Effect of depth increment on damage in incremental sheet forming
Abstract. Fatigue strength of a part formed by incremental sheet forming (ISF) can potentially be improved by reducing the extent of damage, void area fraction, through control of process parameters. This study aimed to clarify the damage induced by ISF and the effect of process parameters, particularly depth increment during ISF, on the void area ...

Incrementally Learned Mixture Models for GNSS Localization
GNSS localization is an important part of today's autonomous systems, although it suffers from non-Gaussian errors caused by non-line-of-sight effects. Recent methods are able to mitigate these effects by including the corresponding distributions in the ...
