-
(American Institute of Physics, 2003)The active magnetic regenerator (AMR) uses a magnetic solid as a thermal storage medium and as a working material in a refrigeration cycle. Thermodynamically coupled to a heat transfer fluid, the regenerator produces a ...
-
(6th Construction Specialty Conference / 6e Conférence spécialisée sur le génie de la construction, 2005)New information technologies for the construction industry are emerging that emphasize the integration of project information and the ability to work with comprehensive, computer-based building models. These hold the ...
-
(Annual Conference of the Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 1996)Computer-integrated Construction (CIC) must rely on the project information being shared among various computer applications used by many project participants. This information sharing is based on the development of AEC ...
-
(MRC Technical Summary Report #1172, 1972)By modifying the simplex method of linear programming, we are able to present an algorithm for $l_1 $-approximation which appears to, be superior computationally to any other known algorithm for this problem.
-
(IEEE Access, 2017)This paper considers the detection and localization of a human subject in complex environments using an ultra-wideband impulse radar. The subject is remotely sensed by extracting micro-motion information, such as the ...
-
(IEEE, 2013-02)A new optimization method for the design of nearly linear-phase IIR digitalfilters that satisfy prescribed specifications is proposed. The group-delay deviation is minimized under the constraint that the passband ripple and ...
-
(Sensors, 2019)Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are now readily available worldwide and users can easily fly them remotely using smart controllers. This has created the problem of keeping unauthorized UAVs away from private or sensitive ...
-
(Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2013-02)An approach for detecting and removing impulse noise from speech using the wavelet transform is proposed. The approach utilizes the multi-resolution property of the wavelet transform, which provides finer time resolution ...
-
(Springer, 2015)Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) can form any specialized cell type found in the body making them an excellent tool for regenerative medicine applications. Directed differentiation of PSCs into specific phenotypes can be ...
-
(Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2020)Crack formation under tensile forces is a major weakness of concrete. Cracks make concrete vulnerable to extreme environment due to ingress of water and harmful compounds from surrounding environment. Even though concrete ...
-
(CSCE Annual Conference and Annual General Meeting, 2017)Commercial and residential buildings are responsible for substantial emissions of greenhouse gases, which greatly promote global warming. Sustainable construction practices offer a partial solution to this problem, with ...
-
(Institute for Construction Informatics, Technische Universität Dresden, Germany, 2005-07-18)Changes brought about from advances in information technology for the architecture, engineering, and construction industries (construction IT) are not purely technical, but must be accompanied by significant changes to the ...
-
(Engineering, 2016)China’s green investment needs up to 2020 are ¥1.7 trillion–2.9 trillion CNY ($274 billion–468 billion USD) per year. Estimates of financing requirements are provided for multiple sectors, including sustainable energy, ...
-
(CSCE 2013 General Conference, 2013)Sustainable technology innovations are created each year, but without being tested at a scale that is useful for demonstration and eventual replication, some are not advancing as quickly as they could. The “Campus as a ...
-
(Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing, 2019)This paper presents INRFlow, a mature, frugal, flow-level simulation framework for modelling large-scale networks and computing systems. INRFlow is designed to carry out performance-related studies of interconnection ...
-
(2018)Electric Vehicles (EVs) contribute to the mitigation of climate change through reduced greenhouse gas emissions, when powering with sustainable sources of electricity. The province of British Columbia (BC) is an attractive ...
-
(Water, 2019)A hydrological model was integrated with a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model to determine bacteria levels distributed throughout the Inverness stormwater pond in Calgary, Alberta. The Soil Conservation Service (SCS) ...
-
(2013-11-29)Requirements for today's systems are increasingly valid only within certain operating contexts. Requirements engineering and implementation stages of system development must carefully consider how to integrate ...
-
(Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2018-08)The objective of this paper is to demonstrate an interdisciplinary strategy combining both engineering- and biology-based approaches for stormwater and wastewater treatment. The work involves a novel and environmentally ...
-
(IEEE, 2004)This paper proposes a new 2D segmentation method for MR shoulder images. Due to the significant length of the image sequences, we aim at minimizing the user intervention in the segmentation process. Our method integrates ...
