Database and Application Programming Interface Development for Rotational Spectroscopy by Cheung, Jasmine So Yee

“…A database of spectroscopic data serves as the foundation of the automation pipeline for assigning spectral lines to species. While there are existing databases available for use, we developed our custom database, named SAAGAdb, and an application programming interface (API) to access the database to fulfill the needs of SAAGA. …”

Fullwave modeling of coplanar-waveguide discontinuities for applications in filter design and metamaterial characterization by Gao, Jing

“…Coplanar waveguide (CPW) has been finding wide applications in microwave integrated circuit (MIC) and monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) due to several advantages it offers over microstrip lines. Typical discontinuities characteristics are an integral part of practical circuit design. …”

Effects of hemodynamic shear stress on circulating tumor cells by How, Yunhan

“…MDA-231-C3 was circulated and recovered repeatedly to obtain a series of flow-selected breast cancer cell lines (231-S1 to 231-S6). The effect of fluid shear stress on CTC survival was studied by quantifying the cell viability and level of apoptosis at 0-hr, 12-hr and 24-hr time points of circulation. …”
