Abstract
The calibration of paleoclimate proxies is one of the key problems in the study of paleoclimate at present. Historical documentary records of climate are suitable for calibration on dating and the climatic implication of the proxy data in a climatological sense. A test calibration [...]Abstract
The limited funding available for roadway capacity expansion and the growing funding gap, in conjunction with the increasing congestion, creates a critical need for innovative lane use management options for Indiana. Various cost-effective lane use management strategies have been [...]Abstract
Engines for A/B/C class vehicles place high emphasis on economic viability. Thus, many innovations focus on"br" optimum system integration of cost effective technologies, which are individually optimized and controlled within"br" the interrelations of engine, exhaust gas aftertreatment [...]Abstract
Creating predictive computer simulations, i.e. virtual prototypes, of complex granular industrial processes has many challenges. In this paper we review recent advances in creating such virtual prototypes. We introduce the open-source code MercuryDPM [1], which is often applied [...]
Abstract
Geotechnical in-situ test methods provide valuable data for asset development, operation, and decommissioning. For confidence in test results, industry typically requires calibration and verification of in-situ test sensors to be conducted in a calibration laboratory. A calibration [...]Abstract
Even the most experienced geotechnical engineer is likely to assume that the results of cone penetration tests are unquestionably accurate, reliable and repeatable. There are, however, multiple factors, some that have nothing to do with the soil properties, that need to be carefully [...]Abstract
Despite substantive growth in utilization of positron emission tomography (PET) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), evidence on its prognostic value is limited. We aimed to comprehensively evaluate the prognostic literature of PET perfusion measures according to the most recent American [...]Abstract
This paper describes a system for pedestrian detection in infrared images implemented and tested on an experimental vehicle. A specific stabilization procedure is applied after image acquisition and before processing to cope with vehicle movements affecting the camera calibration. [...]Abstract
:This paper presents an autocalibration method to determine the pose of a stereo vision system based on knowing the geometry of the ground in front of the cameras. This pose changes considerably while the vehicle is driven, therefore it is good to know constantly the pose of the camera [...]
