Seismic behavior of interior concretebeam-column joints with non-seismic and limited seismic detailing by Li, Qingyuan.

“…Recent post-earthquake investigations indicated that extensive damage occurred as a result of excessive shear deformation and severe strength degradation of the beamcolumn joints in non-seismically detailed frames, thus leading to full collapse of structures. …”

Promoting strategic internal communication in governance to enhance employee creativity in organization by Nur Hidayah, Shamsul Azhar, Fadzida, Ismail, Noor Akma, Abu Bakar

“…The results indicate that when internal communication and leadership communication in governance are symmetrical, individuals are more likely to receive feedback from a variety of interpersonal sources, including supervisors, colleagues, and peers from different departments. This enhances creativity. …”

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. …”

The Importance of Bystanders in Threat Assessment and Management by Borum, Randy, Rowe, Mary

“…Numerous studies of targeted violence (e.g., mass shootings and school shootings), have demonstrated that peers and bystanders often have knowledge of an attacker’s intentions, concerning communication, and troubling behavior before the attack occurs. …”

Experiences of recreational running among persons with visual impairment (VI) in Singapore by Tay, Claire Marie En Xin

“…Among the limited research, it is known that people living with sensory impairments in Singapore were more likely to engage in insufficient PA than their peers. The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences of recreational running as a form of PA among individuals with VI in Singapore. …”

Critical temperatures in thermocompression gold stud bonding by Zhang, G. G., Ang, X. F., Chen, Z., Wong, Chee C., Wei, J.

“…Under similar bonding conditions, the critical temperature is lower for a harder substrate than for a softer substrate, primarily because of larger interfacial shear stresses. This is supported by the observation on the interfacial shear stress distribution at the bonding interface based on finite element simulation models of substrates with different hardness.…”
