Chinese literary works translated into Baba Malay: a bibliographical study
Full text linkAnalyses 68 unique titles of Baba translated works published between 1889 and 1950. The titles are held in the libraries of the University of Malaya (UM), Science University Malaysia (USM), National University of Malaysia (UKM), the Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP), National University of Singapore (NUS), National Library of Singapore (NLS) and the British Library (BL). The results reveal three periods of active publication of Baba translated works. A total of 18 works were translated before World War I, followed by 10 just after the war, 39 titles were published before the break of the World War II and 1 was identified in 1950. There were 103 persons involved in the 68 translated works, some of whom are responsible for more than one title. The most prominent translators were Chan Kim Boon, Wan Boon Seng, Seow Chin San and Lee Seng Poh. Some of the translators were also be editors, illustrators or editors. There were 31 publishers and 21 printing presses involved, all were located in Singapore. The most active publishers were Wan Boon Seng, Kim Seck Chy Press and Nanyang Romanised Malay Book Co. The translated works mainly cover historical classical Chinese stories, chivalrous stories, romances, folklore and legends. The titles were priced between 10 cents to 2 dollars in Straits currency. The University of Malaya Library held the largest number of unique title (62) out of which 15 were unique titles
Towards patient-specific cardiovascular modeling system using the immersed boundary technique
No full textUsing social network information to discover truth of movie ranking
No full textThe real dataset consists of movie evaluations from IMDB, which provides a platform where individuals can evaluate movies on a scale of 1 to 10. If a user rates a movie and clicks the share button, a Twitter message is generated. We then extract the rating from the Twitter message. We treat the ratings on the IMDB website as the event truths, which are based on the aggregated evaluations from all users, whereas our observations come from only a subset of users who share their ratings on Twitter. Using the Twitter API, we collect information about the follower and following relationships between individuals that generate movie evaluation Twitter messages. To better show the influence of social network information on event truth discovery, we delete small subnetworks that consist of less than 5 agents. The final dataset we use consists of 2266 evaluations from 209 individuals on 245 movies (events) and also the social network between these 209 individuals. We regard the social network to be undirected as both follower or following relationships indicate that the two users have similar taste
Electrical characteristics of dielectric barrier discharge / Tay Wee Horng
Full text linkThe industrial application of the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) has a long tradition. However, the lack of understanding of some of its fundamental issues, such as the stochastic behaviors, is still a challenge for DBD researchers. In this project, considerable efforts to understand the fundamental aspects of DBD have been made. The aim of this work is to study the electrical characteristics of DBD to determine a suitable condition for utilization of the device for applications. Several diagnostic tools such as high-voltage probe, resistive current, charge measurement, and high-speed camera imaging were employed for the investigation. In order to study the electrical behaviors of DBD, the experimental work was carried out in two parts: current pulse amplitude statistical studies and the energy investigation. For the pulse amplitude statistical studies, the stochastic variation of the current pulse amplitude has been analyzed by the statistical method. The stochastic behavior of the discharge current amplitude has been compared with a proposed empirical equation of the distribution pulse height. This proposed statistical function is found to be in good agreement with the experimental discharge pulse amplitude variation for discharges with varying space gaps. This empirical equation successfully predicts the existence of two discharge regimes, which were observed from the experimental results. For the energy investigation, the DBD dissipation energy was studied experimentally and numerically. A dynamic circuit model constructed with Matlab Simulink accurately simulated the discharge energy of DBD. The surface resistance introduced in this electrical model represents the average effect that effectively accounts for the resistance encountered by the charges between the discharging and non-discharging regions on the dielectric. The expanded QV Lissajous can be reasonably explained by the fact that the total energy is summed by the energy of the DBD discharge and the energy consumed by the spreading

charges on the dielectric surface. By having the experimental results accurately fitted with the simulated results from the model, the efficiency of discharge can be obtained from the electrical modeling. The efficiency of the DBD has been found to be higher with a smooth surface compared to a rough surface. The efficiency is reduced when the applied voltage is increased. Based on the energy and current pulse amplitude distribution model, the DBD system can be designed according to the desired condition by controlling the required energy efficiency and pulse height distribution
You can't come back
No full textYou Can’t Come Back is a comedy film produced by Comic Sans Productions, as part of an undergraduate Final Year Project (FYP) in the Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information (WKWSCI), Nanyang Technological University (NTU). The short film was produced by Cheryl Lee Xin Ying, Guan Yue (Francis), Shermane Wong and Tay Jun Wen, under the supervision of Mr. Daniel Heng.
This report aims to give insight into the above-mentioned comedy short film, exploring the rationalisations and key considerations that went into the formative research, conceptualisation of the narrative structure and story thematics, along with the production timelines and finances.Bachelor of Communication Studie
Wat vinden bewoners van hun BENG?
No full textVanaf eind 2020 moeten alle nieuwe gebouwen in Nederland bijna energieneutrale gebouwen (BENG) zijn, conform het Europese Directief voor Energieprestaties van Gebouwen (EPBD). Voor woningen en woongebouwen in Nederland [1] betekent dit dat de energiebehoefte voor verwarming+koeling en het primair energiegebruik dienen te worden beperkt tot 25 kWh/m2.jr, grosso modo vergelijkbaar met een EPC van 0,2. Het percentage duurzame energieopwekking dient bovendien minimum 50% te bedragen. Iedereen is enthousiast over de Big BENG, maar levert de markt wel dat wat de bewoners waarderen? Wat leren we van meer dan vijf jaar onderzoek naar bewonerservaringen aan de TU Delft? BENG hebben nood aan een zorgzamer ontwerp, een waakzamere uitvoering en een verregaande samenwerking tussen bedrijven. Gebruiksevaluaties kunnen slim worden ingezet om comfortproblemen te detecteren. Bewoners van BENG moeten echter ook bijkomende informatie krijgen en de renovatiemarkt vraagt een extra stimulans
