Abrasive wear damages observation in engineering ceramics using micro-Raman tomography

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2023
Micro Raman tomographic imaging (mRTI) is an excellent measurement technique that can nondestructively measure and image the fracture state of the crystal lattice inside materials with a high spatial resolution.

Moving data off the shelf and into action: an intervention to improve data-informed decision making in Côte d'Ivoire [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal Health Action, 2014
Background: Improving a health system requires data, but too often they are unused or under-used by decision makers. Without interventions to improve the use of data in decision making, health systems cannot meet the needs of the populations they serve ...

Pilot Allocation Scheme for Pseudo-random Sequence Scrambling in Massive MIMO System

open access: yesJournal of Harbin University of Science and Technology, 2021
In this paper,a scheme of joint polar coordinate pilot assignment and pseudo-random code pilot design is proposed to solve the pilot contamination caused by the reuse of the same pilot sequence in each cell of the Massive MIMO system.

Elemental analysis of concrete via fast neutron transmission and scattering spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2022
We report on the development of neutron-based techniques to non-destructively measure the composition of concrete. Previous experimental studies demonstrated the viability of the unfolding technique to determine the ratio of water, sand and cement in ...

Associating the scale-up of insecticide-treated nets and use with the decline in all-cause child mortality in the Democratic Republic of Congo from 2005 to 2014

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2021
Background To reduce the malaria burden and improve the socioeconomic status of its citizens, the Democratic Republic of Congo scaled up key malaria control interventions, especially insecticide-treated nets (ITNs), between 2005 and 2014. Since then, the

Emotional States versus Mental Heart Rate Component Monitored via Wearables

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Psychiatric illnesses are estimated to account for over 15% of the burden of disease, which is more than all kinds of cancer together. Since mental disease is often preceded by issues in emotion processing, a method to objectively measure emotions in ...
