Land reclamation - from conventional vertical drain methods to a combined vacuum preloading and electro-osmosis with horizontal drainage enhanced geotextile sheets by Wong, Lung Anthony

“…The major challenges include the extra time required for consolidating the clay slurry and the formation of a working platform for construction, which are not necessary if sandy fill material is adopted. Consolidation analysis of drained reclamation work is a key aspect in assessing the performance of the ground improvement work conducted. …”

Financial forecasting using meta-cognitive fuzzy neural networks by Singh Akhand Pratap

“…Some potential ways to address the above issues could be usage of synthetic data through time-series models to train the model till the test date; usage of manual inferences drawn from the indicators to make judgements about the present day; usage of multiple machine learning models and combining the results from all; usage of dynamic feature selection mechanism to make improvements to the prediction; and usage of dynamic thresholds that are dependent on the market conditions. …”

An experimental and simulation study of chip transportation behaviour in gundrilling by Tnay, Guan Leong

“…From the experiments, terminal velocities of typical gun drill chips at different range of particle Reynolds number were determined to construct the unique drag curve. Based on the findings, a computational fluid dynamic (CFD) numerical model was developed to predict the lateral drag forces with respect to the particle Reynolds number. …”

Determination of operating point for a propulsive wing UAV using CFD by Chan, Chee Shuan

“…CFD simulations were performed using a 2D RANS k-ε turbulence model and the rotating flow was captured using the moving reference frame method. Lift and drag were obtained for different angle of attacks via a control volume analysis of CFD results. …”
