Damage detection of skeletal structures using particle swarm optimizer with passive congregation (PSOPC) algorithm via incomplete modal data
This paper uses a PSOPC model based non-destructive damage identification procedure using frequency and modal data. The objective function formulation for the minimization problem is based on the frequency changes. The method is demonstrated by using a cantilever beam, four-bay plane truss and two-bay two-story plane frame with different scenarios. In this study, the modal data are provided nume...
متن کاملAssessing the Angular Density of Passive Microwave L-band Data
With the launch of the European Space Agency’s (ESA) Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission on 2 November 2009, there is a new opportunity for global near-surface soil moisture mapping from space [1-2]. Along with its innovative sensor design, a 2-dimensional array of L-band passive microwave radiometers distributed on a Y-shaped synthetic aperture antenna, a new generation of retrieva...
متن کاملAccumulation rate changes in central Greenland from passive microwave data
Numerical modeling based on radiative transfer theory and observations of grain growth with depth have indicated that passive microwave brightness temperatures over the polar ice sheets should be a function of accumulation rate. Using accumulationrate time series from nine shallow cores in the dry-snow facies in central Greenland, we find that multi-year averages of mean annual SMMR brightness ...
متن کاملEnhanced Sea Ice Concentrations from Passive Microwave Data
1. Introduction Sea ice concentration is usually defined as the fraction of ice covered area within an observational field, which in our case is the footprint of the satellite sensor. This assumes that the ocean surface is binary, i.e., either ice covered or ice free. With the binary characterization of the ice covered surface in mind, ice concentration can be quantified from satellite instrume...
متن کاملImproving passive microwave sea ice concentration algorithms for coastal areas: applications to the Baltic Sea
Sea ice concentration can be retrieved from passive microwave data using the NASA Team algorithm or the Artist Sea Ice (ASI) algorithm, for example. The brightness temperature measurements obtained from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) instrument or the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer-EOS (AMSR-E) are commonly used for this purpose. Due to the coarse resolution of these instru...
