The Coastal Aerosol Transport (CAT) model was developed to study the evolution of aerosol particle size distributions and composition in the coastal environment. The model simulates such processes as particle production at the sea surface, mixing of particles through the boundary layer by turbulent diffusion, gravitational settling, and dry deposition. The model is initialized at the shoreline ...

El surf evoca un estilo de vida hedonista, errante y relajado. Unos valores que encajan perfectamente con la mentalidad millennial.
 Desde una perspectiva turística, existen dos formas diferentes consumir surf. Por lado serie personas visitarán destinos principalmente por recorrer olas, es decir presencia olas su motivación principal del viaje, mientras existe otro colectivo, mucho mayor e...

Second generation intact stability criteria for few past years had been under development by International Maritime Organization (IMO). Since the draft proposed amendments shall be amended to International code on Intact Stability (IS code 2008), new regulations shall enter into force for ships of length more than 24 meter. Generally second generation intact stability criteria (SGISC) refers to...

A technical report on Feature detection and implementing the Speeded-Up Robust Features(SURF)

Abstract Background Minimally invasive spine surgery is dependent on accurate navigation. Computer-assisted navigation increasingly used in minimally (MIS), but current solutions require the use of reference markers surgical field for both patient and instruments tracking. Purpose To improve reliability facilitate clinical workflow, this study proposes a new marker-free tracking framework based...

Recent advances in communication technologies and the proliferation of wireless computing and communication devices make the radio spectrum overcrowded. However, experiments from the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) reveals that the spectrum utilization varies from 15%− 85%. Consequently, Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs) are proposed to utilize the radio spectrum opportunistically. In type...

In this paper, we propose an intelligent and distributed channel selection strategy for efficient data dissemination in multi-hop cognitive radio network. Our strategy, SURF, classifies the available channels and uses them efficiently to increase data dissemination reliability in multi-hop cognitive radio networks. The classification is done on the basis of primary radio unoccupancy and of the ...
