How to choose a law review: an empirical study by Cofone, I, Malé, P-JG

“…The optimal publication strategy for authors depends on whether they want to maximize prestige among peers or rather their impact on the discipline, as well as on authors’ career stage and risk averseness. …”

Design, implementation, and extension of thermal invisibility cloaks by Zhang, Youming, Xu, Hongyi, Zhang, Baile

“…A thermal invisibility cloak, as inspired by optical invisibility cloaks, is a device which can steer the conductive heat flux around an isolated object without changing the ambient temperature distribution so that the object can be “invisible” to external thermal environment. …”

Programmable morphing, electroactive porous shape memory polymer composites with battery-voltage Joule heating stimulated recovery by Lai-Iskandar, S., Li, Wenhao, Tsang, S. H., Lee, Y. H., Teo, Edwin Hang Tong

“…Our method can be compatible with kirigami techniques for the design of hierarchical and combinatorial shape-change structures. 3DC not only serves as an intrinsic heater but, during synthesis, its cell walls also act as a confinement framework for architecting porosity within 3DC-eSMPCs, which can be actuated with low-voltage (7.5 V, <2 W). …”

Singapore Shipping Trust. by Goh, Wei Qin., Lee, Suat Cheng., Tan, Li Ping.

“…We also explore the shipping trusts’ financial performance through comparison with the Singapore market, as well as with Singapore REITs, Singapore shipping stocks and their foreign peers. Results from CAPM show presence of risk-adjusted returns for the equal-weighted shipping trust portfolio in the before-subprime period, indicating the attractiveness of shipping trusts during better economic conditions. …”

Boosting energy efficiency and selectivity of glucose oxidation toward glucuronic acid in high-frequency ultrasound using multicavity CuO catalytic cavitation agents by Xie, Z, Mahendran, V, Jonnalagadda, US, Fan, Q, Su, X, Fischer, AF, Tan, M, Tao, L, Jérôme, F, Kwan, JJ, Valange, S, Choksi, TS, Amaniampong, PN, Liu, W

“…The present study demonstrates that by appropriately controlling the acoustic parameters (e.g. duty cycle, peak negative pressure and irradiation time) and reaction conditions (e.g. gas atmosphere and the addition of catalytic cavitation agent), it is possible to steer the selectivity of sono-oxidation of glucose towards glucuronic acid, the most value-added product, whilst minimizing the energy input to drive the sonochemical oxidation reaction.…”
