New magnetic intensity-variometers

An Array Experiment with Magnetic Variometers Near the Coasts of South-east Australia

An array of magnetic variometers has been operated in the south-east corner of the Australian mainland, observing the coast effect simultaneously in two dimensions for the first time. The observations are presented as sets of variograms in the time domain and as contour maps of certain parameters in the frequency domain. Vertical field response functions are determined for each station, and the...

A finite element model to simulate magnetic field distribution and laboratory studies in wet low-intensity magnetic separator

Low-intensity magnetic separators are widely used in the research works and the industry. Advancement in the magnetic separation techniques has led to an expansion in the application of this method in different fields such as enrichment of magnetic mineral, wastewater treatment, and medicine transfer in the human body. In the mineral processing industry, the main application of wet magnetic sep...

Earthquake intensity distributions: a new view

Pioneering work by Nicolas Ambraseys and many collaborators demonstrates both the tremendous value of macroseismic data and the perils of its uncritical assessment. In numerous publications he shows that neglect of original sources and/or failure to appreciate the context of historical accounts, as well as use of unreliable indicators such as landsliding to determine intensities, commonly leads...

Magnetic-Field-Induced Intensity Revivals in Harmonic Generation

Longitudinal intensity normalization of magnetic resonance images using patches

This paper presents a patch based method to normalize temporal intensities from longitudinal brain magnetic resonance (MR) images. Longitudinal intensity normalization is relevant for subsequent processing, such as segmentation, so that rates of change of tissue volumes, cortical thickness, or shapes of brain structures becomes stable and smooth over time. Instead of using intensities at each v...
