Long-term effects of early life rainfall shocks on foundational cognitive skills: evidence from Peru by Pazos, N, Favara, M, Sánchez, A, Scott, D, Behrman, J

“…Global warming is changing precipitation patterns, particularly harming communities in low-and-middle income countries (LMICs). Whilst the long-term effects of being exposed to rainfall shocks early in life on school-achievement tests are well-established, there is little population-based evidence from LMICs on the mechanisms through which these shocks operate. …”

Defect detection of GFRP composites through long pulse thermography using an uncooled microbolometer infrared camera by Anwar, Murniwati, Mustapha, Faizal, Abdullah, Mohd Na’im, Mustapha, Mazli, Sallih, Nabihah, Ahmad, Azlan, Mat Daud, Siti Zubaidah

“…Challenges in detecting these defects arise from varying responses based on the geometrical shape, thickness, and defect types. Long Pulse Thermography (LPT), utilizing an uncooled microbolometer and a low-resolution infrared (IR) camera, presents a promising solution for detecting both depth and impact defects in GFRP materials with a single setup and minimal tools at an economical cost. …”

The effect of bonding structure of diamond like carbon (DLC) film with surface nickel coating upon laser annealing by Xu, Naiyun, Tsang, Siu Hon, Tan, Chong Wei, Teo, Hang Tong, Wang, Xincai, Tay, Beng Kang

“…The Raman spectra shows more pronounced change for a-C films with Ni coating than those without Ni coating upon laser annealing, and the Raman features also suggest that the Ni surface coating can enhance formation of the six-ring graphitic-like sp2 ordering. Electrical measurement shows a low resistive characteristic for both set of films due to laser induced conducting sp2 clusters formation.…”
