Tungsten fibers have high tensile strength but a poor oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures. Using this first characteristic and to prevent oxidation of tungsten coated composite materials in which the primary req...

This technical report covers a set of experiments on the 64-core SPARC T3-4 system, comparing it to two similar AMD and Intel systems. Key characteristics as maximum integer and floating point arithmetic throughput are measured as well as memory throughput, showing the scalability of the SPARC T3-4 system. The performance of POSIX threads primitives is characterized and compared in detail, such...

This technical report presents a formulation of the parameter estimation and model selection problem for Autoregressive (AR) and Moving Average (MA) models in the Minimum Message Length (MML) framework. In particular, it examines suitable priors for both classes of models, and subsequently derives message length expressions based on the MML87 approximation. Empirical results demonstrate the new...

In this paper, we present two Human-Robot interfaces for underwater robot teleoperation. This work is in the context of the Digital Ocean Europe project 1 that aims at digitalizing seafloor sites in 3D imagery using underwater robots (ROVs), and uses this information in order to edit interactive, virtually animated environments that are diffused online. The work presented in this paper concerns...

We introduce a method for detecting whether two users are engaged in focused interaction using a windowed correlation measure on their acoustic signals, assuming that a continued exchange of verbal turns contributes to anticorrelation of acoustic activity. We tested our method with manually annotated transitions between focused and unfocused interaction stemming from experiments on AR-based coo...

This paper examines the concept of Augmented reality and its various applications in civil engineering. The concept envisages reducing, or rather eliminating errors that creep in during construction process due to human and other technical errors. The concept of AR helps in recreating the architectural and structural drawings in actual scale on the field. This uses the techniques of holographic...

The rare decays B0 s,d → `+`− are analyzed within the general framework of the aligned two-Higgs doublet model. We present a complete one-loop calculation of the relevant short-distance Wilson coefficients, giving a detailed technical summary of our results and comparing them with previous calculations performed in particular limits or approximations. We investigate the impact of various model ...
