A micro-macro and continuum-discontinuum coupled model and corresponding computer codes are developed in this thesis for rock dynamics study. Firstly, a new micromechanical model for describing the elastic continuum based on the underlying microstructure o ...
Farmers in developing countries will in the future be confronted with major changes. The ability to cope with these challenges rests on their capability to relate future problems to current behavior. Our approach investigates this capability and consists i ...
Presentation at the International symposium on Museums of the Future, which was organized for the presentation of the first draft of KMoMA. The presentaiton outlined the approach that cultural institutions can be civic, social, and cultural cornerstones fo ...
Ecotoxicological effect studies often expose test organisms under optimal environmental conditions. However, organisms in their natural settings rarely experience optimal conditions. On the contrary, during most of their lifetime they are forced to cope wi ...
The number of vehicles hitting the road each day is rapidly increasing, and several problems, such as traffic conges- tion or driver safety, can no longer be solved in the same fashion as before. Intelligent transportation systems could potentially solve p ...
After introducing the challenges and failures of first generation e-government (identified as e-Gov 1.0), and the rhetoric of the next generation of e-government efforts (identified as e-Gov 2.0), this paper presents an analysis of the promises of m-govern ...
This paper describes a system with several fixed cameras that provide Third-Person Perspective (3PP) to the video-through HMD of the user. Once done, our system uses an algorithm to make intelligent switches between the different cameras in order to provid ...
This paper analyzes housing market boom-bust cycles driven by changes in households' expectations. We explore the role of expectations on productivity and other shocks originating from the housing market, the credit market and the conduct of monetary polic ...
This talk starts by defining what is Quality of Experience. It then provides an overview of state of the art in Quality of Experience in multimedia systems. It will finally conclude by presenting challenges and trends that need to be further addressed. ...
New low-temperature inserts compatible with an existing hyperpolarizer were developed to dynamically polarize nuclei in large samples. The performance of the system was tested on 8 ml glassy frozen solutions containing 13C-labeled molecules and doped with ...
