Associative polymers provide a high resistance factor due to their thickening effect. However, the high resistance factor may simply reflect pore plugging in the porous media. This offers a significant limitation for the deep propagation of the benef...

Few-shot essay grading: weighted prototypical networks for ordinal text classification. (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
WIJAYASEKARA, V.A., MARTIN, K., WIRATUNGA, N., MASSIE, S. and WIJEKOON, A. [2025]. Few-shot essay grading: weighted prototypical networks for ordinal text classification. To be presented at the 25th European conference on artificial intelligence 2025 (ECAI-2025), 25-30 October 2025, Bologna, Italy.

Automated Essay Scoring (AES) presents a key opportunity to improve student experience while reducing the administrative burden of academic staff. However existing methods for AES are reliant on large volumes of data and fail to consider the ordinal...

There is a current research gap based on exploring the information behaviour of visual artists (professional, semi-professional, and amateur) and, particularly, the impact of their information needs satisfaction on their creativity. This research aim... Read More about An exploration into the relationship between information needs satisfaction and creativity of visual artists in Greece..

Characterization of resin-infused nonwoven natural fiber-reinforced epoxy composites for renewable energy structural applications: comparative experimental and finite element analysis. (2025)
Journal Article
OWEN, M.M., WONG, L.S., ACHUKWU, E.O., SHUIB, S. and MD DIN, N.B. 2025. Characterization of resin-infused nonwoven natural fiber-reinforced epoxy composites for renewable energy structural applications: comparative experimental and finite element analysis. Polymer composites [online], Early View. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1002/pc.70064

Natural resource-based composites are biodegradable, eco-friendly, and sustainable; however, variations in their properties and performance quality present significant challenges. This study presents the fabrication and performance evaluation of nonw...
