The performance improvement potential with the optimisation of vane geometry and port timing angle in oil-injected Rotary Vane Compressors (RVCs) is not yet fully understood. Commonly, studies have used single-phase CFD models without consideration of lubricating oil. However, the presented analy...

Background/Objectives: Cerebral visual impairment (CVI) is the leading cause of visual disability in children, resulting from damage to the brain’s visual processing pathways. Although ocular structures may be intact, functional vision, the use of vision in daily tasks, is often significantl...

The lack of new materials with desired processability and functional characteristics remains a challenge for metal additive manufacturing (AM). Therefore, in this work, a new promising AISI 316L-based alloy with better performance compared to the commercially available one is developed via t...

This research was designed to explore science-fiction and fantasy (SFF) posters, specifically those related to films and television shows, from the perspective of their owners, examining their potential as sources of social and cultural significance and meaning. The research explored these i...

Background/Objectives: Eye movements provide important insights into face processing. Hidden Markov models of eye movements (EMHMMs) are a relatively new approach that identifies common patterns across observers, moving beyond region-of-interest analyses. Prior EMHMM studies with static faces have typ...

Financial Technology (FinTech) is fundamentally reshaping the accounting profession, accelerating the shift from routine transactional activities to more strategic, data-driven functions. This transformation demands advanced digital competencies, yet the scholarly understanding of these skills remains fragmented. To...

The natural frequencies and damping characterisation of a new aerospace grade composite material were investigated using a modified impulse method combined with the half power bandwidth method, which is applicable to the structures with a low damping. The composite material of interest ...

Background/Objectives: Triboelectrification in fluid systems, and specifically in hydrofluorocarbon (HFC)-based propellants, used in pressurised metered-dose inhalers (pMDIs) remains understudied despite its impact on aerosol behaviour and does delivery. This study investigates how ethanol concentration affects char...
