Upcycling of homogeneous food waste in 3D printing food inks by Lim, Fiona Xin Ying

“…Through 3D food printing, rheological tests, and storage tests, we gained insights into viscosity, shear-thinning behaviour, recovery characteristics, and long-term stability of the inks, assessing their impact on printability. …”

Electrical characterization of polymeric semiconductors for printed and flexible electronics by David John Antonio Daileg Maulit

“…Towards this objective, various flexible substrates such as polymers, paper, or fabrics can be utilised leading to a lightweight and thinly printed component. The objective of this project is to explore investigate and explore semiconductor materials for organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs), focusing on achieving high and stable performance. …”

Regulation of microRNA degradation in Caenorhabditis elegans via the E3 ubiquitin ligase EBAX-1 by Stubna, Michael William

“…Some rapidly degraded miRNAs owe their instability to a mechanism termed target-directed miRNA degradation (TDMD), whereby unusual miRNA binding sites with extensive complementarity to the miRNA promote a conformational shift in AGO, leading to the recruitment of an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex containing the substrate receptor ZSWIM8. …”

Development of single seedling nursery tray for the System of Rice Intensification by Zubairu, Usman Bashar

“…It was made with 924 cone shape seed pickers for attachment of individual seeds and dropping the seeds into 924 SRI tray holes. The fastest picking and dropping level was reported at 150 g/L of tapioca and water solution. …”

Novel single-step hydrophobic modification of polymeric hollow fiber membranes containing imide groups : its potential for membrane contactor application by Zhang, Yuan, Wang, Rong, Zhang, Lizhi, Fane, Anthony Gordon

“…Experiments reveal that the modification changed the membrane morphology and structure, resulted in surface pore opening and thinning down of the membrane skin layer. As a compromise between the membrane hydrophobicity and mechanical strength, 10–30 min were considered as appropriate modification times for the PAI membranes. …”

Interface dynamics in electroosmotic flow systems with non-Newtonian fluid frontiers by Chen, Di-Lin, Liu, Shu-Yan, Luo, Kang, Yi, Hong-Liang, Yang, Chun

“…Generalized power-law fluids alter velocity and interfacial charge profiles, with shear thinning enhancing ion transport to lower overlimiting current thresholds and shear thickening broadening the limiting current region (with hindered ion transport). …”

Recovery of Herschel-Bulkley Fluid Parameters from Video via Differentiable Simulations by Eastman, John M.

“…Our approach aims to accurately recover physical parameters and achieve high-fidelity 3D reconstructions from single-view videos of fluids, even those with complex rheological behaviors like shear thinning and thickening. In this study, we apply our method to a Herschel-Bulkley fluid, namely ketchup, under two different real-world conditions: a 50mm column collapse and being squeezed from a bottle. …”

Master curves for FENE-P fluids in steady shear flow by Yamani, Sami, McKinley, Gareth H.

“…An exact solution for the rheological predictions of the FENE-P model in steady simple shear flow is available [Sureshkumar et al., Phys Fluids (1997)], but the resulting nonlinear and nested set of equations do not readily reveal the key shear-thinning physics that dominates at high Wi as a result of the finite extensibility of the polymer chain. …”

Organic solvent-assisted control of hydrogel structures and properties by Zhou, Quan

“…This became possible for the following two reasons: 1) the addition of ethanol makes SA solution exhibit the upper critical solution temperature (UCST) behavior in which gelation occurred when the temperature was reduced below the sol-to-gel transition temperature, and 2) the presence of ethanol significantly increased the viscosity of SA solution and enhanced its shear-thinning feature, thus making it ideal for 3D printing. …”

Second order multi-object filtering with target interaction using determinantal point processes by Teoh, Timothy Zhisheng

“…Our approach relies on posterior moment formulas for the estimation of a general hidden point process after a thinning operation and a superposition with a Poisson Point Process (PPP), and on suitable approximation formulas of the determinantal point process hypothesis. …”
