Experimental and numerical evaluation of aeroacoustic damping performance of in-duct double-layer orifice plates by Li, Jing

“…The results show that with the increase of ξ the sound absorption capability is increased, however, an exactly converse trend is appeared as the excitation frequency is beyond 350 Hz and it is also shown that the presence of the bias flow can enhance this effect. When it comes to the orifices distribution pattern, the diamond distribution exhibits more promising results. …”

Essays on blood supply management by Senga, Juan Ramon Liboro

“…The results show that more mature blood banks have more strategies available at their disposal when it comes to trying to maintain fill-rates. We also observe that the dynamic donation rate strategy results in lower fill-rates during disasters when the fill-rate is low despite being able to meet donation targets, and that multiple waves with short lead times exacerbate this effect. …”

A machine-learned approach for reducing airborne delays and environmental impact in terminal manoeuvring area using extended arrival management by Lim, Zhi Jun

“…Although COVID-19 temporarily reduced delays due to decreased traffic, many large hubs have now returned to pre-pandemic levels, with strong growth expected in the coming years. Air traffic management divides the airspace into three sections: the airport control zone (taxiing, takeoff, landing), the terminal manoeuvring area (TMA, for climbs and descents), and the en-route airspace (cruise). …”

Preparation of low-dimensional materials for plasmonic bio-sensing by Das, Chandreyee Manas

“…Also, when the thickness of the dielectric layer(s) above and/or below the SPR metal film is below a threshold value of 3 nm, the non-locality effect comes into picture where the metal can no longer be represented by a bulk permittivity. …”
