Earthquake Ground Motion Characteristics as a Function of a Preprocessing Procedure

open access: yesApplied Sciences
To enable the engineering application of earthquake ground motion records, this study establishes a standardized preprocessing procedure and systematically analyzes how each preprocessing step affects the characteristics of the ground motion data. Due to

Intelligent Adaptive Motion Control for Ground Wheeled Vehicles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper a new intelligent adaptive control is applied to solve a problem of motion control of ground vehicles with two independent wheels actuated by a differential drive.

On graph-like continua of finite length [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We extend the notion of effective resistance to metric spaces that are similar to graphs but can also be similar to fractals. Combined with other basic facts proved in the paper, this lays the ground for a construction of Brownian Motion on such spaces ...

Effects of Boundary Condition Models on the Seismic Responses of a Container Crane

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
In recent years, several large earthquakes have caused the collapse of container cranes, which have resulted in halting of freighting, and significantly affected the economy.

Multi-frame scene-flow estimation using a patch model and smooth motion prior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper addresses the problem of estimating the dense 3D motion of a scene over several frames using a set of calibrated cameras. Most current 3D motion estimation techniques are limited to estimating the motion over a single frame, unless a strong ...

A Computationally Efficient Ground-Motion Selection Algorithm for Matching a Target Response Spectrum Mean and Variance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Dynamic structural analysis often requires the selection of input ground motions with a target mean response spectrum. The variance of the target response spectrum is usually ignored or accounted for in an ad hoc manner, which can bias the structural ...

Identification and Analysis of Anomalous Ground Movements in Urban and Rural Areas Using Persistent Scatterer Interferometry in Southern Hesse, Germany

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Thanks to the open publication in recent years, the general public can now view and evaluate ground motion data. However, the data offered in web portals are often only optimized for display, and there is no automatic detection of hotspots and their ...

DAMAGE POTENTIAL OF EARTHQUAKE GROUND MOTIONS RECORDED IN SOUTHERN CENTRAL AMERICA

open access: yesIngeniería, 2013
A total of 18 different components of earthquake ground motion recorded in Central America were selected to conduct an evaluation oftheir damage potential. Emphasis was placed in ground motions recorded during recent seismic activity in Costa Rica.

Dressing of Ultracold Atoms by their Rydberg States in a Ioffe-Pritchard Trap

open access: yes, 2010
We explore how the extraordinary properties of Rydberg atoms can be employed to impact the motion of ultracold ground state atoms. Specifically, we use an off-resonant two-photon laser dressing to map features of the Rydberg states on ground state atoms.

Structure and energetics of helium adsorption on nanosurfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The ground and excited state properties of small helium clusters, 4He_N, containing nanoscale (~3-10 Angstroms) planar aromatic molecules have been studied with quantum Monte Carlo methods.
