damping of a full-scale cable with a pair of passive–on magnetorheological (mr) dampers was tested. a cable of 215.58m long with the first mode frequency of 0.658hz was tensioned horizontally in cable prefabrication factory. two mr dampers were attached to the cable in an angle in the plane perpendicularly to the cable axis in 5m length from the cable anchorage. the applied voltage level was 0v...

Abstract The quasi‐biennial oscillation (QBO) impacts the Madden‐Julian Oscillation (MJO) activity with a stronger MJO in QBO easterly (QBOE) than westerly (QBOW) winters. However, this relationship is poorly represented current generation climate models. For first time, paper applies stratospheric zonal‐mean nudging subseasonal prediction system to capture it. Two strong cases QBO‐neutral wint...

The AM Signalling System (AMSS), now a published ETSI standard [2], has been designed within the DRM Coding and Multiplexing (DRM-CM) group. It uses low bitrate phase modulation of the AM carrier to add a small amount of digital information to existing analogue AM broadcasts on short-, mediumand long-wave, giving similar functionality to that provided by the Radio Data System (RDS) on the FM ba...

In this paper we propose an automated system able to detect volume-based anomalies in network traffic caused by Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. We designed a system with a two-stage architecture that combines more traditional change point detection approaches (Adaptive Threshold and Cumulative Sum) with a novel one based on the Continuous Wavelet Transform. The presented anomaly detection syst...

Extratropical SSTs can be influenced by the “reemergence mechanism,” whereby thermal anomalies in the deep winter mixed layer persist at depth through summer and are then reentrained into the mixed layer in the following winter. The impact of reemergence in the North Atlantic Ocean (NAO) upon the climate system is investigated using an atmospheric general circulation model coupled to a mixed la...

We examine two prominent upper mantle velocity anomalies in the southwest Pacific, the Tonga slab anomaly and the corresponding ov. erlying mantle wedge anomaly, using data collected during a combined land-sea deployment of temporary seismometers. The linear geometry and small interstation spacing of the instruments yield high-resolution data along a cross section of the Tonga subduction zone, ...

  Electrocochleography (ECoG) records the electrophysiologic activity of the most peripheral part of the auditory system, the inner ear cochlea and the 8th nerve. Auditory evoked potentials being recorded are Cochlear Microphonic (CM) and Summating Potential (AP). In order to provide the proper background for laboratory research and introducing an ECoG curve of a model animal, it was decided to...
