Application of Electric Field to Developing Falling Films using Wire-Plate Electrode Configuration- An Experimental Study

Experimental investigation of Electrohydrodynamic developing falling film flow of transformer oil has been conducted within an inclined rectangular channel and hydrodynamic characteristics of the flow have been revealed. The electric field ...

Tiger abundance and density estimates from non-invasive sources: Camera-trap and genetic capture-recapture analyses.

Detecting Wildfire Smoke Onset from Fixed View Camera Networks.

Native Entomophages in the Regulation Cameraria ohridella Deschka & Dimic Populations: Potential and Limitations for Control.

Scoring-Rule Dependence and Sign Instability in Vision-Language Covariate-Shift Monitoring for Camera Sensors.

森林边缘地带的中级捕食者

Abstract Fragments and edges account for most remaining forest habitats globally. Apex predators and megaherbivores often decline in these degraded habitats while smaller generalist omnivores can persist or thrive in forest edges, especiall...

Rethinking Visual Anthropology.

For many years the field of visual anthropology has been dominated by a focus on the production and study of ethnographic film, leading many anthropologists to dismiss it as of little importance to their work. This book shows that the scope...

Social ecological factors affecting substance abuse in Ghana (West Africa) using photovoice

INTRODUCTION: Substance abuse is an important public health issue affecting West Africa; however, there is currently a dearth of literature on the actions needed to address it. The aim of this study was to assess the risks and protective fa...

Archaeology

The “science of old things,” archaeology is marked by its care, obligation, and loyalty to things, from ancient cities in the Mexican heartland and megalithic monuments in Britain to the perfume jars of the ancient Greek city-state and Leic...

Analysis of methods for accounting cargo vehicles in traffic flow of a regulated crossroad

Introduction. The formation of a ‘cargo frame’ around large cities leads to a change in the composition of the traffic flow on bypass roads, and an increase in the total traffic flow of trucks of various categories. In addition, the active ...

Terrestrial Remote Sensing of Snowmelt in a Diverse High-Arctic Tundra Environment Using Time-Lapse Imagery

Snow cover is one of the crucial factors influencing the plant distribution in harsh Arctic regions. In tundra environments, wind redistribution of snow leads to a very heterogeneous spatial distribution which influences growth conditions f...

UAV Image Mosaicking Based on Multiregion Guided Local Projection Deformation

The goal of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) image mosaicking is to create natural- looking mosaics without artifacts due to the parallax of the image and relative camera motion. UAV remote sensing is a low-altitude technology and the UAV imag...

Seasonal monopolization of small carrion by a scarab beetle in terra firme Amazonian rainforests

Abstract Small vertebrate carcasses represent an abundant resource in tropical rainforests, where scavengers play a key role in nutrient recycling, enhancing productivity in nutrient-poor habitats such as Amazonian terra firme forests. Howe...

Synthetic Tactile Sensor for Macroscopic Roughness Estimation Based on Spatial-Coding Contact Processing

Traditional tactile sensors primarily measure macroscopic surface features but do not directly estimate how humans perceive such surface roughness. Sensors that mimic human tactile processing could bridge this gap. This study proposes a met...

An Object Detection Algorithm for Orchard Vehicles Based on AGO-PointPillars

With the continuous expansion of the orchard planting area, there is an urgent need for autonomous orchard vehicles that can reduce the labor intensity of fruit farmers and improve the efficiency of operations to assist operators in the pro...

Evaluation of Leakage Currents of Semiconductor Packages Due to High-Voltage Stress Under an Immersion Cooling Environment

As data centers expand, immersion cooling systems are gaining attention for thermal management of memory devices. To enable widespread adoption, it is essential to evaluate the impact of coolants on the reliability of memory packages. In th...

PROCEDURE ENABLING SIMULATION AND IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS OF OPTICAL EFFECTS IN CAMERA-BASED TIME-OF-FLIGHT SENSORS

This paper presents a simulation approach for Time-of-Flight cameras to estimate sensor performance and accuracy, as well as to help understanding experimentally discovered effects. The main scope is the detailed simulation of the optical s...

The influence of roadway characteristics and built environment on the extent of over-speeding: An exploration using mobile automated traffic camera data

Over-speeding is a pivotal factor in fatal traffic crashes globally, necessitating robust speed management strategies to augment road safety. In 2021, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported over 12 000 speed-related fat...

Infrared Thermographic Evaluation Following Hemilaminectomy in Dogs with Thoracolumbar Intervertebral Disc Extrusion: A Pilot Study

(1) Background: Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD) represents one of the most frequently encountered neurological disorders in canine patients and often necessitates surgical decompression by means of hemilaminectomy. Objective methods for ...

Automatic visual inspection system for quality control of the sandwich panel and detecting the dipping and buckling of the surfaces

In this paper, an automated inspection system is proposed for detecting the location and measuring the size of existing dipping or buckling on the sandwich panel surface using an RGB camera and an inexpensive linear laser. The proposed meth...
