1.1 This practice covers a uniform protocol for evaluating the performance of systems used to detect releases of regulated substances from underground storage tank systems or facilities. This practice applies to users, manufacturers, vendors, government regulators, and others using or concerned w...

Most sensors or cameras discussed in the sensor network community are usually 3D homogeneous, even though their 2D coverage areas in the ground plane are heterogeneous. Meanwhile, observed objects of camera networks are usually simplified as 2D points in previous literature. However in actual applic...

This paper presents a cost-effective driving system for automotive applications based on a double rotor electrically excited flux switching machine (FSM). Benefiting from a double rotor topology, this FSM can realize a drum winding design and thus winding ends are effectively shorten and the copper ...

An algorithm is presented for estimating the direction and strength of point light with the strength of ambient illumination. Existing approaches evaluate these illumination parameters directly in the high dimensional image space, while we estimate the parameters in two steps: first by projecting th...

Information on brain metabolism is very important, especially concerning the sequence of hypoxi c-ischemic episodes. Utrasound, magnetic resonance image (MRI) and corrputer-aided topography (CAT) allow visualization of changes due to hemorrhages. However, these methods do not detect the biochemical ...
