We measured multichannel EEG spectra during a continuous mental arithmetic task and created statistical learning models of cognitive fatigue for single subjects. Sixteen subjects (4 F, 18-38 y) viewed 4-digit problems on a computer, solved the problems, and pressed keys to respond (inter-trial interval = 1 s). Subjects performed until either they felt exhausted or three hours had elapsed. Prean...

Hysteresis patterns of different sediment particle sizes were studied via a detailed laboratory study and modelling. Seven continuous rainfall events with stepwisevarying rainfall intensities (15, 30, 45, 60, 45, 30 and 15 mmh-1, each 20 min duration) were conducted using a 5-m× 2-m erosion flume. Flow rates and sediment concentration data were measured using flume discharge samples, and interp...
