Concepts-This guide summarizes the equipment, field procedures, and data processing methods used to interpret geologic conditions, and to identify and provide locations of geologic anomalies and man-made objects with the GPR method. Th...

A general review of the socio-economic impact of the intelligent transport system (ITS) is presented with a case study to demonstrate the data envelopment analysis method. Cost-benefit analyses are still the dominant method for evaluating ITS and other transport engineering projects, while cost effe...

This paper presents the process flow sheet of the main nuclear industrial units in Brazil and discusses some solvent extraction technical support required for these plants. The Center for the Development of Nuclear Technology-CDTN has been investigating alternative ways to supply the nuclear industr...

Extended Kaiman filter (EKF) is one of the most widely used methods for nonlinear system estimation. A new filtering algorithm, called particle filtering (PF) is introduced. PF can yield better performance than that of EKF, because PF does not involve the linearization approximating to nonlinear sys...
