Microwave Current Imaging in Passive HTS Components by Low-Temperature Laser Scanning Microscopy (LTLSM) [PDF]
We have used the LTLSM technique for a spatially resolved investigation of the microwave transport properties, nonlinearities and material inhomogeneities in an operating coplanar waveguide YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta} (YBCO) microwave resonator on an LaAlO_3 ...

The teacher as action researcher : Using technology to capture pedagogic form [PDF]
The paper argues that we make best use of learning technologies if we begin with an understanding of educational problems, and use this analysis to target the solutions we should be demanding from technology.

Discrete element simulation of crack resistance of asphalt pavement with geotextile reinforced graded gravel base [PDF]
To address reflective cracking in semi-rigid base asphalt pavements, conventional graded gravel transition layers are found to cause anisotropy errors in finite element simulations and be prone to plastic deformation; therefore, this study proposes a ...

Reflective cracking behavior for traffic and temperature effects [PDF]
This paper presents a study on the influence of the effects of temperature variations, in comparison with traffic effects, on the reflective cracking overlay behavior. It is intended to contribute to the improvement of the pavement overlay design methods which consider reflective cracking as one among distress criteria.
