Nonlinear Hamiltonian dynamics of Lagrangian transport and mixing in the ocean
Methods of dynamical system's theory are used for numerical study of transport and mixing of passive particles (water masses, temperature, salinity, pollutants, etc.) in simple kinematic ocean models composed with the main Eulerian coherent structures in

Structural Health Monitoring from the Window Seat of a Passenger Airplane [PDF]
Recent advances in computer vision and graphics have shown that regular, monocular cameras and video (e.g. cell phone cameras and Digital SLRs) can be used to identify the resonant frequencies of structures, and even image visually subtle operational ...

Sparsity in Dynamics of Spontaneous Subtle Emotions: Analysis \& Application
Spontaneous subtle emotions are expressed through micro-expressions, which are tiny, sudden and short-lived dynamics of facial muscles; thus poses a great challenge for visual recognition.

Reduced order modelling of air‐puff test for corneal material characterisation
Abstract Models of the fluid–structure interaction (FSI) model for the air‐puff test were analysed. Using Abaqus, the air‐puff test is applied to eyes with varying biomechanical parameters, such as material properties, corneal thickness, and radius.

Heart Rate Variability Extraction From Videos Signals: ICA vs. EVM Comparison
Medical researchers have always been interested in heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. However, nowadays, investigators from a variety of other fields are also probing the subject.

Micro-expression Recognition using Spatiotemporal Texture Map and Motion Magnification [PDF]
Micro-expressions are short-lived, rapid facial expressions that are exhibited by individuals when they are in high stakes situations. Studying these micro-expressions is important as these cannot be modified by an individual and hence offer us a peek ...

H2B: Heartbeat-based Secret Key Generation Using Piezo Vibration Sensors
We present Heartbeats-2-Bits (H2B), which is a system for securely pairing wearable devices by generating a shared secret key from the skin vibrations caused by heartbeat. This work is motivated by potential power saving opportunity arising from the fact

Asymmetry of the Ferroelectric Phase Transition in BaTiO3
Phase transitions are typically assumed to behave identically in forward and reverse. This work shows that in the ferroelectric material barium titanate this is not true: heating drives an abrupt, first‐order jump, while cooling gives a smooth, continuous change.

Defocusing digital particle image velocimetry and the three-dimensional characterization of two-phase flows [PDF]
Defocusing digital particle image velocimetry (DDPIV) is the natural extension of planar PIV techniques to the third spatial dimension. In this paper we give details of the defocusing optical concept by which scalar and vector information can be ...
