Comparison of physical activity estimates using International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and accelerometry in fibromyalgia patients: the Al-Andalus study [PDF]
The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) has been widely used to assess physical activity in healthy 10 populations. The present study compared physical activity assessed by the long, self-administrated version of the International ...

PointHuman: Reconstructing Clothed Human from Point Cloud of Parametric Model [PDF]
It is very difficult to accomplish the 3D reconstruction of the clothed human body from a single RGB image, because the 2D image lacks the representation information of the 3D human body, especially for the clothed human body.

Large-Scale Atmospheric Transport in GEOS Replay Simulations [PDF]
Offline chemical transport models (CTMs) have traditionally been used to perform studies of atmospheric chemistry in a fixed dynamical environment. An alternative to using CTMs is to constrain the flow in a general circulation model using winds from ...

A Study of Reactor Neutrino Monitoring at Experimental Fast Reactor JOYO
We carried out a study of neutrino detection at the experimental fast reactor JOYO using a 0.76 tons gadolinium loaded liquid scintillator detector. The detector was set up on the ground level at 24.3m from the JOYO reactor core of 140MW thermal power ...

Cam-based passive variable friction device for structural control [PDF]
A solution to increasing the resiliency of civil structures with respect to natural and man-made hazards is the implementation of supplemental damping systems. These systems can be constructed using passive, active, and semi-active devices. In particular,
