Steady-State Visual Evoked Potentials (SSVEPs) are widely used in spatial selective attention. In this process the two kinds of visual simulators, Light Emitting Diode (LED) and Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), are commonly used to evoke SSVEP. In this paper, the differences of SSVEP caused by these two stimulators in the study of spatial selective attention were investigated. Results indicated th...

Be they steady state or transient state, "Process simulators" can be split in two categories: simulators with a sequential modular approach and simulators with a global resolution approach. Both approaches are often opposed and present specific advantages and disadvantages. The work reported here consists in reconciling those two approaches. It was carried out in Ariane, a software dedicated to...

It is desired to make the Economic Plantwide Control design procedure proposed by Skogestad (2000, 2004, 2012) available for engineers without deep knowledge of process control or optimization. The integration of the use of commercial process simulators to obtain the process model could be a useful tool for the automation of the economic plantwide design procedure. However, process simulators a...

Thousands of farm ponds disappeared on the tableland in Taoyuan County, Taiwan since 1920s. The number of farm ponds that have disappeared is 1,895 (37%), 2,667 ponds remain (52%), and only 537 (11%) new ponds were created within a 757 km(2) area in Taoyuan, Taiwan between 1926 and 1960. In this study, a geographic information system (GIS) and logistic stepwise regression model were used to det...
