Home on the Range: Factors Explaining Partial Migration of African Buffalo in a Tropical Environment
, 2012 Partial migration (when only some individuals in a population undertake seasonal migrations) is common in many species and geographical contexts. Despite the development of modern statistical methods for analyzing partial migration, there have been no ...

Influence of Test Temperature and Test Frequency on Fatigue Life of Aluminum Alloy EN AW‐2618A
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The influence of test temperature and test frequency on the fatigue life of EN AW‐2618A is investigated. High‐cycle fatigue tests are performed at different test temperatures and frequencies on the 1000 h/230°C overaged state. Both test parameters reduce fatigue life due to time‐dependent damage mechanisms.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The present study investigates recycling of NiTi shape memory alloys via vacuum induction melting. An ingot was synthesized from elemental Ni and Ti and subjected to three subsequent remelting cycles. Remelting increases process durations and impurity levels and adversely affects microstructures and functional properties.

A Low Complexity Spatial Texture Measurement for Fast CU Size Decision and Mode Decision in HEVC
, 2014 高效率視訊編碼是新一代的視訊壓縮標準.因為大量的新模式和四元樹的編碼單位架構,它能提供比前一代的標準大約兩倍的編碼效率,但是同時也使得計算複雜度大幅度上升。所以如何在幾乎不影響編碼效率的前提下,去減少計算複雜度是必須的。在我的論文中,根據影片內容複雜程度與否的特性在影格內編碼和影格間編碼提出了一個快速模式選擇方法。我首先分析了影片的內容複雜度跟模式選擇之間的關係,接著利用這個關係去進一步的加快編碼的速度。 在編碼效率只有微小下降的情況下,我所以提出的方法在影格內編碼可以節省最高53.4%,平均46.5 ...

Soft Mechanical‐Electrical Logic Using Liquid Metal‐Filled 3D‐Printed Architectures
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.We present 3D‐printed soft mechanical–electrical logic elements that use liquid metal–filled silicone tubes actuated by thermoplastic polyurethane/polylactic acid (TPU/PLA) architectures to produce Boolean operations. Complementary normally open and normally closed unit cells perform repeatable binary transitions and can be combined into more complex ...
