Shonan challenge for generative programming: short position paper
(ACM, 2013)The appeal of generative programming is "abstraction without guilt": eliminating the vexing trade-off between writing high-level code and highly-performant code. Generative programming also promises to formally capture the ... -
Shoulder glenohumeral elevation estimation based on upper arm orientation
(IEEE, 2018-10-26)In this paper, the shoulder glenohumeral displacement during the movement of the upper arm is studied. Four modeling approaches were examined and compared to estimate the humeral head elevation (vertical displacement) and ... -
SiameseFuse: A computationally efficient and a not-so-deep network to fuse visible and infrared images
(Elsevier, 2022-09)Recent developments in pattern analysis have motivated many researchers to focus on developing deep learning based solutions in various image processing applications. Fusing multi-modal images has been one such application ... -
Signal to noise ratio optimization for a CMUT based medical ultrasound imaging system
(IEEE, 2015)CMUTs offers key performance benefits compared to their piezoelectric counterparts. However, CMUTs are not widely adopted in commercial ultrasound imaging systems due to low signal to noise ratio (SNR) in the obtained ... -
Silver patterning using an atomic force microscope tip and laser-induced chemical deposition from liquids
(AIP Publishing, 2012)This article presents a new direct patterning technique in which laser photoreduction of silver from a liquid is controlled by a scanning atomic force microscope tip. Contrary to expectations, the tip suppresses, rather ... -
A simplified approach for site-specific design spectrum
(Springer, 2018)The design acceleration spectrum requires site investigations and site-response analyses in accordance with the local seismic hazard. The variability in earthquake source and path effects may be considered using a large ... -
A simplified guide on BIM integration to mitigate facilities management risks of modular construction projects
(Springer, 2022)Building Information Modelling (BIM) has been upscaling throughout the years being highly interoperable. In modular construction, projects have limited scope for alterations at later stages because of exorbitant costs. It ... -
Simplified transfer function approach for modeling frequency dependency of damping characteristics of rubber bushings
(Sage, 2019-09)Physical systems that consist of parts and vibration isolators such as rubber bushings are usually modeled in multibody simulations, where parts are represented as rigid bodies with their mass and inertia properties and ... -
Simulation and analysis of a TET-walker robot motion
(IEEE, 2014)Tetrahedral walker robots are a group of reconfigurable robots which makes them adaptable for the full spectrum of activities in places that wheeled robots are inapplicable. In this paper, two different gaits for a ... -
Simulation of vehicles’ gap acceptance decision at unsignalized intersections using SUMO
(Elsevier, 2022)In this paper, an artificial neural network (ANN)-based gap acceptance behavior model was proposed. The feasibility of implementing this model in a microscopic simulation tool was tested using the application programming ... -
A simulation study of cooperative underwater acoustic communication
(2012-08)Cooperative communication promises significant performance gains in terms of link reliability, spectral efficiency, system capacity, and transmission range. Due to its indisputable advantages for high-speed underwater ... -
Simulation-based design and locomotion control implementation for a lower body exoskeleton
(IEEE, 2022)This paper proposes a simulation-based design and locomotion control methodology for an exoskeleton that is aimed at providing assistance to users with ambulatory difficulties. To increase the power-to-weight ratio while ... -
Simultaneous human-robot adaptation for effective skill transfer
(IEEE, 2015)In this paper, we propose and implement a human-in-the loop robot skill synthesis framework that involves simultaneous adaptation of the human and the robot. In this framework, the human demonstrator learns to control the ... -
Simultaneous improvement in strength and ductility of severely deformed niobium alloy
(Elsevier, 2020-11-15)The present study is on the improved monotonic response of a severely deformed niobium-based alloy. Nb-1Zr alloy was processed at room temperature using equal channel angular extrusion and cold rolling. After 16 passes, a ... -
Simultaneous lightwave information and power transfer in underwater visible light communications
(IEEE, 2019)Visible light communication (VLC) has emerged as a high-capacity connectivity solution for underwater sensor networks. Since water is relatively transparent to blue or green light, visible light lasers or LEDs can be used ... -
Single color networks: OFDM-based visible light broadcasting
(IEEE, 2015)In this study, we investigate the performance of optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (O-OFDM) based visible light broadcasting. Although indoor spaces usually have more than one light source, most of the ... -
Single item periodic review inventory control with sales dependent stochastic return flows
(Elsevier, 2023-01)Retailers have to deal with increasing levels of product returns as the shares of e-commerce sales soars. With this increase, it is no longer feasible to dispatch returned products to outlets or landfills, hence retailers ... -
Single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) VLC system and application to downhole monitoring
(IEEE, 2014)In this paper, it is demonstrated for the first time that the problem of continuous downhole monitoring in the oil and gas industry is effectively addressed by the use of visible light communication (VLC). As a reliable, ... -
Single photon detection with silicon-based avalanche photodiode
(SPIE, 2023)Thanks to the significant advances in quantum technologies, the use of single photon detectors (SPDs) is becoming increasingly common. As a result of the excellent photodetection performance of these detectors, they have ... -
Site characterization for site response analysis in performance based approach
(Springer, 2022)The local seismic hazard analysis would yield probabilistic uniform hazard acceleration response spectrum on the engineering bedrock outcrop. Thus, site-specific response analyses need to produce a probabilistic uniform ...
