Principal loading analysis [PDF]
This paper proposes a tool for dimension reduction where the dimension of the original space is reduced: a Principal Loading Analysis (PLA). PLA is a tool to reduce dimensions by discarding variables. The intuition is that variables are dropped which distort the covariance matrix only by a little.

Steering vector errors and diagonal loading [PDF]
Diagonal loading is one of the most widely used and effective methods to improve robustness of adaptive beamformers. In this paper, we consider its application to the case of steering vector errors, i.e.

Stamina of a non-gasketed flange joint under combined internal pressure, axial and bending loading : an experimental study [PDF]
The performance of a bolted flange joint is characterized mainly by its 'strength' and 'sealing capability'. A number of numerical and experimental studies have been conducted to study these characteristics under internal pressure loading conditions alone.
