Design of electromagnetic (EM) actuators often involves solving a magnetic field problem. This paper presents an adaptive meshless method (MLM) that inherits many advantages of the finite-element method (FEM) but needs no explicit mesh structure for design of EM actuators. Specifically, the paper offers a technique to estimate the distribution of numerical errors and a scheme that automatically...

The Multilayer Model (MLM) has been used for many years to infer dry deposition fluxes from measured trace species concentrations and standard meteorological measurements for national networks in the U.S., including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Clean Air Status and Trends Network (CASTNet). MLM utilizes a resistance analogy to calculate deposition velocities appropriate for whole ...

In this paper, we propose to use a multi-longitudinal-mode (MLM) laser as the source of an infinite-impulse response (IIR) microwave photonic filter (MPF) to obtain GHz level free spectral range (FSR). The response function of such an IIR-MPF and the degree of coherence of the laser are discussed theoretically. The degree of coherence of the MLM laser shows a periodic structure which is signifi...

Research in estimating multilevel models (MLM) from complex survey data is quite recent. Not only has this research resulted in several popular software packages incorporating sampling weights into estimating MLM, but it has emphasized an important point often overlooked by both analysts and providers of the survey data: the sampling weights used for multilevel analysis need to be constructed d...

Recognition of human activities aims a wide diversity of applications. However, identifying complicated activities continues a challenging and active research area. In this work, we assess a new approach of feature selection for human activity recognition. For the task, we also compare state-of-the-art classifiers, e.g., Bayes classifier, kNN, MLP, SVM, MLM and MLM-NN. Based on the experiments,...

In the development process of the information of the mining engineering, it is difficult to directly exchange and share information in the different phases and different application system, which causes the information isolation and information gap due to lack of unified data exchange standards and information integration mechanism. The purpose of this research is to build a modeling framework ...

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been widely used in genetic dissection of complex traits. However, common methods are all based on a fixed-SNP-effect mixed linear model (MLM) and single marker analysis, such as efficient mixed model analysis (EMMA). These methods require Bonferroni correction for multiple tests, which often is too conservative when the number of markers is extremely...

In this paper, it is tried to find an approximate single layer equivalent for multi-layer graphene sheets based on third order non-local elasticity theory. The plates are embedded in two parameter Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation, and also the thermal effects are considered. A uniform transverse load is imposed on the plates. Applying the non-local theory of Eringen based on third order she...

in this paper, a generalized method for accurate full-wave analysis of shielded mic's and the three-layer microstrip structure enclosed in a rectangular cavity based on mixed potential integral equation (mpie) derived in real space have been developed. method of moments (mom) with galerkin technique has been used for the solution of the integral equation to obtain the surface electric currents ...
