Welding procedures for repairing corroded tubular structures are commonly used; however, composite material repairs becoming popular since they do not use heat sources that might cause accidents. This paper provides a detailed description of the CFRP patch repair application in steel members with circular perforation originated from prolonged corrosion process. The results experimental tests on...

CONTEXT Controversy exists about the most appropriate seating position for children with cerebral palsy (CP) to promote energy conservation and maximize upper-extremity function. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Sixteen journal articles published after 1980 were identified by searching allied health, medical, and occupational and physical therapy data bases and evidence-based medicine reviews using speci...

Abstract A measurement setup and method is presented that serves to determine constants characterising the timing behaviour of thermal infrared cameras. continuously rotating chopper wheel used periodically obscure reveal cutout a mask plate. The exposed fraction main measured quantity. Irregularities in are determined from timestamps light beam detectors head. suitable for both kinds cameras, ...

In this research, we consider the problem of verifying user identity based on keystroke dynamics obtained from free-text. We employ a novel feature engineering method that generates image-like transition matrices. For feature, convolution neural network (CNN) with cutout achieves best results. A hybrid model consisting CNN and recurrent (RNN) is also shown to outperform previous research in fie...

Galaxy clusters identified from the Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SZ) effect are a key ingredient in multi-wavelength cluster-based cosmology. We present comparison between two methods of cluster identification: standard Matched Filter (MF) method SZ finding and using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). further implement show results for `combined' identifier. apply to simulated millimeter maps several ...

A series of experiments have been performed to determine the mechanisms of failure in compressively loaded laminated plates in the presence of stress gradients generated by a circular cutout. Real time holographic interferometry and in situ photomicrography of the hole surface along with strain gauge measurements are used to study the progression of failure. The test specimens are multilayered ...

Background: Polymer gel dosimetry is still the only dosimetry method for direct measuring of threedimensional dose distributions. MRI Polymer gel dosimeters are tissue equivalent and can act as a phantom material. In this study the obtained isodose maps with PAGAT polymer gel dosimeter were compared to those calculated with EGSnrs for singleshot irradiations of 8 and 18 mm collimators of...
