A Correlation-Based Electromagnetic Time Reversal Technique to Locate Indoor Transient Radiation Sources

Marcos Rubinstein, Zhaoyang Wang, Qi Li

To overcome the multipath interference in locating transient electromagnetic (EM) radiation sources in an indoor environment, we propose a criterion that calculates the correlation between back-propagated signals from observation points, to be used in EM t ...

Casting position effects on bond performance of reinforcement bars

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Francesco Rafael Alberto Moccia

The phenomena associated with the consolidation of fresh concrete (bleeding and plastic settlement) are commonly considered significant for the bond performance of reinforcement. However, rules to take care of such influence for design are not consistent a ...

Better Patch Stitching for Parametric Surface Reconstruction

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Zhantao Deng, Jan Bednarík

Recently, parametric mappings have emerged as highly effective surface representations, yielding low reconstruction error. In particular, the latest works represent the target shape as an atlas of multiple mappings, which can closely encode object parts. A ...

Evaluation of the ray-casting analytical algorithm for pencil beam scanning proton therapy

Ye Zhang, Sojin Shim

For pencil beam scanned (PBS) proton therapy, analytical dose calculation engines are still typically used for the optimisation process, and often for the final evaluation of the plan. Recently however, the suitability of analytical calculations for planni ...

Experimental demonstration of ray-rotation sheets

Toralf Scharf

We have built microstructured sheets that rotate, on transmission, the direction of light rays by an arbitrary, but fixed, angle around the sheet normal. These ray-rotation sheets comprise two pairs of confocal lenticular arrays. In addition to rotating th ...

An embedded system for quasi real-time lighting computation based on sky monitoring

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Yujie Wu

Lighting simulation plays a significant role in the architectural design and evaluation of performance parameters of buildings. The general method of assuming a virtual sky in lighting simulation may lead to mismatch with the real situation, which conventi ...
