Using Lightweight Inference to Solve Lightweight Problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Traditionally, Logic Programming and related Non-monotonic Reasoning formalisms have mainly been applied to "hard" AI problems, such as planning, scheduling, constraint solving, belief revision, etc. In the real world of software engineering, however, these hard problems are vastly outnumbered by more mundane tasks.

An Experimental Investigation of the Influence of High-Frequency Standing Sound Waves on Depth Filtration Using Coarse-Pored Media

open access: yesSeparations, 2023
When a suspension passes through a high-frequency standing sound wave, the particles it contains are manipulated by acoustic forces. In a one-dimensional sound field, these forces lead to a planar arrangement of the particles and the formation of ...

Experimental Research on the Thermal-Consolidation Compound Forming of Thermosetting Fiber Metal Laminates Design for Complex Structures with Variable Curvature

open access: yesMetals, 2022
The glass fiber-reinforced metal laminates (GLARE) cannot be used to form complex laminate structures in the aerospace industry, because there is substantial variation in the plasticity of the heterogeneous materials.

A lightweight universe? [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998
How much matter is there in the universe? Does the universe have the critical density needed to stop its expansion, or is the universe underweight and destined to expand forever? We show that several independent measures, especially those utilizing the largest bound systems known—clusters of galaxies—all indicate that the mass-density of the universe ...

Damage-induced changes in elastic stiffness of DP800 sheets at large strains [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences
Damage is associated with the performance of formed components. Quantifying its influence is challenging due to interactions with other product properties such as strain hardening, texture and residual stresses.
