Three essays on corporate finance by Koh, Jee Youn

“…In Chapter 1, we examine externalities of tunneling carried out by business group firms. We find that acquirers belonging to Korean business groups (i.e., chaebols) and their targets in intragroup M&As realize negative and positive returns around the M&A announcement dates, respectively. …”

Al2O3-Cu hybrid nanofluid flow and heat transfer characteristics in the duct with various triangular rib configurations by Togun, Hussein, Homod, Raad Z., Sultan Aljibori, Hakim S., Abed, Azher M., Alias, Hajar, Hussein, Ahmed Kadhim, Biswal, Uddhaba, Al-Thamir, Mohaimen, Mahdi, Jasim M., Mohammed, Hayder I., Ahmadi, Goodarz

“…The study aimed to determine the optimal rib configuration and nanofluid concentration for enhancing heat transfer while minimizing friction losses. Key findings include: (1) the 60° rib configuration produced the highest local heat transfer coefficient, with the maximum occurring at the rib centers. (2) Increasing nanofluid concentration and Reynolds number enhanced heat transfer but reduced skin friction. (3) The optimal performance was achieved with 2 vol.% Al2O3–Cu at Re = 60,000. (4) Velocity contours revealed larger recirculation zones for 60° ribs compared to 45° and 90° configurations. (5) Turbulent kinetic energy was highest for 60° ribs, contributing to enhanced thermal performance. …”

Use of Dual Capillary Barrier as Cover System for a Sanitary Landfill in Singapore by Rahardjo, Harianto, Satyanag, Alfrendo, Harnas, F. R., Leong, Eng Choon

“…In this study, the performance of dual capillary barrier (DCB) in minimizing rainwater infiltration into a sanitary landfill in Singapore was investigated. The DCB consists of fine recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) and coarse RAP as the materials for the fine- and coarse-grained layers, respectively. …”

A community-based intervention (the Omama Project) improves neurodevelopment in impoverished 2-year-old Roma children: a quasi-experimental observational study by Fernandes, M, Matuskova, O, Babelova, R, Santosa, WB, Shaw, O, Hrica, P

“…Compared with RC, RI had higher 2-year cognitive (B = 0.15; 95% CI, 0.04, 0.25), language (B = 0.25; 95% CI, 0.11, 0.38) and fine motor (B = 0.08; 95% CI, 0.01, 0.16) scores. …”

Framing, friction, and the continuity of social movements : the case of the ambonese peace movement in Indonesia by Rohman, Abdul

“…This finding thus extends existing theory, first in proposing that frames may be dynamic not merely static and second in going beyond studies that have situated frames only when movements rise and peak to look at how frames operate to enable movements to continue.…”

Homologous Lympho-epithelial Kazal-type inhibitor domains delay blood coagulation by inhibiting factor X and XI with differential specificity by Ramesh, Karthik, Lama, Dilraj, Tan, Kang Wei, Nguyen, Van Sang, Chew, Fook Tim, Verma, Chandra Shekhar, Mok, Yu Keung

“…Despite being initially identified in the blood filtrate, LEKTI is a 15-domain Kazal-type inhibitor mostly known in the regulation of skin desquamation. In the current study, screening of serine proteases in blood coagulation cascade showed that LEKTI domain 4 has inhibitory activity toward only FXIa, whereas LEKTI domain 6 inhibits both FXIa and FXaB (bovine FXa). …”
