This PhD Thesis work was aimed at investigating the potentiality of tungsten-base materials as structural materials for the future thermonuclear fusion reactors in attempting to develop reduced activation tungsten-base materials with high strength and suff ...
Fiber bridging is regularly encountered in model delamination tests of unidirectional fiber reinforced composites. However, characterization of the bridging tractions is rather difficult. One way to indirectly evaluate the bridging traction distribution is ...
A cost-effective and convenient approach for color imaging is to use a single sensor and mount a color filter array (CFA) in front of it, such that at each spatial position the scene information in only one color channel is captured. To estimate the missin ...

A method for controlling the spectral response of light sensitive semiconductor elements in an array (8) using an electric control signal (Vop) applied to said semiconductor elements. The light sensitive semiconductor elements could be a single photon aval ...
We present a CMOS image sensor with deep-subwavelength, digital 1-T pixels designed for use in a digital film concept known as Gigavision (GV) camera. In GV, the levels of gray in the picture are derived from the concentration of activated pixels. Activate ...
Hygro-thermal ageing of composite materials introduces a modification in the material properties of its constituents and the development of stresses that can lead to severe local damage like fracture of the reinforcing fibers and de-bonding of the latter f ...

In this paper, sensor network scenarios are considered where the underlying signals of interest exhibit a degree of sparsity, which means that in an appropriate basis, they can be expressed in terms of a small number of nonzero coefficients. Following the ...
The relation between sensor resolution and the optics of a digital camera is determined by the Nyquist sampling theorem: the sampling frequency should be larger than twice the maximum frequency of the image content coming out of the optical system. If a lo ...
A statistical model for fracture of aligned-whisker-reinforced metals was used to interpret tensile data of a TiB-reinforced titanium alloy. From this analysis, a TiB whisker strength of 8.0 GPa with a Weibull modulus of 2 was predicted. The analysis is co ...
In GyM, a linear magnetized plasma device, low-frequency electrostatic fluctuations are measured by means of Langmuir probes. To complement electrostatic probe measurements of plasma turbulence and the study of plasma structures, a nonperturbative direct i ...
