An unusual arrangement of accessory fissures observed in left lung by Pandiaraja, Madhumitha, Mogali, Sreenivasulu Reddy

“…We report a very rare case of three pul-monary fissures in a plastinated specimen of a left lung, producing a unique lobar pattern consisting of four lobes. To our knowledge, this is the first report of three complete fissures dividing the left lung into four distinct lobes. …”

High wavenumber coherent structures in low re apg-boundary-layer transition flow—a numerical study by Lo, Edmond Yat-Man, Chen, Weijia

“…The tip part is associated with the later first ring-like vortex, while the rear part with the remainder of the Λ-vortex. These observations help to shed light on the generation of turbulence, which is dominated by high wavenumber coherent structures.…”

Permanent magnet brushless DC wheel motor for electric vehicles by Chen, Guhong.

“…The proposed motor is a permanent magnet square-wave motor whose rotor with rare earth magnets forms the exterior of the motor which can be fitted with a wheel tyre to realize the direct drive for each rear wheel of an EV. The interior stator with its windings is to be rigidly mounted onto the suspension and frame structure of the vehicle. …”

Integrated structural health monitoring of highway bridges in Singapore by Tjin, Swee Chuan, Pan, Tso Chien, Ngo, John Quoc Nam, Rupali Suresh, Zheng, Ruitao, Liu, Duan, Leong, Chee Lai

“…The FBG strain sensors were calibrated by mounting them onto the surface of a reinforcement rebar alongside the electrical strain gauges, and excellent linearity (which is an important desirable feature) of the output response of the FBG strain sensor against the input applied load was observed. …”

A boundary-fragment-model for object detection by Opelt, A, Pinz, A, Zisserman, A

“…</p> <p>We demonstrate the following results: (i) the BFM detector is able to represent and detect object classes principally defined by their shape, rather than their appearance; and (ii) in comparison with other published results on several object classes (airplanes, cars-rear, cows) the BFM detector is able to exceed previous performances, and to achieve this with less supervision (such as the number of training images).…”

Effects of infilled wall opening on load resisting capacity of RC frames to mitigate progressive collapse risk by Qian, Kai, Lan, Dong-Qiu, Fu, Feng, Li, Bing

“…Moreover, the infilled walls with or without openings may change the position of rebar fracture of the beams. Thus, it was incorrect to simplify multi-story infilled frames into single-story substructures.…”

Experimental investigation of pile-supported/floating breakwaters integrated with oscillating-water-column converters by He, Fang

“…However, given the same geometry of the two pneumatic chambers, the rear chamber did not function as efficiently as the front chamber in terms of extracting wave energy. (4) Hydrodynamic performance of a floating breakwater with asymmetric pneumatic chambers (a narrower chamber on the seaside and a wider chamber on the leeside) was experimentally investigated. …”
