Realizability of planar point embeddings from angle measurements

Majed El Helou, Adam James Scholefield, Frederike Dümbgen

Localization of a set of nodes is an important and a thoroughly researched problem in robotics and sensor networks. This paper is concerned with the theory of localization from inner-angle measurements. We focus on the challenging case where no anchor loca ...

Modeling the kinetics of the main peak and later age of alite hydration

Alexandre Reda Constantin William Caleb Ouzia

The aim of this thesis is to understand the mechanisms underlying the main hydration peak and later ages of alite hydration; it proposes new mechanistic models for these two stages. Alite is the main constituent of Portland Cement (PC), and is responsible ...

Evaluation of the CloudSat surface snowfall product over Antarctica using ground-based precipitation radars

Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli

In situ observations of snowfall over the Antarctic Ice Sheet are scarce. Currently, continent-wide assessments of snowfall are limited to information from the Cloud Profiling Radar on board the CloudSat satellite, which has not been evaluated up to now. I ...

AAM: An Assessment Metric of Axial Chromatic Aberration

Sabine Süsstrunk, Majed El Helou, Frederike Dümbgen

Knowledge of lens specifications is important to identify the best lens for a given capture scenario and application. Lens manufacturers provide many specifications in their data sheets, and multiple initiatives for testing and comparing different lenses c ...

Development of a new rapid, relevant and reliable (R-3) test method to evaluate the pozzolanic reactivity of calcined kaolinitic clays

Karen Scrivener, Ruben Anton Snellings, Mohsen Ben Haha, François Henri Avet, Adrian Alujas Diaz

The present paper introduces a new rapid, relevant and reliable (R-3) test to predict the pozzolanic activity of calcined clays with kaolinite contents ranging from 0 to 95%. The test is based on the correlation between the chemical reactivity of calcined ...

Tunneling conductivity in anisotropic nanofiber composites: a percolation-based model

Claudio Grimaldi

The critical path approximation ('CPA') is integrated with a lattice-based approach to percolation to provide a model for conductivity in nanofiber-based composites. Our treatment incorporates a recent estimate for the anisotropy in tunneling-based conduct ...

TC 238-SCM - hydration and microstructure of concrete with SCMs: State of the art on methods to determine degree of reaction of SCMs

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Ruben Anton Snellings

This paper is the work of working group 2 of the RILEM TC 238-SCM. Its purpose is to review methods to estimate the degree of reaction of supplementary cementitious materials in blended (or composite) cement pastes. We do not consider explicitly the wider ...

Curved artificial compound-eyes for autonomous navigation

Ramon Pericet Camara

Natural compound-eyes consist of a large number of ommatidia that are arranged on curved surfaces and thus are able to detect signals from a wide field of view. We present an integrated artificial compound-eye sensor system with enhanced field of view of 1 ...

Estimation of prosthetic knee angles via data fusion of implantable and wearable sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Arami, Arnaud Barré, Roderik Berthelin

In this work, we studied a combination of embedded magnetic measurement system in a knee prosthesis and wearable inertial sensors to estimate two knee joint rotations namely flexion-extension and internal-external rotations. The near optimal sensor configu ...

Equivalency points: Predicting concrete compressive strength evolution in three days

Ian Smith, Karen Scrivener, Marco Viviani

Knowledge of the compressive strength evolution of concrete is critical for activities such as stripping formwork, construction scheduling and pre-stressing operations. Although there are several procedures for predicting concrete compressive strength, rel ...

Monolithic MEMS-based reflectarray cell digitally reconfigurable over a 360° phase range

Anja Skrivervik, Julien Perruisseau-Carrier

In this letter, we present a reconfigurable reflectarray cell operating at 12 GHz and fabricated in a monolithic MEMS process. A 5-bit digital control allows reconfiguration of the reflection phase over the full 360deg range, while alleviating the impact o ...

12C(n, n), (n, n') and (n, n') 3a reactions at 14.1 MeV

The 12C(n, n), (n, n') and (n, n') 3 α reactions have been studied at 14.1 MeV by a time-of-flight method, with a scintillating scatterer. The angular distributions and integrated cross sections were obtained for the following channels: Q = 0 (0+) and -4.4 ...
