The Role of Monsoon-Like Zonally Asymmetric Heating in Interhemispheric Transport [PDF]
While the importance of the seasonal migration of the zonally averaged Hadley circulation on interhemispheric transport of trace gases has been recognized, few studies have examined the role of the zonally asymmetric monsoonal circulation.

Sidewall Buckling of Equal-width RHS Truss X-Joints [PDF]
This paper presents a new design methodology for equal-width rectangular hollow section (RHS) X-joints failing by sidewall buckling. In the new approach, a slenderness parameter is defined based on the elastic local buckling stress of the sidewall ...

Environmental enrichment rescues survival and function of adult-born neurons following early life stress [PDF]
Adverse experiences early in life are associated with the development of psychiatric illnesses. The hippocampus is likely to play pivotal role in generating these effects: it undergoes significant development during childhood and is extremely reactive to

Aerodynamic Implications of a Bio‐Inspired Rotating Empennage Design for Control of a Fighter Aircraft [PDF]
This dissertation presents an analysis of the aerodynamics for an aircraft using a novel, bio-inspired control system. The control system is a rotating tail, that is inspired by the way in which birds use their tail to control their flight.

Using multiplexers to study the statistics of quantum phenomenon in one-dimensional wires [PDF]
The quantum point contact (QPC) is a one-dimensional constriction with the differential conductance quantised in units of $G_Q=2e^2/h$. However, the transport behaviour below the first plateau is still not fully understood, including the 0.7 anomaly and ...
