A load estimation algorithm based on k-means cluster analysis was developed. The algorithm applies cluster centres – of previously clustered load profiles – and distance functions to estimate missing and future measurements. Canberra, Manhattan, Euclidean, and Pearson correlation distances were investigated. Several case studies were implemented using daily and segmented load profiles of aggreg...

The growing availability of low-power sensors, microprocessors, and transmitters makes it increasingly attractive to use distributed sensor networks for track-health monitoring. Widespread implementation of these networks will require robust and low-maintenance methods for powering the electronics. This research investigates two principal methods of harvesting mechanical power from passing rail...

XX model on the circle

We diagonalize the XX model with a finite number of spins and periodic boundary conditions. We solve for the ground state, focus on the rapidity of the convergence to the thermodynamic limit and study the features of multipartite entanglement.

Prevalence of Cryptosporidium spp. in children with diarrhoea in the West Bank, Palestine.

This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence of Cryptosporidium spp. in children (n=760) with diarrhea aged 1 month to 13 years, living in urban areas (n=234), rural areas (n=394) and refugee camps (n=132). Samples were collected, stained by modified acid fast stain, and examined microscopically for oocysts. The overall prevalence was 11.6% (88/760). The prevalence was higher in refug...
