Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Urban Vulnerability in Guangzhou
The evaluation of urban vulnerability is of great significance to improve the quality of urbanization. An urban vulnerability index system was developed from four aspects of population vulnerability, economic vulnerability, social vulnerability and ...

Peripheral Vision Transformer [PDF]
Human vision possesses a special type of visual processing systems called peripheral vision. Partitioning the entire visual field into multiple contour regions based on the distance to the center of our gaze, the peripheral vision provides us the ability to perceive various visual features at different regions.

Drive and measurement electrode patterns for electrode impedance tomography (EIT) imaging of neural activity in peripheral nerve [PDF]
Objective: To establish the performance of several drive and measurement patterns in EIT imaging of neural activity in peripheral nerve, which involves large impedance change in the nerve's anisotropic length axis. Approach: Eight drive and measurement electrode patterns are compared using a finite element (FE) four cylindrical shell model of a ...

Viscous potential flow analysis of peripheral heavy ion collisions [PDF]
The conditions for the development of a Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) for the Quark-gluon Plasma (QGP) flow in a peripheral heavy-ion collision is investigated. The projectile and target side particles are separated by an energetically motivated hypothetical surface, characterized with a phenomenological surface tension.

XPert: Peripheral Circuit & Neural Architecture Co-search for Area and Energy-efficient Xbar-based Computing [PDF]
The hardware-efficiency and accuracy of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) implemented on In-memory Computing (IMC) architectures primarily depend on the DNN architecture and the peripheral circuit parameters. It is therefore essential to holistically co-search the network and peripheral parameters to achieve optimal performance. To this end, we propose XPert,

Boundary Layer and Formation of Peripheral Nonuniformity in a Turbine Scroll.
A detailed experimental investigation was carried out to examine the three-dimensional boundary layer characteristics in a radial inflow turbine scroll. Some basic flow phenomena and growth of secondary flow were also investigated. In the inlet region of the scroll, the incoming boundary layer begins to assume a skewed nature, namely the radially ...

Insights into air cushion dynamics during drop impact on heated substrate at low impact energy [PDF]
We study the air layer dynamics beneath a drop impinging a heated surface at low impact energy using high-speed reflection interferometry imaging and theoretical analysis. The air film has been subdivided into two distinct disjoint regions, the central dimple and the peripheral disc. We decipher that a gaussian profile can approximate the dynamic shape

Peripheral Oxygen Saturation in Older Persons Wearing Nonmedical Face Masks in Community Settings.
This study describes changes in portable oximeter (pulse ox)-measured peripheral oxygen saturation (Sp o 2 or O2 sat) in older adults before, while, and after the wearing of a 3-layer plane-shaped disposable nonmedical face mask widely used to protect ...
