, Guran, E, Henderson, J, Kedves, MÁ, Kraus, F, Krupa, M, Lefevre, T, Liang, L, Liu, S, Lotov, K, Pakuza, C, Ramjiawan, RL, Spear, B

“…We show in experiments that a long, underdense, relativistic proton bunch propagating in plasma undergoes the oblique instability, which we observe as filamentation. …”

An object category specific mrf for segmentation by Kumar, MP, Torr, PHS, Zisserman, A

“…The resulting combination, which we call the object category specific mrf, suggests a solution to the problem that has long dogged mrfs namely that they provide a poor prior for specific shapes. …”

Hunting and the social lives of Southern Africa’s first farmers by Jones, M, Kapumha, R, Chirikure, S, Marshall, F

“…Comparisons with earlier and contemporaneous forager and herder sites in southern and eastern Africa show that hunting for social and economic purposes characterized the spread of farming and rise of complex societies in southern Africa. The long-term cultural integration of wild animals into food-producing societies is unusual from a Global South perspective and warrants reappraisal of forager/farmer dichotomies in non-Western contexts.…”

Ex vivo expansion and genetic manipulation of mouse hematopoietic stem cells in polyvinyl alcohol-based cultures by Khoo, HM, Meaker, GA, Wilkinson, AC

“…We recently developed a polyvinyl alcohol-based culture system that can support the long-term and large-scale expansion of transplantable mouse HSCs and methods to genetically edit them. …”

A comparison of methods for forecasting value at risk and expected shortfall of cryptocurrencies by Trucíos, C, Taylor, JW

“…Several procedures to forecast daily risk measures in cryptocurrency markets have been recently implemented in the literature. Among them, long-memory processes, procedures taking into account the presence of extreme observations, procedures that include more than a single regime, and quantile regression-based models have performed substantially better than standard methods in terms of forecasting risk measures. …”

Rationale and concerns for using JAK inhibitors in axial spondyloarthritis by Ahmed, S, Yesudian, R, Ubaide, H, Coates, LC

“…Treatments for individual patients need to be tailored to whichever organ is inflamed at that point in time but should also consider the presence of other inflamed organs, comorbidities, long-term safety and cost. axSpA is a treatable condition where low disease activity or remission should be the target in most patients. …”

Naturalistic multimodal emotion data with deep learning can advance the theoretical understanding of emotion by Angkasirisan, T

“…This multimodal emotion framework has the potential to provide novel, nuanced insights into long-standing questions, such as whether emotion categories are innate or learned and whether emotions exhibit coherence or degeneracy, thereby refining emotion theories. …”

Monstrans de droit, petition of right, and liability for Crown debt by Getzler, J

“…A vested right to property was seen as a stronger claim than an action to enforce an executory or precatory obligation, and as such could be claimed by a summary version of the petition of right known as monstrans de droit, a demonstration or plea of right. Tort claims for long remained outside the system, as ‘the king could do no wrong’; hence trespassory remedies such as assumpsit were generally unavailable. …”

Strike a pose: tracking people by finding stylized poses by Ramanan, D, Forsyth, DA, Zisserman, A

“…We develop an algorithm for finding and kinematically tracking multiple people in long sequences. Our basic assumption is that people tend to take on certain canonical poses, even when performing unusual activities like throwing a baseball or figure skating. …”
