Underwater radiated noise is part of the anthropogenic emissions into the environment and as such a pressing problem for the preservation of the marine ecosystem.In order to direct attention to the most relevant noise sources associated with ships it is crucial to precisely determine the local origins of the acoustic emissions.As acoustics are by n

This paper uses practical experimentation to analyse the effect of replacing SF6 with pure CO2 in conventional gas insulated transmission line sections by studying partial discharge measurements taken with applied voltages up to 242 kV (rms).The results can also help in understanding the properties of new alternative gas Horse Saddle Accessories mi

The behavior of concrete deep beams internally-reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars around regions of discontinuity is investigated.Twelve deep beam specimens were tested.One specimen was solid whereas the remaining eleven Sweatpants specimens included an opening in the shear span.Test variables included the opening height, co

This paper presents an original stochastic method of optimization (PGSL) for optimum design of truss structures.PGSL (Probabilistic Global Search Lausanne, developed at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology at Lausanne) has been inter-faced with a finite element code, then applied and tested on several size optimization problems of plane truss

A neuromorphic simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) system shows potential for more efficient implementation than its traditional counterpart.At the mean time a neuromorphic model of spatial encoding neurons in silicon could provide insights on the functionality and dynamic between each group of cells.Especially when realistic factors inclu
