Heat transfer enhancement in drag-reducing channel flow by Yeo, Keng Hoo

“…Since the discovery of the Toms effect (Toms, 1948), polymers as drag-reducing additives have been widely used to reduce the undesired drag that occurs over long-distance transportation of liquids. However, less attention has been focused on this area of research, especially in the case of re-circulating flow systems. …”

Motivational factors' relationships with sports and exercise participation of students at a Singapore University by Guo, Deborah Weixian

“…Motivational factors for sports participation tend to be more automated than exercise participation, which may better promote long-term adherence for physical activity. While relevant authorities may employ the initial use of social media platforms to encourage exercise participation, emphasis should be placed on intrinsic variables as they surface. …”
