A computational study of spin glasses and its spin coupling interactions by Wong, Yi Ren

“…These models may be differentiated from one another by the critical temperature and critical exponents measured or calculated from experiments and simulations which give rise to different universality classes in different regimes. We will explore in this thesis the critical phenomena of two separate new SG models − The Spin Glass Cellular Automata (SGCA) model and the Heterogeneous Spin Glass (HSG) model while reviewing other known SG models studied in literature. …”

Understanding trends in social fluidity in western europe: class structural change and the OED triangle by Goldthorpe, J, Bukodi, E

“…Where downward mobility increases, the growing motivation and the capacity of more advantaged parents to protect their children against déclassement constitutes a powerful source of resistance to change in endogenous mobility regimes.…”

Crustal strain in the Marmara pull‐apart region associated with the propagation process of the North Anatolian Fault by Karakaş, Çagil, Armijo, R., Lacassin, R., Suc, J.-P., Melinte-Dobrinescu, M. C.

“…Our results provide tight constraints on the main pulse of folding associated with propagation of the tip of the NNAF: it took place in the late Miocene to earliest Pliocene (5.60 to 5.04 Ma), before deposition of undeformed Pliocene marine sediments. The folding is mostly coeval with the Messinian Salinity Crisis and accommodated several kilometers of shortening at the fault tip. …”

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

“…A left minor fissure courses obliquely across the upper lobe, distin-guishing the lingula from the rest of the upper lobe while an inferior accessory fissure demarcates the antero-medial basal segment from the other bron-chopulmonary segments of the lower lobe . …”

The effects of processing conditions on the morphology of single conjugated polymers. by Yeo, Hui Lin.

“…These emissive centers of the collapsed chain were proposed to be intrachain aggregates consisting of closely π-stacked segments, therefore possessing weak oscillator strength and an extended radiative lifetime. …”

Design, synthesis, characterization and property study of topological structures of DNA by Li, Dawei

“…It is also shown unprecedentedly in our investigation that the size of DNA writhe could be accurately engineered by altering T-rich and A-rich segments in the target duplex DNAs. In addition, the results of our studies confirmed that the intrinsic curvatures of organismal DNAs alone could lead to the generation of duplex backbone self-crossings in their relaxed forms and the backbone self-crossings of those organismal DNAs could be readily confirmed through atomic force microscopic examination. …”

The antecedents and consequences of a layered architecture of mobile handsets by Lee, Alvin Wei Ming

“…The industry is seen to be evolving into three distinct segments; Handset, Operating System and Content. This thesis will draw upon relevant literature that applies the theory of modularization to the mobile phone industry. …”

A Framework for Robust Long-Term Voltage Stability of Distribution Systems by Nguyen, Hung D., Dvijotham, Krishnamurthy, Yu, Suhyoun, Turitsyn, Konstantin

“…IEEE Power injection uncertainties in distribution power grids, which are mostly induced by aggressive introduction of intermittent renewable sources, may drive the system away from normal operating regimes and potentially lead to the loss of long-term voltage stability (LTVS). …”

Hybrid-duplex communications for multi-UAV networks : an outage probability analysis by Tan, Ernest Zheng Hui, Madhukumar, A. S., Sirigina, Rajendra Prasad, Krishna, Anoop Kumar

“…Specifically, at low transmit power regimes, it is shown that the HBD-UCS attains lower uplink and downlink outage probability than an HD-UCS, as the UAV operating altitude is increased.…”

Exponential tail local Rademacher complexity risk bounds without the Bernstein condition by Kanade, V, Rebeschini, P, Vaškevičius, T

“…Our results apply to improper prediction regimes not directly covered by the classical theory, such as optimal model selection aggregation for arbitrary classes (including infinite and non-convex classes), and early-stopping/iterative regularization; the Bernstein condition does not hold in both examples.…”

Relational persistent homology for multispecies data with application to the tumor microenvironment by Stolz, BJ, Dhesi, J, Bull, JA, Harrington, HA, Byrne, HM, Yoon, IHR

“…We demonstrate that relational topological features can extract biological insight, including the dominant immune cell phenotype (an important predictor of patient prognosis) and the parameter regimes of a data-generating model. The methods provide a quantitative perspective on the relational analysis of multispecies spatial data, overcome the limits of traditional PH, and are readily computable.…”

Search of the early O3 LIGO data for continuous gravitational waves from the Cassiopeia A and Vela Jr. supernova remnants by Sudhir, Vivishek

“…We carry out the searches in the LIGO data from the first six months of the third Advanced LIGO and Virgo observing run, using the Weave semi-coherent method, which sums matched-filter detection-statistic values over many time segments spanning the observation period. No gravitational wave signal is detected in the search band of 20--976 Hz for assumed source ages greater than 300 years for Cas A and greater than 700 years for Vela Jr. …”
