The superconducting proximity effect was examined in both Nb/PdNi (SF) bilayer films and Nb/PdNi/Nb (SFS) Josephson junctions. In Nb/PdNi bilayer films, nonmonotonic behavior of Tc was observed as a function of PdNi thickness dF. The effective exchange energy Eex extracted from the data was about 13 meV. In Nb/PdNi/Nb (SFS) Josephson junctions, the existence of a crossover between the 0 state a...

We propose a system for estimating a user’s view direction with its location of a captured image by retrieving its corresponding region from panoramas in a database. In our database, 104 panoramas captured within a local area are stored. For retrieving a user’s location, the query image captured by the user’s planarprojection camera is compared with all the panoramas in the database. SURF is us...

The central goal of this project is a deeper understanding of the dynamic adjustment of mobile sandy sediments to fluid forcing in and near the surf zone at small (1cm to 10m) and intermediate (10m to 100m) horizontal scales. The effort is motivated by the dual need to develop more realistic models of fluid-sediment interactions in the nearshore zone, and for suitable in situ measurement techni...

Due to their open nature and popularity, Android-based devices have attracted several end-users around the World are one of main targets for attackers. Because reasons given above, it is necessary build tools that can reliably detect zero-day malware on these devices. At moment, many frameworks been proposed applications leverage Machine Learning (ML) techniques. However, an essential requireme...

Research on teachers’ professional learning and development (PLD) has investigated the nature design of such initiatives, itemising characteristics that promote high-quality PLD outcomes for individual teachers. However, much teachers happens as they work together to consider discuss their ability implement new learning. Features create teacher collaboration have not been explicitly pinpointed ...
