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. …”

Black hole binary formation and mergers in supermassive black hole discs by Rowan, C

“…</p> <p>Here, hydrodynamical simulations are performed of BH-BH interactions in AGN discs, showing that the energy of such encounters can be efficiently dissipated by the surrounding gas through a combination of accretion and gravitational drag, leaving behind a bound binary BH system (BBH). …”

Cell-derived nanovesicles from mesenchymal stem cells as extracellular vesicle-mimetics in wound healing by Neupane, Yub Raj, Handral, Harish K., Syed Abdullah Alkaff, Chng, Wei Heng, Venkatesan, Gopalakrishnan, Huang, Chenyuan, Lee, Choon Keong, Wang, Jiong-Wei, Sriram, Gopu, Dienzo, Rhonnie Austria, Lu, Wen Feng, Yusuf Ali, Czarny, Bertrand, Pastorin, Giorgia

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. …”

Pseudo-randomness in cryptography by Bansal Arushi

“…In addition, the paper defines the criteria for a cryptographically secure pseudo-random number generator (CSPRNG) and outlines the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) randomness test suite, which offers a framework for evaluating the randomness quality of RNG outputs. The conclusions drawn from this research underscore the indispensable requirement of high-quality randomness in protecting cryptographic infrastructures from advanced threats, calling for continuous advancements and evaluations in PRNG technologies.…”

Bacterial phylogenetic reconstruction from whole genomes is robust to recombination but demographic inference is not by Hedge, J, Wilson, DJ

“…However, bacteria frequently exchange regions of their genomes by a process called homologous recombination, which violates a fundamental assumption of phylogenetic methods. …”

Assessing surface seals of soils on slopes by Liu, Chenying

“…This phenomenon is attributed to the formation of a thin dense layer called surface seal on the surface soil. The surface seal is created by interaction forces between water and soil particles such as compaction, attachment, dispersion and so on. …”

The space-times of post-capitalist transformation: More-than-human affects in French and Catalan eco-communities by Schramm, E

“…I have conducted an ethnographic study of three eco-communities in Southwestern France and Catalonia in a broadly comparative vein and have drawn on the disparate body of literature around post-capitalist transformations and eco-communities on one hand, and more-than-human and non-representational geographies on the other. …”
