Structural Health Monitoring (SMH) has the potential to provide reliable, quantitative data on the real condition of structures. Early detection of damage or deterioration can enable preventive repair and reduce maintenance costs. Although obtaining data f ...
Successful behavior depends on effective communication between distant brain regions. Moreover, disturbance of effective communication can cause neurological symptoms like apraxia, dyslexia or object agnosia. Interregional communication can be assessed by ...
Standardization can be performed only in a field in which the knowledge of the physical phenomena and of the behavior of the given installation is sufficiently known. The role of the universities is to perform research in order to clarify such these points ...
Suppose we train an animal in a conditioning experiment. Can one predict how a given animal, under given experimental conditions, would perform the task? Since various factors such as stress, motivation, genetic background, and previous errors in task perf ...
Negative Poisson's ratio behavior has been uncovered in cellular solids that comprise a solid matrix with a square array of circular voids. The simplicity of the fabrication implies robust behavior, which is relevant over a range of scales. The behavior re ...
For understanding the behavior of a gas close to a channel wall it is important to model the gas-wall interactions as detailed as possible. When using molecular dynamics simulations these interactions can be modeled explicitly, but the computations are tim ...
The thermal effects on the Ultra High Performance Fiber Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) behavior are still not completely known. Under high temperatures, the processes that interact at early age are thermo-activated. All the experimental results obtained with ...
This paper considers multianticipative car-following behavior (i.e., driver behavior that includes responses to multiple vehicles ahead). Two well-known models incorporating multivehicle stimuli (Bexelius and Lenz) are recalled, and various modifications a ...
The number of probabilistic approaches to ``classic'' distributed systems problems such as reliable broadcast, consensus, or leader election, has further increased recently. Probabilistic algorithms, possibly starting from probabilistic system models, have ...
We develop and test a new approach for measuring travel well-being that accounts for the routine nature of travel. We postulate that when people are in a routine, they dont fully consider their travel happiness. Only when people evaluate their options and ...
