With the increasing capabilities of the microelectronics technology, future particle detectors in high energy physics will be able to yield high-level features that are not only simple geometrical positions or energy measurement in the silicon sensors used ...
In this paper we enunciate and rigorously demonstrate a new lemma that, based on a previously proposed theorem, proves the identifiability of leverage points in state estimation with specific reference to the Least Absolute Value (LAV) estimator. In this c ...
In developed countries, the management of existing civil infrastructure is challenging due to evolving functional requirements, aging and climate change. Due to conservative approaches in construction design and practice, infrastructure often has hidden re ...
The tremendous structural and isomeric diversity of lipids enables a wide range of their functions in nature but makes the identification of these biomolecules challenging. We distinguish and quantify isomeric lipids using cold ion UV fragmentation spectro ...
Hydrogenolysis has emerged as one of the most effective means of converting polymeric lignin into monoaromatic fragments of value. Reported yields may be higher than for other methods and can exceed the theoretical yields estimated from measures of the con ...
In Mott polarimeters, the measurement of the spin polarization of an electron beam along two perpendicular quantization axes is commonly performed by collecting scattered electrons with four independent detectors placed azimuthally at 90 degrees from each ...
In developed countries, structural assessment of existing bridges should not be performed using the same conservative models that are used at the design stage. Field measurements of real behavior provide additional information for the inference of previous ...
The Internet of Things creates opportunities to develop data-driven design methodologies for smart cities. However, effects rather than causes are often measured in complex urban systems, requiring robust data-interpretation methodologies. Additionally, ef ...
The saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is a key parameter in many hydrological and climate models. Ksat values are primarily determined from basic soil properties and may vary over several orders of magnitude. Despite the availability of Ksat dat ...
The Duge pumped storage power plant in Norway currently experiences a problem with rotor-lifting. One of the two vertical 100 MW units lifts up off its bearings when operated above a certain load. The vertical forces on the units have been known to be marg ...
