Flexible Platform Composed of T‑Shaped Micropyramid Patterns toward a Waterproof Sensing Interface by Niming Peng (17442472)

“…These structures are patterned uniformly and largely on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) skin by the new process of two-step magnetic induction. The waterproofing is related to the breakthrough pressure and the liquid repellency, both of which are a function of structural characteristics, <i>D</i>, and material properties, θ_Y. …”

AZ2.0 by Binay Panda (768771)

“…The updated genome assembly (v2.0) yielded 3- and 3.5-fold increase in N50 and N75, <br>respectively; 2.6-fold decrease in the total number of scaffolds; 1.25-fold increase in the number of <br>valid transcriptome alignments; 13.4-fold less mis-assembly and 1.85-fold increase in the <br>percentage repeat, resulted due to removal of mis-assembly and closure of gaps fromover the earlier <br>assembly (v1.0). …”

The mean and variance of the cable length can be independently controlled within the antenna model. by Lishibanya Mohapatra (759979)

“…Parameters used for the polymerization and depolymerisation rate were <i>r</i> = 370 s^-1, <i>d</i> = 45 s^-1, <i>k</i>_<i>off</i> = 0.5 s^-1(red) and 50 s^-1(blue); for chosen values of <i>k</i>_<i>off</i>, the rate <i>w</i> was calculated from <a href="http://www.ploscompbiol.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1004160#pcbi.1004160.e005" target="_blank">Eq 1</a> for the mean length. …”
