Measurement of rain is made difficult by the high variability of the precipitation process, down to raindrop scale. Point measurements are generally accurate, but their lack of spatial representativeness is a significant limitation. Weather radars indirect ...
We present a new approach for spatial interpolation of experimental raindrop size distribution (DSD) spectra. The DSD is fundamental to the study and understanding of precipitation and its monitoring and modelling. It is measured insitu using disdrometers ...
A new technique for estimating the raindrop size distribution (DSD) from polarimetric radar data is proposed. Two statistical moments of the DSD are estimated from polarimetric variables, and the DSD is reconstructed using a double-moment normalisation. Th ...
Laminated and etched glazing unit for architectural integration of solar energy systems comprising a substrate delimited by two main faces and a multi-layered interference filter also delimited by two main faces, one main face of said substrate being adapt ...
Seismic response of joints which are found to be ubiquitous in rock masses is of great interest to rock engineers, geophysicists and seismologists. In the past years, wave propagation across rock joints has been the subject of extensive theoretical and exp ...
Retrieving the water-leaving reflectance from airborne hyperspectral data implies to deal with three steps. Firstly, the radiance recorded by an airborne sensor comes from several sources: the real radiance of the object, the atmospheric scattering, sky an ...
DAYLIGHT is a desirable architectural component that satisfies both visual and psychological needs of the occupants. Therefore it is essential to integrate this component in the design in a way that maximum daylight is guaranteed and a visually healthy and ...
In imaging and focusing applications, spherical aberration induces axial broadening of the point spread function (PSF). A transparent medium between lens and object of interest induces spherical aberration. We propose a method that first obtains both the p ...
Improving the aesthetic of solar thermal collectors would grant architects a huge potential for a perfect integration of solar panels into building façades: this can be achieved by coloured interference coatings on the cover glass. These coatings also open ...
