Gaseous phenomena such as clouds, fog, and mist have been difficult to render in realistic monoscopic imaging environments. Such phenomena are transparent, cast shadows, have dynamic behavior, and are of variable density. This paper describes a method based on splatting, billboarding, and alpha-blending that works well in a realistic real-time stereo imaging environment. Splatting is used to re...

System reductions or network equivalents are frequently used to reduce the scale of simulated power systems in electromagnetic transient simulation tools, and even more so in real-time software. However, complex hardware-in-the-loop studies involving multiple devices under test or focusing on widearea phenomena such as geomagnetically-induced currents or wide-spread ferroresonance require full ...

In parasitic-gap constructions an illicit gap inside a syntactic island becomes acceptable in combination with an additional licit gap, a result that has interesting implications for theories of grammar. Such constructions hold even greater interest for the question of the relation between grammatical knowledge and real-time language processing. This article presents results from two experiment...

— pin-level fault injection, heavy-ion radiation, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) — and their use in the validation of MARS, a faulttolerant distributed real-time system. The objectives of this study are: (i) to validate the fault-tolerance features of the MARS system, and (ii) to gain a better understanding of the features and impact of the three fault injection techniques. Coverage mea...

This paper numerically investigates the application induction heating in weld-based additive manufacturing to reduce residual stresses. To avoid time-consuming transient electromagnetic calculation, the induction heat is assumed to be constant in the arc coordinate. Thermo-electromagnetic coupling analysis is performed only at a typical time to obtain the representative distribution of inductio...
