Insiders and Outsiders: Comparing Urban Impressions between Population Groups

There is a growing interest in social and urban computing to employ crowdsourcing as means to gather impressions of urban perception for indoor and outdoor environments. Previous studies have established that reliable estimates of urban perception can be o ...

Random field-based modeling of size effect on the longitudinal tensile strength of clear timber

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Alireza Farajzadeh Moshtaghin, Steffen Franke

In the current study, a random field-based size effect model has been proposed for the longitudinal tensile strength of clear timber. Since the failure mode is brittle, the problem is basically an extreme value problem of finding the distribution of minima ...

Evaluation of a Computer-Based Training Program for Enhancing Arithmetic Skills and Spatial Number Representation in Primary School Children

Calcularis is a computer-based training program which focuses on basic numerical skills, spatial representation of numbers and arithmetic operations. The program includes a user model allowing flexible adaptation to the child's individual knowledge and lea ...

Shape-Selective Assembly of Anisotropic, Deformable Microcomponents Using Bottom-Up Micromanufacturing

Gunjan Agarwal

A technique for shape-selective directed assembly of anisotropic, deformable, chemically-identical microcomponents onto patterned rigid templates based on shape and size differences is modeled and demonstrated. The assembly method not only controls the sel ...

Modelling the Size Effects on the Mechanical Properties of Micro/Nano Structures

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Amir Musa Abazari

Experiments on micro- and nano-mechanical systems (M/NEMS) have shown that their behavior under bending loads departs in many cases from the classical predictions using Euler-Bernoulli theory and Hooke's law. This anomalous response has usually been seen a ...

Size effects in drift capacities of URM walls

Katrin Beyer, Sarah Petry

Examining the results of a large set of quasi-static cyclic tests on unreinforced masonry (URM) walls showed that the drift capacity of URM walls reduces with increasing wall size. Such a size effect is of concern since most wall tests were carried out on ...

On-chip synthesis of fine-tuned bone-seeking hybrid nanoparticles

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Mohammad Mahdi Hasani-Sadrabadi, Morteza Mahmoudi

Aims: Here we report a one-step approach for reproducible synthesis of finely tuned targeting multifunctional hybrid nanoparticles (HNPs). Materials & methods: A microfluidic-assisted method was employed for controlled nanoprecipitation of bisphosphonate-c ...

Size effect model for the edge strength of glass with cut and ground edge finishing

Pieter Christian Louter

The edge strength of glass is influenced by the size of the surface (near the edge) which is subjected to tensile stresses. To quantify this size effect, 8 series of single layer annealed glass beam specimens (as-received glass) were subjected to in-plane ...

Influence of boundary conditions and size effect on the drift capacity of URM walls

Katrin Beyer, Sarah Petry

In codes the drift capacity of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls is often estimated as a function of the failure mode and the aspect ratio. The empirical relationships are based on results from quasi-static cyclic tests on single URM walls, which were teste ...

Crowd-based quality assessment of multiview video plus depth coding

Touradj Ebrahimi, Philippe Hanhart

Crowdsourcing is becoming a popular cost effective alternative to lab-based evaluations for subjective quality assessment. However, crowd-based evaluations are constrained by the limited availability of display devices used by typical online workers, which ...
