Industrial policy refraction: how corporate strategy shapes development outcomes in Brazil by Zylberberg, E

“…Refraction is not categorical, but a matter of degree. My findings are brought to bear on three traditionally disparate bodies of research –industrial policy, corporate strategy and institutional theory – extending each and also bringing them into fruitful communion with one another.…”

Shape classification network with spatial attention module for skeletal malocclusion classification framework / by Muhamad Farhin Harun, 1993-, author 656076, Azurah A. Samah, supervisor 514573, Haslina Hashim, 1981-, supervisor 634760, Fakulti Komputeran 538688

An innovative stiffened I-shaped damper to improve the behavior of the concentrically braced frames by Hasan Nayel, Israa, Khaleel Nayel, Waleed, Ghamari, Ali, Putra Jaya, Ramadhansyah

“…Therefore, in this paper, an innovative metallic damper is considered numerically and parametrically to enhance the behavior of the CBF system. Accordingly, an I-shaped shear damper (stiffened diagonally by stiffeners) directly attached to the diagonal member of the CBF is proposed and studied parametrically and numerically. …”

Numerical modeling and simulation of shape memory allows using the mesh-free method by Ren, Ji

“…This thesis represents the first instance in which the capability of mesh-free methods for the modeling of shape memory alloys (SMAs) is explored. Being a relatively recent computational tool, mesh-free source codes are not easily available compared with the easy access to various finite element source codes. …”

3D spine shape estimation from single 2D DXA by Bourigault, E, Jamaludin, A, Zisserman, A

“…In this study, we propose an automated general framework to estimate the 3D spine shape from 2D DXA scans. We achieve this by explicitly predicting the sagittal view of the spine from the DXA scan. …”

Heterogeneity in definitions of surgical site infection after cranial surgery limits the validity of research findings in neurosurgery: a systematic review by Majidi, N, Sivakumar, A, Vogt, A, Ranganathan, S, Ashkan, K, Price, SJ, Lee, KS

“…This heterogeneity has hindered the ability to draw conclusions about the effects of interventions, with only 4.0% of authors accounting for this in their findings. It is important to be cautious when reviewing studies that report SSI-CRAN outcomes without acknowledging this heterogeneity, as the validity of their reported evidence may be limited. …”
