Magical realism and representations of the cold war in Southeast Asia by Lye, Kit Ying

“…However, while there are acknowledgements by scholars that religious myths and pre-existing animistic beliefs continue to influence the way that the indigenous people understand their worlds, Southeast Asian authors (unlike many of their postcolonial peers), do not actively employ magical realism in their exploration of history and civil unrest in their writings, and when they do, are not employed to the same degree as postcolonial authors in other regions. …”

The great problems are in the street : a phenomenology of men's stranger intrusions on women in public spaces by Vera-Gray, Fiona

“…Secondly it explores reconnecting feminist research on VAWG to women’s ordinary experience of men’s intrusion, revealing how the necessary focus on policy has led to a steep rise in knowledge about some forms of VAWG to the detriment of investigating men’s violence and intrusion in women’s everyday lives. …”

Secure and secret cooperation in robotic swarms by Castelló Ferrer, Eduardo, Hardjono, Thomas, Pentland, Alex 'Sandy', Dorigo, Marco

“…We propose a system where robots in a swarm, to cooperate towards mission completion, have to "prove" their integrity to their peers by exchanging cryptographic proofs. We show the implications of this approach for two different swarm robotics missions: foraging and maze formation. …”

Domain dynamics response to polarization switching in relaxor ferroelectrics by Li, Yang, Lin, Wei, Wang, Cong, Zhang, Shumin, He, Yunfei, Gao, Weibo, Zhao, Shifeng

“…Two fundamentally different domain switching pathways and dynamic characteristics are revealed: one steep, bipolar-like switching between two degenerate polarization states; and another flat, multi-step switching process with a thermodynamically stable non-polar mesophase mediating the degenerate polarization states. …”

Evolution of volcanic rifted margins: origin of seaward dipping reflectors with insights from flexure and 'process-oriented’ gravity modelling by Morgan, RL

“…Results from a case study interpreting a set of seismic reflection surveys from the Orange Basin, offshore Namibia show good general agreement between observed Airy isostatic anomalies and calculated gravity anomalies with T_e in the range 1-3km. The steep gradient that is often observed in the Airy isostatic gravity anomaly at rifted margins is therefore a useful proxy for the seaward edge of the dykes that intrude the crust prior to seafloor spreading.…”

Additive manufacturing of multiple materials by selective laser melting : Ti-alloy to stainless steel via a Cu-alloy interlayer by Tey, Cher Fu, Tan, Xipeng, Sing, Swee Leong, Yeong, Wai Yee

“…In this work, the selective laser melting (SLM) process was used to manufacture MM parts which feature steep material transitions from 316L stainless steel (SS) to Ti-6Al-4V (TiA) through an interlayer of HOVADUR® K220 copper–alloy (CuA). …”

Understanding Public and Nonprofit Managers' Motivation Through the Lens of Self-Determination Theory by Chen, Chung-An, Bozeman, Barry

“…The findings show that public managers exhibit stronger service motivation, identified motivation, external motivation, and amotivation when compared to their nonprofit peers. In addition, public managers' strong external motivation and amotivation compromise their overall level of self-determination, suggesting that they may be less motivated by their work requirements than are nonprofit counterparts.…”

Dynamic response of magnetic skyrmions in multilayer heterostructures by Satywali, Bhartendu

“…The field and frequency-sweep FMR measurements reveal two distinct resonant modes originating from skyrmions: a low frequency (LF) resonance exhibiting a steep proportionality to the external out-of-plane magnetic field (H), and a high frequency (HF) resonance which is less sensitive to variations in H. …”
