Unbiased Cultural Transmission in Time-Averaged Archaeological Assemblages [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
Unbiased models are foundational in the archaeological study of cultural transmission. Applications have as- sumed that archaeological data represent synchronic samples, despite the accretional nature of the archaeological record.

A Subbuteo‐Inspired Rolling Isolation System for Protecting Rigid Blocks

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates a Subbuteo‐inspired rolling isolation system (RIS) as an effective means for protecting rigid blocks. The block is assumed to be rigidly connected to a curved base sector, allowing it to roll back and forth freely under dynamic excitations. The intrinsic trait of the proposed isolation concept is that the rigid block is

Enhanced Objectivity of AHP for More Reliable Solar Farm Site Selection

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
While the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was originally designed for subjectively relatable criteria, there may also be objectively defined relationships or consensus on certain criteria pairs. To incorporate these objective relationships and consensuses, this study introduces the analytical hierarchy process with optimized hierarchy (AHP‐OH).

The satellite archaeological survey of Egypt [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2011
A recent announcement of some pyramids, buried under the sand of Egypt and discovered by means of infrared remote sensing, renewed the interest on the archaeological surveys aided by satellites. Here we propose the use of images, obtained from those of Google Maps after some processing to enhance their details, to locate archaeological remains in Egypt.
