Policy makers set out a range of initiatives with the buzzwords ‘natural resources’, ‘raw materials’, ‘resource efficiency’, and ‘sustainable management’ of natural resources and raw materials. An analysis of the practice highlights that there are quite di ...
CAMEA is a novel instrument concept, thus the performance has not been explored. Furthermore it is a complex instrument using many analyser arrays in a wide angular range. The performance of the instrument has been studied by use of three approaches: McSta ...
During the design of CAMEA extensive simulations and cinematic calculations were performed to explore the waste parameter space. These have led to a far better understanding of the instrument performance as well as new ideas to improve the instrument. Many ...
We examine the performance of stochastic-gradient learners over connected networks for global optimization problems involving risk functions that are not necessarily quadratic. We consider two well-studied classes of distributed schemes including consensus ...
We propose the construction of a highly innovative spectrometer – CAMEA – offering Continuous Angular and Multiple Energy Analysis. Combining indirect time-of flight with multiple consecutive analyser arrays, this instrument will provide massive flux on th ...
CAMEA is a new instrument concept so it is possible that the construction could or maintenance of the instrument would be hampered by technical details. In order to prevent this a technical predesign have been performed. This is not a final technical solut ...
Automatic visual detection of instruments in minimally invasive surgery (MIS) can significantly augment the procedure experience for operating clinicians. In this paper, we present a novel technique for detecting surgical instruments by constructing a robu ...
Gottfried Erich Rosenthal (1745-1813) was born and died at Nordhausen (now in Thuringia). As his ancestors, he became a Master-Baker after his studies at the local Gymnasium, where he excelled in mathematics. In 1779, after reading the 1772 treatise by Del ...
The Santis Tower was instrumented in May 2010 and, to this date, more than 400 flashes were successfully recorded. Lightning current waveforms and their time-derivatives are measured at two different heights along the tower (24-m and 82-m AGL). In this pap ...
The firm known today as Haag-Streit was established in 1858 at Bern by F. Hermann and H. Studer, the latter being succeeded in 1865 by J. H. Pfister, to make precision scientific instruments. In the same year, H. Wild became professor of physics at the Uni ...
